Kingy AI Take

GitHub updated Copilot Chat to search and query past Copilot cloud agent sessions, per the June 10, 2026 changelog (github.blog). Developers and Engineering Teams running agent workflows lose less context between sessions. It is a narrow convenience update whose value depends on how reliably chat retrieves the right prior session, so validate retrieval quality on real projects before leaning on it.
