What's new in GitHub Copilot CLI

The latest GitHub Copilot CLI release is v1.0.112, released Nov 13, 2026. 13 releases shipped in the last 30 days.

November 2026: GitHub Copilot CLI adds /code, a unified /settings dashboard and sandbox CIDR rules

So far in November 2026, GitHub Copilot CLI has added a /code command that opens the current session in VS Code, a unified /settings dashboard with global search, and CIDR support for sandbox network rules. Five releases have shipped, from v1.0.106 to v1.0.110, and the month is still in progress.

Sandboxing got the most attention: a Sandbox extensions setting runs extension processes inside the sandbox, sandbox host allow and deny rules accept IPv4/IPv6 CIDR ranges, and a running local MCP server is restarted after /cd so it follows the new directory's denied paths. New models appear under New models in the picker for eligible accounts, including GPT-6.1 Terra and Claude Fable 5.2. Opt-in session @mentions, /index commands and an experimental masked dialog for git, ssh and sudo password prompts (enabled with /experimental on) also landed. The rest is fixes for prompt input, Windows paths, /compact, /model and startup from a deleted directory.

  • /code opens the current session in VS Code; /settings now opens a unified dashboard with global search (v1.0.106)
  • IPv4/IPv6 CIDR support for sandbox host allow and deny rules in settings (v1.0.109)
  • GPT-6.1 Terra and Claude Fable 5.2 selectable under New models when available to your account (v1.0.106, v1.0.109)
  • Experimental masked dialog for git, ssh and sudo password prompts from agent commands, enabled with /experimental on (v1.0.110)
  • New /index commands, and Ctrl+C now stops a running /compact (v1.0.108)
  • Starting copilot from a deleted directory now explains how to recover instead of crashing; -C <directory> works from there (v1.0.110)

October 2026: GitHub Copilot CLI adds sandbox for all users, Assisted Permissions and new models

GitHub Copilot CLI's main change so far in October 2026 is command sandboxing becoming available to all users through /sandbox and --sandbox (v1.0.93), followed by steady work on permissions and sandbox behavior. Fourteen releases have shipped so far, from v1.0.91 to v1.0.105, and the month is still in progress.

Sandbox additions include copilot sandbox ca commands for proxy CA trust (v1.0.91), secret-masking suggestions in sandbox settings (v1.0.96), and /add-dir granting sandbox access for the session. Assisted Permissions gained an assistedApprovalInstructions setting and no longer need experimental mode (v1.0.104), and the timeline now shows who made each permission decision. Other changes: copilot config subcommands and a Ctrl+E environment picker (v1.0.92), agent-scoped declarative hooks (v1.0.97), --disable-client-telemetry and a /share menu (v1.0.100), and Claude Haiku 5.5 and Gemini 4 Argon in model selection. The rest of the month was mostly fixes for MCP, plugins, Gemini tool calls and Windows sandbox behavior.

  • Command sandboxing is available to all users via /sandbox and --sandbox (v1.0.93)
  • copilot sandbox ca commands check, create, trust, rotate and remove proxy CA trust (v1.0.91)
  • copilot config subcommands list, read, set and remove settings; Ctrl+E picks local or cloud runs (v1.0.92)
  • Assisted Permissions add assistedApprovalInstructions and no longer need experimental mode (v1.0.101, v1.0.104)
  • Agent-scoped declarative hooks for custom agents (v1.0.97)
  • -disable-client-telemetry turns off client telemetry uploads; /share opens an action menu (v1.0.100)
