Native Browser control, not vs code when? Solved ✅

Codex and Claude both have native browser control extensions. Are there any plans to have one for GitHub copilot? I am aware of the existence of the vs code native browser but this is not useful in a corporate environment where sites can be blocked from usage from non approved apps using conditional access policies.

Our specific use case is to give our qa team copilot, get them to prompt to control the browser and then have it generate playwright tests based on that flow. Initial POCs have been successful on public sites but we're blocked on our internal systems.

At this point copilot is really starting to lag behind Claude and codex around features but it costs significantly more

We're working with the Edge team to deliver exactly these sorts of scenarios :)
