GPT-6.1 Sol from OpenAI is now available in GitHub Copilot and Microsoft Foundry.
In early testing, it completed tasks with fewer tokens and steps than earlier models in the GPT-6 and GPT-5.6 families, making it more affordable to build and run agents at scale.
When an agent’s guardrail says “deny,” the action needs to stop.
Agent Hooks gives builders a shared control contract and conformance tests to verify enforcement across frameworks. Explore the spec, five SDKs, and no-key demos. https://t.co/s2wT4QUMUP
Introducing run-assert-eval.
With a single prompt in @code, the skill identifies risks specific to your agent, measures how often they occur, generates runtime policy based on those findings, and reruns the same eval to see whether the policy worked.

Claude Opus 5.5, Anthropic’s newest Opus model, is now available in GitHub Copilot and Microsoft Foundry.
In early testing, Opus 5.5 resolved tasks comparably to Claude Opus 5 while using significantly fewer steps and tokens.
Build agentic apps with the GitHub Copilot SDK, without implementing the agent loop yourself.
Join this beginner-friendly livestream to learn how to use sessions, tools, MCP servers, streaming events, and more to embed Copilot’s agent runtime in your apps. Plus, check out specific sessions for .NET and Java development.

Portable Computer is now available on Windows PCs with @NVIDIA RTX GPUs.
Run the harness, agents, and models locally on your PC.
Work with local files and connected apps without sending tasks to the cloud. Use frontier cloud models when needed.
Clear your calendars tomorrow for four hours of GitHub Copilot.
We’ll get into agents, models, the CLI, VS Code, live demos, new stuff, and plenty of code along the way.
Tune in and hang out with us.

We built ThinkingBox to measure whether agents actually finish the job.
ThinkingBox runs agents in isolated, stateful tool environments, lets simulated users answer follow-up questions, and inspects the side effects left behind.
