# GitHub Copilot CLI Gets Tabs and No-Config-File Tool Setup in Redesigned Terminal UI

**[InfoQ](https://daily.dev/sources/infoq)** · 3 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

GitHub has made the redesigned terminal interface for GitHub Copilot CLI generally available. Key additions include a tabbed layout (Session, Gists, Issues, Pull Requests) for navigating GitHub content without leaving the terminal, and a guided in-session tool configuration experience that eliminates manual config file editing. Developers can add MCP servers via `/mcp add` or browse the GitHub MCP Registry with `/mcp search`, toggle skills, install plugins, and adjust settings inline. The UI also gains theme-aware colors, responsive layout for narrow terminals, and automatic screen reader support. Users can update via `copilot update`.
