Subject: [PATCH 05/33] Add PowerShell dependency to winget manifests

Modify the winget workflow to inject a PowerShell >= 7.0.0 dependency
into the installer manifest before submission. This ensures users have
PowerShell 7+ installed when installing via winget.

Subject: [PATCH 09/33] Add PowerShell dependency to winget manifests

Re-applies the change from PR #1497 which was reverted in PR #1548.

The original broke the workflow YAML because the PowerShell here-string
content and closing tag had zero indentation, which terminated the YAML
literal block scalar (run: |). Fixed by indenting the here-string body
to match the block indentation level; YAML strips the leading spaces,
leaving valid PowerShell with the closing tag at column 0.

For any servers they have added with an `env` section, they will need to go add a `$` to the start of the "value" pair of the key value pair of each entry in the env-block, so to have the values treated as references to environment variables.

Subject: [PATCH 12/33] Add PowerShell dependency to winget manifests

Re-applies the change from PR #1497 which was reverted in PR #1548.

The original broke the workflow YAML because the PowerShell here-string
content and closing tag had zero indentation, which terminated the YAML
literal block scalar (run: |). Fixed by indenting the here-string body
to match the block indentation level; YAML strips the leading spaces,
leaving valid PowerShell with the closing tag at column 0.

Subject: [PATCH 22/33] install: guide user to update PATH for current shell
 session

When copilot is not on PATH after install, the script now:
- Tells users to restart their shell or source their RC file after
  adding the PATH export
- Provides a copy-pasteable one-liner (export PATH + copilot help)
  that fixes PATH for the current session and runs the getting started
  command
- Only shows the simple 'copilot help' message when it will actually
  work

Subject: [PATCH 30/33] install: use GITHUB_TOKEN for authenticated GitHub
 requests
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

When the GITHUB_TOKEN environment variable is set, pass it as an
Authorization header on curl/wget downloads and embed it in the git
remote URL for ls-remote. This helps avoid rate limits and enables
installation from private repositories.

When GITHUB_TOKEN is unset, behavior is unchanged — the auth arrays
expand to nothing and the git remote URL stays unauthenticated.

+## 1.0.4 - 2026-03-11
+
+- Add `session.shell.exec` and `session.shell.kill` RPC methods for executing shell commands with streaming stdout/stderr output
+- Custom agents from --plugin-dir plugins now load correctly in ACP mode
+- Adaptive color engine with dynamic color modes and interactive theme picker. Gracefully degrades on limited-color terminals and Windows
+- MCP OAuth re-authentication works reliably when callback port changes or when using Microsoft Entra ID
+- Replace /pr open with /pr view [local|web] to view PR status locally or open in browser
+- Enables OpenTelemetry instrumentation for observability into agent sessions, LLM calls, and tool executions
+- Extensions can now be written as CommonJS modules (extension.cjs)
+- Show loaded extensions count in the Environment loaded startup message
+- Support disableAllHooks flag to disable all hooks from a configuration file
+- Support Azure DevOps repository identification in session logs
+- Session export header renders each field on its own line in shared gists
+- Auto-update now retries without authentication token on SAML enforcement errors
+- Autopilot mode stops continuing after API errors instead of looping indefinitely
+- Status line context window percentage no longer inflates across turns by using the last call's input and output tokens instead of cumulative totals
+- Kitty keyboard protocol is properly disabled on suspend when using alternate screen
+- Only show reasoning headers when it's the only reasoning text available.
+- Terminal properly resets when CLI crashes, preventing shell corruption
+- /update command automatically restarts to apply updates instead of requiring manual exit
+- OAuth authentication now handles Microsoft Entra ID and other OIDC servers reliably with proper resource indicators and refresh token support
+- Show individual instruction file names in /instructions picker with [external] labels for injected files
+- Path permission dialog offers a one-time approval option in addition to adding the path to the allowed list
+- Add --reasoning-effort CLI flag to set reasoning effort level
+- Hooks can now request user confirmation before tool execution with 'ask' permission decision
+- Add configure-copilot sub-agent for managing MCP servers, custom agents, and skills via the task tool
+- Interactive shell initialization no longer times out on slow machines
+- Faster shell commands on Windows by skipping PowerShell profile loading
+- Improve CLI help documentation to use standard --option=value format and comma-separated list syntax
+

Subject: [PATCH 32/33] Alter PATH for login shells, not interactive shells

The installer was adding PATH exports to .bashrc/.zshrc, which are
rc files for interactive shells.  PATH belongs in login-shell startup
files (~/.profile, ~/.bash_profile, ~/.zprofile) so it is set once
per session and inherited by all child processes.
