Copilot CLI v1.0.55-3: Hook Streaming & Plugin Management

TL;DR

  • Hook progress streaming now shows real-time status in the timeline
  • Remote sessions can be deleted directly from the picker; plugin precedence reordered (project > plugin-dir > personal > custom)
  • Fixed clipboard paste on Wayland, diff view shortcuts, and settings migration for legacy keys

New

  • Hook progress streaming — Long-running hooks now display real-time status messages in the timeline instead of silent execution
  • pluginDirectories on session RPC — SDK clients can mount Open Plugins-format directories per session via session.create and session.resume
  • Delete remote sessions from picker — Remove remote sessions directly without leaving the session selection UI

Improved

  • owner/repo#ref syntax for marketplace plugins — Cleaner syntax when adding plugins from the marketplace
  • Plugin precedence reordered — --plugin-dir skills now take priority over personal-home (~/.copilot, ~/.agents) skills. Full order: project > plugin-dir > personal > custom
  • Feedback dialog and /skills help — Updated to use Copilot-consistent log paths and terminology
  • tmux 3.6b progress integration — Progress indicators now work natively with tmux pane progress state
  • Reasoning token count in session summary — All users now see token counts for reasoning in session summaries
  • Remote session policy messaging — Helpful message when remote controlled sessions are disabled by organization policy

Fixed

  • Schedule manager hint bar text no longer wraps over dialog borders
  • copilot update and copilot version now authenticate release API requests to avoid rate limits in shared-NAT environments
  • Diff view keyboard shortcut hints display correctly when toggling between unstaged and branch diff modes
  • Clipboard paste now works on Wayland compositors without wlr-data-control support (GNOME/Mutter)
  • Interactive shell tool preserves parent terminal color settings for full-color diff tools and programs
  • Canvas tools with optional object input schemas open without validation errors
  • Extension subprocesses no longer fail with "Invalid command format" when forked from older CLI versions
  • Settings migration preserves user data when legacy snake_case keys exist from older versions
