GitHub Copilot adds desktop computer use for GUI workflows on macOS and Windows

What changed
GitHub released computer use in public preview on October 1 for Copilot CLI and the Copilot desktop app on macOS and Windows. Copilot can inspect accessible or visual app context, click controls, type, scroll and drag through GUI workflows that lack an API, CLI or MCP integration. GitHub says the user must approve app control, and organization policies can disable the feature.
