GitHub Copilot weekly releases — September 7

GitHub shipped its September 7 Copilot weekly release, adding Jira integration to the Copilot app, adaptive model orchestration via Project HydraFusion in Copilot CLI, agent automation in VS Code 1.137, and enterprise-managed sandbox controls for Copilot in JetBrains. Project HydraFusion, now in `/experimental`, performs automated semantic routing between local, cloud, and compound models, selecting a workflow that balances performance, cost, and latency per task. VS Code 1.137 adds scheduled recurring agent tasks (hourly, daily, or weekly) and voice mode in public preview and experimental stages, while JetBrains enterprise admins gain public-preview policies over sandbox enablement, filesystem and network access, proxy settings, and developer-tool access.
