Copilot Studio just got a lot bigger. Here's what changed:
1️⃣ The GitHub Copilot harness is generally available in Copilot Studio (since August): agents that plan, use skills and run long processes.
2️⃣ Cowork builds apps. Ask in plain language and the app starts there.
3️⃣ The big one: Copilot Managed Runtime (preview). Microsoft hosts the apps Copilot builds as managed apps, inside your tenant. Build in Cowork, Code or Copilot Studio; they all land in one portal, and developers can pick up the same app in Claude Code or GitHub Copilot. Entra sign-in, 1,500+ connectors, DLP and connector policies from day one.
4️⃣ What I'm pondering: is this a new era of low code? How do we reuse our Power Platform skills? How do we move customers' apps and flows over?
