Version 1.0.59

Jun 2, 2026
GitHub/GitHub Copilot CLICLIv1.0.59
  • Actionable error message shown when GitHub API rate limit is hit during copilot update
  • Add /rubber-duck command for adversarial feedback on code and designs
  • Plugin slash commands (/plugin install, uninstall, update, marketplace add/remove/browse) now show immediate feedback while the operation is in progress
  • Canceling a running shell command (Ctrl+C on a !command, or aborting an agent command — including in sandboxed and background-promoted shells) now terminates the whole process tree instead of leaving orphaned processes running
  • Canvas providers can return file:// URLs in open results for local file previews
  • Symlinked directories appear in /cwd completion suggestions
  • In Azure DevOps-only repositories, the built-in GitHub MCP server now exposes only the web_search tool instead of being fully disabled
  • Quota footer shows remaining requests as a rounded percentage
  • /lsp show, /lsp test, and /lsp reload correctly discover project LSP config when the CLI is launched from a subdirectory
  • MCP server timeout configuration is preserved after tools list changes
  • /skills add and /skills remove correctly handle paths wrapped in quotes (e.g., from Windows Explorer "Copy as path")
  • Running copilot with an unquoted multi-word prompt now shows a helpful "quote your prompt" hint instead of a raw commander error
  • Default networking transport is now HTTP/1.1, improving reliability on some network paths. Opt into HTTP/2 with COPILOT_ENABLE_HTTP2=1.
  • Plugins auto-installed from repository settings no longer leak into user global config
  • Grep tool correctly handles tsx and jsx as file type filters
  • Add the /voice command to dictate prompts using local speech-to-text models
  • COPILOT_HOME is honored for the server discovery registry directory
