What changed

Three Learning Hub pages updated based on GitHub Copilot CLI changelog entries for v1.0.71 (2026-07-16) and v1.0.72 (2026-07-20).


New features found

v1.0.72 — stop_hook_active flag for agentStop hooks

An agentStop hook that always blocks no longer loops indefinitely. The CLI now ends the turn after 8 consecutive blocks and passes a stop_hook_active flag so hooks can detect a forced continuation and self-limit. This is a meaningful behavioral change that affects anyone using blocking agentStop hooks.

v1.0.71 — Canvas support in the CLI

Canvas extensions are now available in the GitHub Copilot CLI (previously Copilot app only). The same /create-canvas skill and extension structure work across both surfaces.

v1.0.72 — Direct skill installation via CLI

Individual skills can now be installed without a full plugin using copilot plugins install --skill <file, URL, or directory>. Supports --scope project for repository-scoped installs.
