A GitHub Community roundup outlines 50+ November updates to Copilot: custom agents and plan mode in JetBrains/Eclipse/Xcode, agent-specific instructions and pause/resume in VS Code, Eclipse coding agent GA, inline doc comment generation, and workspace-level overrides. Copilot CLI reportedly adds more model choices for terminal workflows; confirm specific model availability and GA status via official release notes.
Cross-IDE feature parity reduces friction for mixed-tool teams and lets you standardize agent workflows.
Workspace overrides and model selection enable project-level governance and performance/cost tuning.
