State of The Shell

" summary

Telemetry shows over two billion sessions per month and the team narrows collection to focus growth signals. PowerShell 7 is pushed toward trivial install paths (winget, terminal integration) rather than forced inboxing. Package work puts PSResourceGet + ACR as a private-gallery option. Windows Server 2025 ships SSH in Windows Server 2025 with one‑click enablement. CLI safety adds secret‑exposure warnings in Azure PowerShell. Tooling updates include a cloud shell container and Crescendo argument transformations for wrapping native commands.
