+**include-custom-instructions** *(Copilot CLI v1.0.86+)*: By default, a custom agent's own frontmatter and instructions body fully define its behavior, without automatically pulling in repository-wide instruction files. Set `include-custom-instructions: true` to have the agent also load your repository's instruction files — `AGENTS.md`, `copilot-instructions.md`, and `CLAUDE.md` — layering the agent's specialized persona on top of your team's general coding standards:

+description: 'Expert security auditor that reviews code for OWASP vulnerabilities'
+model: Claude Sonnet 4
+include-custom-instructions: true
+tools: ['codebase', 'terminal', 'github']
+---
+```
+
 ### Agent Instructions
 
 After the frontmatter, write Markdown instructions that define the agent's behavior. Structure these clearly:

 *(v1.0.84+)* Command-line parsing moved from Commander to a Rust-based grammar that mirrors what the CLI actually parses, which also generates shell completions directly from that grammar — so `copilot <TAB>` now offers root flags alongside subcommands, and each subcommand only shows its own options. As a result of this change, some error and help wording changed, `copilot login --host` now works correctly, and `--max-autopilot-continues` no longer accepts scientific notation as a value.
 
+### Context Management Tools for Agents and Subagents
+
+*(v1.0.85+)* Opt in to context management tools for agents and subagents from `/settings`, giving agents more direct control over how their context window is curated during long-running sessions.
+
+### Concise Transcript View
+
+*(v1.0.85+)* Set `transcriptView` to `"concise"` to group tool activity into expandable work summaries instead of a flat scrolling log — useful for keeping long sessions readable while still letting you drill into the details of any step.
+
+### Repository Instructions in Custom Agents
+
+*(Copilot CLI v1.0.86+)* Custom agents can opt into repository instruction files by setting `include-custom-instructions: true` in their frontmatter, layering `AGENTS.md`, `copilot-instructions.md`, and `CLAUDE.md` on top of the agent's own persona and instructions. See [Building Custom Agents](../building-custom-agents/) for the frontmatter syntax.
