Azure MCP Server 3.0.0 shipped on October 12, 2026. Tool calls with unknown parameters now fail, options like subscription and tenant were removed from many tools, new Storage accounts disable Shared Key auth, and the server speaks the stateless MCP 2026-07-28 protocol.

Send GitHub Copilot app agent traces, token metrics and events to your own OTLP collector with the telemetry block in enterprise managed settings. Covers every telemetry key, the six content-capture classes, delivery via .github-private, MDM or a root-owned file, channel precedence, a collector config with bearer auth, and the gotchas that make exports silently go nowhere.

Enable GitHub Copilot local sandboxing in Copilot CLI 1.0.95 and the Copilot app, then lock down filesystem paths, outbound hosts, git/gh tokens and masked environment variables. Covers the settings.json keys, /sandbox policy, the bypass escape hatch, enterprise enforcement, and the gotchas on macOS, Linux and Windows.

Write a Copilot dynamic workflow with defineWorkflow in .github/extensions/<name>/extension.mjs, then run it headless with copilot workflow run in GitHub Actions. Verified on Copilot CLI 1.0.95 and @github/copilot-sdk 1.0.19: the --experimental flag, project-extension trust, flag order, exit codes, result files and permissions.

Genkit Dart 1.0.0 freezes the API, moves HTTP serving into core with GenkitRouter, and changes the streamed error frame. Shipped Flutter apps on a 0.17 client need sendLegacyErrorFrame.

Magentic orchestration is Agent Framework's port of AutoGen's Magentic-One: an LLM manager writes a fact sheet and plan (the task ledger), then grades every round with a JSON progress ledger to pick the next agent, detect stalls and replan. Here is how the loop works on Microsoft.Agents.AI.Workflows 1.24.0 and agent-framework-orchestrations 1.3.1, what it costs per round, and the limit defaults that let it run forever.

Semantic Kernel .NET 1.81.0 fixes a FileIOPlugin oracle: WriteAsync told the model a file outside AllowedFolders existed, was read-only, and where it lived. Measured before and after.

The GitHub Copilot SDK (1.0.18, October 8, 2026) is a thin client for the Copilot CLI runtime: your app speaks JSON-RPC to the same agent loop that powers Copilot CLI, with built-in file and shell tools, MCP, sub-agents, hooks, and BYOK. How it is wired, four things you can build with it, and the defaults that will bite you in production.

Microsoft.Agents.AI.Anthropic 1.24.0 drops the preview suffix and depends on Anthropic 12.53.0. Agents built from IAnthropicClient are now stable API, while the client.Beta extensions are marked experimental under MAAIANTHROPIC001, which extension-method calls do not trigger.

GitHub Agentic Workflows (gh-aw v0.91.5) compiles a Markdown file into a hardened GitHub Actions .lock.yml that runs Copilot, Claude Code, Codex, Gemini or Pi in a read-only, firewalled job and applies writes through safe-outputs. What it adds on top of Actions, the jobs it generates, and when a plain workflow with claude-code-action is still the better tool.
