What's New in Copilot CLI (v1.0.37 - v1.0.40)

This PR updates the course content to reflect recent Copilot CLI releases from the past 7 days (April 27 - May 4, 2026). Only beginner-friendly, stable content is included.


Sections Updated

Chapter 00 - Quick Start (00-quick-start/README.md)

  1. Optional shell tab completion: Added an expandable optional section after installation. It links the beginner-friendly explanation to the officially documented copilot completion support for Bash, Zsh, and Fish, and notes that PowerShell is not currently supported by copilot completion.

  2. Permission wording: Kept the trust-folder wording aligned with the course flow and avoided over-specifying behavior that may vary by CLI version or trust choice.

Chapter 01 - First Steps (01-setup-and-first-steps/README.md)

No command table changes are included. /chronicle was intentionally omitted because the command reference still marks it as experimental.


Source Announcements

- Add shell tab completion tip (copilot completion bash|zsh|fish) to Ch00
- Update Ch00 trust/permission wording: approvals now persist automatically by default
- Add /chronicle command to Ch01 Session commands reference table
