npm @github/copilot 1.0.110-0

3 hours ago

Added

  • Experimental: answer git, ssh, and sudo password prompts from agent commands in a masked dialog (enable with /experimental on)

Improved

  • Selecting an unavailable account in /user switch shows recovery guidance and a retry action
  • Click anywhere in expanded reasoning to collapse it without scrolling back to the header
  • Offer a session AI-credit limit top-up at 90% usage, before the agent loses access to tools

Fixed

  • Show failed and cancelled compaction outcomes in the timeline, and explain memory-pressure compactions with restart and resume guidance.
  • /diff on a feature branch now lists committed files whose names have accented or other non-ASCII characters, a double quote, a backslash or a tab, instead of leaving them out of the file list.
  • copilot help network now quotes the certificate error Copilot reports for an untrusted proxy CA on Linux ("certificate verify failed", "unable to get local issuer certificate"), not a message it no longer produces
  • copilot help permissions no longer gives shell(gh pr create) as a rule example, which never matches; it now uses shell(gh pr) and explains that only the first subcommand is part of a command's name.
  • /mcp reload no longer says the servers were restarted when the MCP configuration could not be loaded
  • MCP tool results that also carry a top-level key such as skills, skill, tools or messages now reach the model instead of failing the tool call
  • /every and /after keep the line breaks and indentation of a multi-line prompt when a natural-language time is parsed from it, instead of merging lines and collapsing repeated spaces.
  • "Thought for" durations update when each reasoning part ends and no longer include time spent streaming the answer
  • Show forked sessions by name in the exit summary so their resume commands are easier to identify
  • /share file and /share html reject directory paths instead of creating hidden or misplaced export files
  • Allow copilot config to read and update settings.json files containing only comments
  • Shortened paths preserve folder names containing backslashes on Linux and macOS
  • copilot -p honors trusted repositories' includeCoAuthoredBy setting for commit trailers
  • Startup auto-install now waits for managed settings before reporting missing plugin marketplaces
  • Interactive prompts appear correctly after extensions switch a session out of autopilot.
  • /move preserves edits to files marked assume-unchanged and reports submodule changes left in the original working tree
  • Changing a setting in /statusline preserves other footer settings updated by another session while the picker is open
  • Avoid unnecessary path access prompts for in-repository reads after shell commands that change directories
  • Keep permanently approved URLs approved after /new or /clear without restarting the CLI
  • JSON prompt mode emits a final result record when authentication fails or the prompt is blank
  • Reject prompt options combined with subcommands instead of silently dropping the prompt and running the subcommand
  • Pressing Enter after completing an empty directory path runs /add-dir or /cd reliably on Windows
  • Use the exact directory name typed in /cd, /cwd, and /add-dir instead of a similarly named sibling directory
  • Show control characters visibly in folder trust dialogs so folder names display without hidden formatting or extra lines
  • Show when files or directories are too large to read or list instead of reporting misleading counts in collapsed tool results
  • Warn when repository settings override a saved default model for new sessions, naming the model and settings file that still apply
  • Treat empty or fully commented repository settings files as empty settings without startup warnings or parsing errors
  • Keep the command description and exit status visible in collapsed failed shell rows with multi-line output
  • Show pasted terminal text plainly in Ctrl+R search and session confirmations so escape sequences cannot recolor or hide text
  • Sandbox settings show their effective defaults and toggle default-on options off on the first press
  • Show settings-file errors without duplicate, misleading policy-update warnings when settings.json is invalid
  • Hook changes saved from /settings apply to the next prompt without restarting the CLI
  • IDE auto-connect follows your current folder after /cd, keeping editor selections and diffs in the correct IDE
  • Expanded Shell output preserves text before and after diffs and shows file names for diff-only output
  • Keep copilot lsp list output free of warnings when plugin language servers load successfully
  • Deleting the active voice model now shows that voice mode is off and how to choose another model.
  • Show the output size instead of an incorrect match count when search results are too large to list
  • MCP server and skill enable/disable commands correctly report success for names supplied through --additional-mcp-config or --plugin-dir
  • Keep dialog borders and padding aligned when a line ends with an invisible zero-width character
  • List items in plan and task summaries stay on one line when they contain literal asterisks or sentences ending in numbers
  • Show the enabled state enforced by your organization's managed settings for built-in plugins in copilot plugin list and --json output
  • Apply changes to Disable bypass permissions mode in /settings immediately, without restarting the CLI
  • /cd, /cwd, and /add-dir select the exact directory name you type when siblings differ only by case or accents
  • Hide custom agents with built-in names from /subagents so their controls cannot change built-in agent settings
  • Preserve first-line indentation in shell command output so expanded Shell rows correctly show spacing-sensitive results such as git status --short
  • Shell commands terminated by a signal report the correct exit status, such as 137 for SIGKILL or 139 for a segmentation fault
  • Show a confirmation when a model switch queued while the agent is working takes effect
  • Show the output size instead of an incorrect line count in Shell summaries when command output is too large to display
  • Footer context usage shows the same pre-request percentage as /context.
  • Plan quota and Copilot usage stay visible in the status line, /usage and the exit summary while a GitHub-hosted model is selected, even when providers.json configures a custom provider; they are hidden only while a model from that provider is selected
  • Prompt history is no longer hidden, and then erased by the next prompt, when the file that stores session mentions for past prompts is damaged or was written by a newer version
  • The ctrl+y footer hint no longer misses a plan written right after the session starts, and it keeps updating when the plan file cannot be watched
  • Hook events and other JSON settings can be saved from their editor in /settings; unset hook events now open as an empty list
  • Resuming a session by name with --resume no longer sends the session name in telemetry; only a session ID is reported
  • Exiting no longer writes dozens of errors to the process log about cleaning up a session that has already shut down
  • /sandbox no longer replaces your saved sandbox settings with defaults when settings.json has an invalid value; it shows the load error instead, and a sandbox path saved from a permission prompt is refused rather than overwriting the sandbox block
  • A prompt submitted while Compact and switch is compacting shows as queued again, instead of disappearing until the compaction finishes
  • Disabling an MCP server updates its token count in /mcp without waiting for another model response
  • On Linux, language servers that watch files are no longer told that files still on disk were deleted after two files or directories are swapped through a temporary name
  • copilot -p in a trusted folder no longer sometimes runs without the repository's hooks when plugins finish loading at the same time
  • copilot mcp remove and /mcp remove now delete an mcp-config.json entry that is skipped as invalid instead of reporting that the server was not found
  • Resuming a session by ID or name with /resume now keeps the session you leave open in the background, so it still runs its sessionEnd hooks, records its shutdown and is listed when you exit
  • copilot -p and other CLI runs that exit within a minute now apply process-log retention, so old logs are removed after 7 days and beyond the newest 50 instead of piling up one per run
  • copilot plugin marketplace add ./name, ../name and ~/name now add the local marketplace directory instead of trying to clone a GitHub repository
  • A shell command killed because the sandbox settings changed while it ran is now reported as failed instead of as a successful command with no output
  • The warning for an unsupported --reasoning-effort value is no longer lost when the session's model changes while the CLI is starting
  • copilot help '' prints the general help and exits successfully, just like copilot help.
  • A /compact with nothing to compact no longer leaves a stale "Compacting conversation history..." row in the timeline
  • An mcp-config.json that cannot be read or is not a JSON object now fails with an error that names the file and the actual problem, and a syntax error in a file with comments or trailing commas points at the real mistake instead of the first comment or comma

Removed

  • Remove legacy remote steering; cloud sessions and remote connections now require an AHP environment
