What’s New in GitHub Copilot CLI 1.0.110 and 1.0.111: Masked Password Prompts and Regex in Enterprise Rules

Leave a comment

GitHub shipped Copilot CLI 1.0.110 and 1.0.111, and both have real notes. 1.0.110 is the one with the feature people will actually notice: an experimental, masked dialog for answering git, ssh and sudo password prompts that come from agent commands. You turn it on with /experimental.

1.0.111 adds regular-expression support to enterprise-managed Shell, Bash and PowerShell permission rules, plus a --host-allow-session-creation flag so remote clients can create sessions on a CLI host for one launch without changing saved settings. The rest of 1.0.111 is a useful pile of polish: /usage percentages stay current, MCP OAuth reconnects are less noisy, markdown tables and status lines render more cleanly, /rewind and /session cleanup behave better around files and background sessions, and a few commands got clearer errors.

Review before you install: read the release notes yourself, back up your config, and try new versions somewhere you can afford to break first.

My take

A masked password prompt is the kind of thing you want if an agent is going to touch git or ssh at all, and I’m glad it’s still behind an experimental flag. Regex in enterprise permission rules is powerful, which also means a typo can open or close the wrong door. If you manage those rules, test them somewhere safe before you roll them out.

God Bless, and Happy hacking!
