GitHub’s October 28 Universe release roundup includes image generation and editing directly inside Copilot. This is distinct from model routing: it brings visual asset iteration closer to the repository, where screenshots, UI specifications and code can be reviewed together.

For HomeControl or a new app prototype, the useful experiment is deliberately small. Ask Copilot to produce one temporary card illustration or interface placeholder, inspect the resulting asset, then check whether it can be regenerated, versioned and exported without breaking the build. Keep generated artwork separate from licensed logos and user photographs.

The official changelog is the place to check supported clients, availability and usage limits. Avoid assuming that a feature announced for the Copilot app automatically exists in Cursor or every VS Code account.
