@copilot-cli-release-app copilot-cli-release-app released this 04 Sep 03:01

Added

  • Show running Copilot sessions in the Windows 11 taskbar with live hover status cards

Improved

  • On macOS and Linux, sandboxed commands can no longer reach services running on your machine. On macOS this also blocks a server the command itself starts on 127.0.0.1, so test suites that bind a local port will fail; turn on Allow local network in /sandbox to reach localhost again.
  • Linux sandboxing now needs slirp4netns, nsenter, iptables, ip6tables, iptables-restore and ip6tables-restore on PATH. Install them if sandboxed commands start failing to launch.

Fixed

  • A session lock that is re-entered on the same thread now fails with a reported error instead of freezing the CLI.
  • Kerberos proxy authentication reconnects when the initial challenge answers with Connection: close
  • Sandboxed gh commands now authenticate as the account configured for the repository instead of the Copilot CLI login
  • MCP tools remain callable after MCP server restarts

@copilot-cli-release-app copilot-cli-release-app released this 03 Sep 16:55

Added

  • Add Client ID Metadata Document (CIMD) support for MCP OAuth sign-in

Improved

  • CLI starts without the interrupted-session restore prompt by default.
  • Resuming large sessions keeps the input prompt responsive sooner.

Fixed

  • Sandboxed file tools now read the same developer-tool paths as sandboxed shell commands, including token-bearing registry config such as ~/.npmrc; set sandbox.allowDevToolAccess to false to turn these grants off
  • Stopping a timed-out shell command now lets queued messages run and sessions return to idle
  • A follow-up prompt typed while autopilot is running no longer disappears from the timeline
  • Restart provides clearer update guidance when automatic restart cannot be completed
  • MCP servers configured by your agent stay available after built-in sub-agent turns.
  • Anthropic sessions continue after temporary fallback instead of failing on invalid thinking signatures
  • Long-running sessions on Linux return freed memory to the system instead of holding gigabytes of it
  • Enterprise-denied MCP servers can no longer start before the managed allow/deny policy resolves; server startup now waits for the managed-settings fetch instead of racing it
  • Host-provided plugin customizations can be read without redundant path permission prompts

Removed

  • Remove retired Claude and Gemini models from /model picker results

@copilot-cli-release-app copilot-cli-release-app released this 02 Sep 06:35

Added

  • Custom agents can list several models in model, tried in order until one is available to you, and model-policy: required keeps model changes on that list
  • Adding support for claude-fable-5.1

Improved

  • Linux sandboxes now restrict network egress to the configured proxy; proxy mode requires slirp4netns, util-linux 2.35+, iptables, and /dev/net/tun access

@copilot-cli-release-app copilot-cli-release-app released this 01 Sep 17:19

Added

  • Add Recent, Created, Name, and classic None sorting to the split Sessions sidebar, with the selected order saved across restarts
  • Enterprise admins can pin sign-in to approved GitHub organizations with the forceLoginOrgs managed setting

Improved

  • /mcp config and the MCP add/edit/authenticate forms now open in the plugins dashboard instead of a separate MCP manager, so closing a form returns to the server list.
  • File path autocomplete stays fast in large repositories
  • Plugin list commands and /plugin now show bundled built-in plugins.
  • Improve sandboxed Bazel and Bazelisk runs by granting required cache and output paths; macOS requires a future Bazel release or additional sandbox capabilities
  • The collapsed autopilot goal panel now reads as a single-line pinned prompt, keeping the frame it shares with a pinned prompt instead of compressing into a bare band wedged against the chrome above it

Fixed

  • A relative --add-dir or --plugin-dir path now resolves against the session's working directory under --resume=<id> and --worktree, instead of the directory the CLI was launched from. Relative values are also resolved after -C is applied, so -C no longer has to precede either option on the command line
  • MCP servers contributed by a plugin are no longer labelled "User" in the MCP dashboard, and a server from a bundled plugin is now shown as built-in and names the plugin it came from.

@copilot-cli-release-app copilot-cli-release-app released this 31 Aug 14:46

Added

  • Add automatic HTTPS proxy mTLS client certificate support for model and web requests
  • Detect the herdr terminal multiplexer instead of mistaking it for tmux, so the Kitty keyboard protocol, color scheme following, terminal progress, /copy and notifications work in herdr panes

Improved

  • Improve /sandbox policy by grouping path grants by source and showing detected developer tools

Fixed

  • The newest line of output stays visible above the input box instead of hiding behind it, except while a prompt is pinned to the top of the transcript
  • Exporting a resumed session with --share or --share-gist writes the whole transcript instead of only the latest run

  • A message typed while /worktree or /move is preparing the worktree no longer breaks the switch into it
  • Ctrl+E expands the plan approval card to show the full plan again
  • Show the specific authentication failure (such as 401 Bad credentials) instead of only the /login prompt
