GitHub has launched a public preview of the remote control feature for Copilot CLI, delivering real-world assets (RWA) news for developers. Users can now share a link or QR code to access and control active coding sessions from another device. All local actions are supported, including editing plans and switching modes. The feature is available on iOS and Android, with admin approval required for business and enterprise users. This update brings on-chain news relevance to collaborative workflows.

ME News report: On April 14 (UTC+8), according to 1M AI News monitoring, GitHub released a public preview of the Copilot CLI remote control feature on April 13. By launching with the copilot --remote parameter, the CLI generates a link and QR code, allowing users to remotely access the running session in real time via a browser on another device or the GitHub mobile app. Session state is synchronized in real time between the local CLI and the remote endpoint, and each remote session is visible only to the initiator. Remote endpoints support the same operations as the local CLI: appending directional instructions, continuing task execution after the agent’s current round, modifying the execution plan, switching between plan, interactive, and autonomous modes, approving or denying permission requests, and answering questions posed by the agent via the ask_user tool. The working directory must be a GitHub repository, and long-running tasks can be paired with /keep-alive to prevent device sleep. Beta versions are now available for both iOS and Android, accessible via TestFlight and Google Play Beta channels, respectively. Copilot Business and Copilot Enterprise users must have remote control policies enabled by their administrators. This feature truly solves the problem of having to stay by your computer after initiating a task. AI programming tasks often run for dozens of minutes; now users can lock their screens and leave, checking progress or sending follow-up commands from their phones at any time, without worrying about tasks stalling due to lack of oversight.
