Release Notes

2026-10-05 - Add copilot config subcommands to list, read, set, and remove settings. - Add a pre-conversation Ctrl+E environment picker to switch between local and cloud runs - Entra-protected MCP servers can silently renew access-token-only credentials. - Legacy HTTP+SSE MCP connections no longer hang indefinitely when a message POST is never acknowledged; the acknowledgement is bounded by the server's configured timeout - Voice runtime install errors name why the download from nuget.org failed, not only the fallback feed's 401 - Compaction keeps your latest prompt when requests exceed context limits - Large Anthropic requests rejected by provider size limits now retry after downscaling images or removing attachments - Custom agent model entries keep model-bound reasoning effort only when that model is selected - Shell tool calls now stream live stdout and stderr output reliably in the timeline - Usage reporting preserves provider-reported reasoning token totals when available - Sessions no longer slow to a crawl for minutes after the agent writes a very large file in one step - Sandboxed shells now withhold ambient GITHUBTOKEN unless explicitly configured. - Plan usage reflects the current billing period after quota resets - Custom agents launched through ACP task calls now resolve and run correctly - Remote session resume now uses your configured GitHub auth for --resume and --connect - Entra sign-in falls back to browser auth when no broker is available and shows a manual URL when auto-open fails - copilot sandbox ca commands now respect --config-dir (including with -C). - Search commands avoid sandbox bypass prompts when access is already granted - Sandboxed uv commands can write to the uv cache by default when dev tool access is enabled - pnpm commands run in sandboxed sessions without lock-file permission errors - Pressing n repeatedly in the Sessions tab reliably creates each new session - Reverse search updates results when command history finishes loading at startup - MCP tools recover within the same turn when server instructions change - Changing experimental mode with /experimental or /settings takes effect after restart even when launched with an opposing experimental flag - Keyboard, paste, and mouse input now stay ordered and responsive during rapid interaction. - Sandboxed shell commands offer a network bypass prompt whenever the proxy blocks a destination - Sandboxed scripts that run Git now authenticate with masked credentials and SSH remote rewrites - Sub-agents keep working after you replace your GitHub authentication credentials - Sandboxed commands on Windows write temporary files to the granted temp directory, so tools that rename a temp file into place work - Prompt-mode sessions fire a single sessionEnd hook after Stop-hook continuations complete - Reconnect to remote MCP servers after idle Streamable HTTP sessions expire - Messaging a running background agent now steers its active turn at the next processing opportunity. - Context rollovers keep your latest requests in the recovery context. - Hide the automatic sandbox CA setup prompt on Windows accounts that cannot self-elevate - Copilot no longer describes a subagent as configured when the current session cannot run it. Previously a session that could not use rubber-duck still reported it as set up in /subagents, and asking for it failed instead of being skipped cleanly. - MCP tools continue working after OAuth reauthentication when tool definitions are unchanged - Select which account to use after Microsoft Entra sign-in, and let /logout sign out those OAuth sessions. - Improve first-run startup by extracting the bundled CLI package in a child process - Improve startup responsiveness when connecting many MCP servers at once - Canvas actions can now return images to the model in invokecanvasaction. - Remove retired models from the model picker and supported CLI selections
