+### Azure Boards integration with GitHub Copilot (private preview)
+
+We’re excited to announce a new capability in our Azure Boards and GitHub integration: the ability to connect Azure Boards work items with the GitHub Copilot coding agent (private preview). This feature allows Azure DevOps customers to create a work item, provide instructions in the description, and send it directly to Copilot. The coding agent can then take on a variety of tasks such as fixing bugs, implementing incremental features, improving test coverage, updating documentation, or addressing technical debt.
+
+To use the feature, simply open a work item and select the option to “Create a pull request with GitHub Copilot.” Copilot receives the work item content, including large text fields and recent comments, then generates a branch and draft pull request linked back to the work item for full traceability. Once the work is complete, the pull request status is updated on the work item and a comment is added to notify you that it is ready for review.
+

+> ![Gif to demo full boards Copilot integration.](../../media/262-boards-01.gif "Gif to demo full boards Copilot integration.")
+
+This feature is currently available in **private preview**. Organizations can request access to participate, which helps us collect feedback and refine the experience before broader release. Details on how to sign up are available in [this blog post](https://devblogs.microsoft.com/devops/azure-boards-integration-with-github-copilot-private-preview/).
+
+### Deprecating clone work item
+
+Based on the overall low usage and the fact that Copy and Clone provide almost the same functionality, we have decided to remove the Clone Work Item feature from the product. You can continue using Copy Work Item, which also allows you to edit the work item before saving.

+### New state filter available for Coverage in security overview
+
+In addition to the search and project filters, we've also added a new State filter. This allows you to filter by specific enablement states per Advanced Security feature across your organization for increased granularity and improved status monitoring. All filtering changes are also available via API and reflected as URL parameters in your browser.

+
+### Enhanced filtering and search capabilities for Coverage
+
+Previously, the security overview Coverage page was a flat list of repositories which was hard to navigate or to find specific enablement statuses. We've added a search bar for keyword search and also a project slicer so you can now filter for enablement status across specific projects.

+
+### Granular enablement panels now available for project and organization-level enablement
+
+Previously, users did not have the ability to modify sub-features at the project or organization-level, such as push protection or dependency scanning auto-injection. These changes now bring the same granular controls you see at the repository level to the project and organization enablement experiences after you select `Enable all`.

+### AzureAppServiceManageV0 versioned extension support (public preview) 
+
+You can now specify App Service extensions as `name@version` (e.g., `[email protected]`). If a version is specified, that exact version will be installed. If you specify `latest` as the version, the latest available version will be installed (in case it already has the latest version, installation will be skipped). If no version is specified, the extension will only be installed if it is not already present.  
+Examples: `[email protected], OtherExtension@latest, LegacyExtension`.
