Last ned GitHub Copilot 1.0.3

What's new in v1.0.3

Highlights
- Fixed a critical bug where an in-app update could silently wipe all workspaces and session history — the app now automatically recovers from a backup if the database is found empty or corrupt at startup.
- Daily scheduled workflows now support selecting multiple hours, so the same automation can run at several times per day without writing a custom cron expression.
- Settings now has a dedicated Sessions tab grouping session-related options — default model, custom instructions, auto-approve, agent merge attribution, remote access, and session lifecycle.
- The session info popover now shows a complete context window breakdown — system prompt, tools, MCP tools, messages, free space, and buffer — at any time, not just during an active turn.
- Fixed a progressive slowdown when opening the right-click context menu, command palette, and merge drawer after extended use — open times now stay consistently fast.

Added
- Daily scheduled workflows now support selecting multiple hours, so the same automation can run at several times per day without writing a custom cron expression.
- Deep links now support opening a specific cloud automation or cloud automation run directly in the app (e.g. from a notification or the GitHub automations page).
- You can now customize project groups in the sidebar with a display name and color — right-click a project group and choose Customize to personalize it.

Changed
- Bash command rows now show a live elapsed timer while a command is running, making it easy to tell how long a command has been going.
- Failed workflow run errors now show an inline copy button on hover, making it easy to copy exact error text without interfering with clicking the row.
- Merged pull requests now display the same pull request icon as open pull requests, distinguished by color, for a more consistent appearance everywhere they're shown.
- Pull request descriptions that fail to load now show a clear error with a Try again button instead of an empty description.
- Settings now has a dedicated "Sessions" tab grouping session-related options (default model, custom instructions, auto-approve, agent merge attribution, remote access, and session lifecycle) separately from general app settings.
- The send button in the prompt composer now changes color to match the active session mode — blue for Plan mode and green for Autopilot mode.
- The session info popover now shows a complete context window breakdown — system prompt, tools, MCP tools, messages, free space, and buffer — at any time, not just during an active turn.
- The Submit review and Cancel buttons in the PR review panel are now right-aligned, with Cancel to the left of Submit review, matching standard dialog conventions.

Fixed
- Agent autocomplete now reflects newly installed or removed plugin-provided agents without requiring a restart.
- Changing reasoning effort without switching models now shows the correct notice (e.g. "Reasoning effort changed from Medium to High.") instead of incorrectly saying the model changed.
- Fixed a bug where an in-app update could silently wipe all workspaces and session history on the next launch. The app now automatically recovers from a backup if the database is found empty or corrupt at startup.
- Fixed an issue where the PR button always used "main" as the target branch even when a different base branch was selected, especially when clicking the button quickly before changes had loaded.
- Fixed conversation messages overlapping a long first prompt when scrolling through the chat history.
- Fixed file drag-and-drop missing the drop target on high-DPI displays.
- Fixed near-black hue colors in the Monochrome theme in light mode — colored elements now render as distinct, visible hues instead of collapsing to near-black.
- Fixed progressive slowdown when opening the right-click context menu, command palette, and merge drawer after extended app use — open times could grow from milliseconds to several seconds and now stay consistently fast.
- Fixed the breadcrumb in the pull request detail view being hidden behind macOS window controls when the sidebar is collapsed.
- In the sidebar's group-by-status view, a session tree now surfaces in its most urgent group, so a ready-to-merge or needs-input child session bubbles the whole tree up instead of being hidden under the root session's group.
- Issues that were transferred between repositories no longer get stuck on "Loading..." when opened, whether from the inbox or inside a session.
- Pull requests that have automatic merge enabled but with the 'Merge pull request' action turned off now correctly appear as ready to merge in the sidebar.
- The auto-merge button in the pull request merge drawer no longer flashes back to its previous state while the request is in flight — enabling or disabling auto-merge now immediately reflects the new state.
- Voice dictation no longer prevents the Linux app from launching on PipeWire or bare ALSA systems without PulseAudio client libraries installed.
