Copilot CLI v0.0.406-1: Plugin Skills & MCP Fixes
Copilot CLI 0.0.406-1 adds plugin-to-skills translation, MCP status visibility, and structured content support for richer VS Code integration.
TL;DR
- Plugins now translate to skills; MCP tools show enabled/disabled status
- Structured content support (images, resources) in MCP responses for richer VS Code UI
- Subscription warning added; experimental features flag now works correctly
New
- Subscription warning — alerts users without active Copilot subscription
- Plugin-to-skills translation — commands from plugins automatically convert to skills
- /changelog command — view release notes directly in CLI
- Plugin marketplace URL support — add sources via URLs instead of just local paths
Improved
- /mcp show — now displays enabled/disabled status for each MCP tool
- MCP structured content — responses include images and resources for richer UI rendering in VS Code
Fixed
- --no-experimental flag — correctly disables experimental features
- CLI rendering — removed extra blank lines in interface output
Update with: npm install -g @github/copilot-cli@0.0.406-1
