GitHub is expanding Copilot beyond the IDE with a new desktop application and a new collaborative work surface called canvas as part of its broader efforts to pitch the AI-assisted coding tool as the control center for agent-native software development. The desktop application announced at Microsoft’s annual Build conference this week is designed to give developers a dedicated environment for working with AI agents throughout the software development lifecycle, rather than limiting those interactions to code-generation tasks inside an editor, the company wrote in a blog post. The application includes a collaborative workspace called canvas where developers can brainstorm ideas, refine requirements, generate plans, and iterate on projects alongside AI, it said. It also has new Agent Merge and code review features that enable developers to automate Copilot to combine tasks of different agents to complete a specific goal or conduct autonomous code reviews according to set standards, it sa

I got tired of copying files into an AI chat just to get feedback. So I built a pure Python MCP server that gives AI tools direct access to my local project—no frameworks, no dependencies. It runs over stdio for local use and switches to HTTP/SSE for concurrent clients with a single flag. The result: 5 clients, under 50ms, and a design that stays simple without sacrificing capability.
