GitHub Copilot CLI v1.0.111 Release Notes

2026-11-13

Add regular expression support to enterprise-managed Shell, Bash, and PowerShell permission rules
Add --host-allow-session-creation to let remote clients create sessions on CLI hosts for one launch without changing saved settings
Refresh /usage premium request usage so percentages stay current.
Prevent duplicate MCP OAuth reconnects and keep servers in needs-auth after canceled authorization
Markdown tables containing a wide symbol followed by the text variation selector, such as ⌛︎, render with correctly aligned rows
The footer.showCodeChanges setting description now says it shows the lines added and removed by Copilot's file edits in this session, not pending changes
The /usage activity graph now fits narrow terminals by showing fewer weeks, instead of wrapping every day row in two
Shell output and custom status lines display correctly when terminal control sequences appear, without applying unintended text styles
/rewind with Conversation + files no longer counts, lists or reports as restored a file that later turns had already put back or deleted again
Interactive /plugin marketplace commands find repository-local marketplaces when the CLI starts in a subdirectory
Keep selection labels readable and rows aligned in /environments when using --screen-reader
/skills get without a skill name and the /mcp usage text name the get and remove verbs instead of the retired info and delete
/diff shows a clear notice for binary files instead of garbled text or an empty pane
The /usage activity graph hides its legend in narrow panes to prevent it from wrapping onto extra lines
The $ shell shortcut reports launch failures once with a clear reason, including when Ctrl+G opens the editor at the same time.
/mcp search installs registry servers with URL variables using the values you enter
Custom status lines render terminal colors and formatting correctly, without stray characters after color resets.
Hook approval dialogs show control characters in tool names and arguments as visible text instead of hiding or restyling them
/session delete-all, /session prune, and /session delete preserve sessions running in the background in the same window
Text that fits on one row stays on one row after resizing the terminal
In /workflows, a run's Agents list no longer runs off the bottom of a short terminal: the selected agent stays on screen, and a long phase title stays on one row
copilot plugin enable, disable, update and uninstall now fail and name config.json when it cannot be parsed, instead of reporting success without a change or that the plugin is not installed
--no-color preserves text styling while disabling colors, even when FORCE_COLOR is set
Pasted image paths attach correctly when you press Enter immediately after pasting in terminals that mark pasted input
Keep the selected /share action visible when navigation keys cannot move the selection in short terminals
MCP forms show validation errors immediately for answers edited in an external editor with Ctrl+G
Running copilot --continue with no previous session shows the welcome header and Getting started box.
Keep the Sessions tab responsive when dialogs open during navigation, and show pending dialogs where they can be answered
Keep the highlighted confirmation option visible in the Sessions tab and /environments on short terminals
Keep the /theme picker's title and border on screen in narrow terminals and beside the docked Sessions sidebar, dropping the preview instead
The /share screen keeps the selected action visible in narrow terminals
/ask and /btw show answers correctly beside the Sessions sidebar in narrow terminals
Keep the /tasks title and borders visible when the task list is longer than the terminal can display
copilot -p "/compact" --silent no longer prints the compaction result line to stdout, so --silent output stays limited to the agent's response
Keep the prompt, tab bar, and status line visible when typing a multi-line draft during the startup animation on short terminals
/diff shows staged renames under their new names, including edits made while renaming
With experimental dynamic workflows, a workflow's own agent can no longer start or resume workflow runs, so a workflow can no longer start copies of itself without limit when all tools are allowed.
With the high-contrast theme on a 16 or 256-colour terminal, the Sessions tab shows the status icon of the selected row instead of drawing it blue on blue
Follow-ups typed while the agent is working now run in the order they were typed; one that reached the session between two turns is no longer overtaken by follow-ups typed after it.
The /usage activity graph counts only the prompts you typed, not sub-agent or autopilot prompts, and its message total matches the days the graph draws
Pasted escape sequences no longer change text colours or hide text in search fields
copilot -p with --trust-folder, run from a subdirectory of a repository, now warns that the hooks at the repository root were not loaded and says how to load them
Custom status lines display non-ASCII characters correctly even when commands write them in pieces
Copying inline code from wrapped rows after resizing the terminal no longer includes extra non-breaking spaces.
Queued slash commands now show an error when they fail instead of disappearing silently
Prompts sent as a turn finishes now run without waiting for background agents to complete
Dragging the sessions divider or scrollbar now ends cleanly when the left mouse button is no longer held.
Allow your own scratch files under /tmp on macOS without path permission prompts unless --disallow-temp-dir is set
Re-attaching an image or document after switching models or compacting a session sends its content to the model
Show an error when /update cannot download a release instead of leaving the download progress message indefinitely
Sessions started with /new or from the Sessions tab can be controlled from GitHub when remote sessions are enabled
Expand ${COPILOT_PLUGIN_ROOT} in plugin hook working directories and environment values
Push-to-talk preserves dictated text when held Space key repeats pause and resume
OAuth sign-in for remote MCP servers works through proxies that require Kerberos (Negotiate) authentication
Show permission prompts, questions, and confirmations directly in the sub-agent view so you can respond without leaving it
Keep text after terminal control sequences visible in labels and output, and hide embedded image data
Search in /skills, /mcp, and /plugin matches visible text instead of words hidden inside terminal escape sequences
Clear the previous profile's routed model from the footer and custom status line when switching Copilot Fusion profiles
Prevent @ file mentions and /sandbox path completion from selecting outdated suggestions when typing quickly
The /sandbox Credentials tab counts masked environment variables separately from unmasked suggestions
/resume keeps session rows aligned and columns visible with --screen-reader, and announces unread status once
Show all rows of wrapped Japanese, Chinese, and Korean text without clipping the last row or leaving extra blank rows
Resizing the terminal during a text-selection drag preserves the clipboard instead of copying empty lines or unhighlighted text
Keep the @ file picker up to date when ignore files change above the working directory
Autopilot confirmation hides Assisted Permissions when disabled by administrator policy and explains why they are unavailable.
Keep /config view tabs and the selected view readable in screen-reader mode on narrow terminals
