Copilot CLI v1.0.13-2: Faster Startup & Auth Fixes
Copilot CLI v1.0.13-2 brings faster startup through parallel operations, fixes Entra ID auth loops, and squashes keystroke, clipboard, and config path bugs.
TL;DR
- CLI startup now runs terminal detection, auth, and git ops in parallel — measurably faster
- Entra ID auth no longer spams consent screens on every login
- Fixed keystroke drops, clipboard corruption, and config-dir path fallback bugs
Improved
- Parallel startup operations — terminal detection, auth, and git operations now run concurrently instead of sequentially, cutting CLI startup time
Fixed
- MCP server Entra ID consent loop — Microsoft Entra ID authentication no longer triggers the consent screen on every login
- Search timeout responsiveness — grep and glob search results now return promptly when a timeout is reached instead of hanging
- Keystroke loss in dialogs — keystrokes are no longer dropped when typing quickly in elicitation dialogs
- Windows clipboard corruption — native Windows clipboard copy no longer includes a stray U+FEFF character at the start of pasted text
- Config directory path fallback — fixed --config-dir being ignored when resuming a session, which was silently falling back to ~/.copilot
Update with: npm install -g @github/copilot-cli@latest
