Added
- Added a Files tab to the right panel so you can browse and open files without switching away from the diff or terminal.
- Added a low disk space warning in the sidebar that shows a breakdown of Copilot session storage and a direct way to manage sessions when your disk is running low.
- Opening a workspace in VS Code or VS Code Insiders now also focuses the matching Copilot CLI chat session, not just the folder.

Changed
- Improved screen reader support in the sessions sidebar, and added an "Interaction hints" preference under Accessibility settings to control whether keyboard shortcut hints are announced.
- Pull request file changes now load incrementally, so file metadata and the sidebar appear sooner while the rest of the diff continues loading on large pull requests.
- Pull request pages now show the title, description, and key details first, then load comments and activity in the background.

Fixed
- Copy buttons now consistently announce "Copied to clipboard" for screen reader users and show a visible confirmation, with clearer accessible names.
- Fixed a crash in the formatting toolbar that could occur when text selection changed outside the message composer.
- Fixed a crash on the My Work tab when previously saved section view configuration contained malformed data.
- Fixed a crash that could occur when running a slash command or terminal command with malformed or unexpected data.
- Fixed an issue where a pull request review thread resolved outside the app could keep showing as unresolved in the conversation view.
- Fixed an issue where a pull request's conversation could appear stuck loading additional timeline events indefinitely.
- Fixed crashes that could occur when typing to focus the message box, using the voice mode keyboard shortcut, or selecting text to reveal the markdown formatting toolbar.
- Fixed duplicate slash command entries occasionally showing up in the composer's command menu.
- Fixed inconsistent capitalization of the "Go to repository" group heading in the command palette
- Fixed pasting a GitHub pull request or issue URL with extra suffixes (like /changes or a #discussion anchor) not matching the correct item when creating a session
- Fixed pull request review comment threads sometimes showing stale resolved/unresolved status in the conversation, files, and merge blocker views after resolving or unresolving a thread.
- Fixed the Agent Merge options popover sometimes appearing behind an open canvas instead of on top of it.
- Fixed the Extensions view's MCP tab sometimes spinning forever when the server list failed to load, and added a retry button if loading takes too long.
- Fixed the formatting toolbar in the Plan tab being clipped or hidden behind the tasks rail when selecting text.
- Fixed the response toolbar (copy / bookmark / fork) appearing repeatedly during multi-session coordination turns instead of only on the final response.
- Improved screen reader support for icons in the workspace popover, including token usage indicators and the QR code link.
- Pasting a GitHub branch URL into the command palette now starts a session on that branch instead of just adding the repository.
- Pressing Shift+Enter in the composer now inserts a line break instead of starting a new paragraph.
- Switching from Overview to Changes and back on a pull request no longer resets your scroll position on the Overview tab.
- The Background agents pill now only shows agents that are still running, removing finished ones instead of leaving stale entries behind.
- The QR code panel can now be opened with a click and operated via keyboard and screen readers, instead of requiring mouse hover.

Removed
- Removed the find-in-page (Cmd+F) shortcut from the Home view; it remains available on other views.
