GitHub’s Copilot changelog lists “Custom skills, agents, and MCP servers in usage metrics API” as an improvement. The entry appears under account management, Copilot and enterprise management tools.

The short listing does not explain which metrics are available, whether the change is already available to users, or which plans or API versions are affected.

## The facts

- The changelog names custom skills, agents and MCP servers.
- The entry is categorized under Copilot and enterprise management tools.

## Why it matters

For organizations that track Copilot use through the API, the listing suggests these features may be included in usage reporting, but GitHub’s entry does not confirm what data is exposed or who can access it.
