Overview
- Mission Control gives Copilot subscribers a dashboard to run, compare, steer and monitor multiple coding agents in parallel across the web, VS Code, mobile and the CLI.
- Third‑party agents from partners including OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, xAI and Cognition will roll out to Copilot users in the coming months, with OpenAI Codex available now to Copilot Pro+ users in VS Code Insiders.
- An agent control plane adds enterprise controls such as identity and access management, policy enforcement and audit logging to manage how agents operate on code and repos.
- VS Code gains AGENTS.md for agent guardrails, a Plan Mode that generates step‑by‑step execution plans and access to GitHub’s Model Context Protocol registry.
- GitHub Code Quality enters public preview with a pre‑review step for Copilot and org‑level dashboards, and new Slack and Linear integrations let teams trigger and track agent work from their collaboration tools.
