Summary
CLI version check on 2026-06-12 found 8 tools with newer stable releases than the versions pinned in pkg/constants/version_constants.go. This supersedes #38298 (the 2026-06-10 check, expiring today): it carries the newest releases plus four deltas not covered there — GitHub MCP v1.3.0 (released 2026-06-11), Copilot SDK 1.0.1, Pi 0.79.1, and additional Claude patches up to 2.1.175.

Impact Assessment
All changes are Low risk: additive features or internal/protocol-level changes. gh-aw invokes Codex/Claude/Copilot/Pi via CLI and uses GitHub MCP read-only, so new MCP write tools and CLI-internal API changes do not affect it. No security advisories identified.
GitHub MCP Server — v1.1.2 → v1.3.0 (new since #38298)
v1.3.0 (2026-06-11) — highlights: get_commits added to pull_request_read, get_file_blame (insiders), rate-limit errors surfaced to agents.
Features
v1.3.0 fixes & v1.2.0 (from #38298)
v1.3.0 fixes
v1.2.0 (2026-06-08, carried from #38298)
Full changelog: https://github.com/github/github-mcp-server/releases/tag/v1.3.0 · github/github-mcp-server@v1.1.2...v1.3.0
Used read-only in gh-aw; new write/insiders tools are not enabled. Bump is safe.
Pi — 0.75.4 → 0.79.1 (never documented in #38298)
Timeline: 0.76.0 (2026-05-27), 0.77.0 (2026-05-28), 0.78.0 (2026-05-29), 0.78.1 (2026-06-04), 0.79.0 (2026-06-08), 0.79.1 (2026-06-09).
Features (from v0.79.x release notes)
- Claude Fable 5 support on Anthropic & Amazon Bedrock providers (adaptive thinking,
xhigh effort)
- Prompt templates accept default positional args, e.g.
${1:-7}
- New
defaultProjectTrust option (ask / always / never) + ctx.isProjectTrusted() for extensions
- Extension autocomplete trigger characters (e.g.
#, $); areExperimentalFeaturesEnabled guard
Selected fixes
- Bedrock ARN region resolution prefers ARN-embedded region over
AWS_REGION
- z.ai / Moonshot Kimi thinking-off sends
thinking: { type: "disabled" }
- Azure OpenAI Responses disable server-side response storage
- Corrected context-window /
maxTokens metadata for GPT-5 models
/reload applies updated steeringMode / followUpMode to current session
- IME cursor positioning, CJK wrapping, prompt-history navigation fixes

const DefaultClaudeCodeVersion Version = "2.1.175" // was 2.1.168
const DefaultCopilotVersion Version = "1.0.61" // was 1.0.60
const DefaultCopilotSDKVersion Version = "1.0.1" // was 1.0.0
const DefaultCodexVersion Version = "0.139.0" // was 0.137.0

// Optional, separate review (not in standard tracked set):
// const DefaultMCPSDKVersion Version = "1.29.0" // was 1.24.0
Then run make recompile to regenerate *.lock.yml and verify with git status. Do not commit *.lock.yml or pkg/workflow/js/*.js — they are regenerated artifacts.
Recommendations
Priority Low. GitHub MCP v1.3.0 and Pi 0.79.x carry the most net-new functionality this cycle. After bumping, run make recompile and a per-engine smoke test; for Copilot, re-confirm MCP loading + /models on PAT. The MCP SDK 1.24.0→1.29.0 jump is larger and should be reviewed separately before bumping.
