Backlog getting you down? Drowning in technical debt? Delegate issues to Copilot so you can focus on the creative, complex, and high-impact work that matters most. Copilot coding agent makes this possible.

Simply assign an issue (or multiple issues) to Copilot just as you would another developer. You can do this from github.com, GitHub Mobile, or the GitHub CLI. Copilot works in the background, using its own secure cloud-based development environment powered by GitHub Actions. Copilot explores the repository, makes changes, and even validates its work with your tests and linter before it pushes.

    Sure you keep living in your delusional world where using GitHub is dumb and AI isn’t useful.

      There’s nuance here. Issues with how copilot is trained and licensing. Problems with debugging the code and not having any human able to explain why anything is the way it is.

      You are right, it appears I have made a mistake. The error you mentioned would mean that indeed Github isn’t dumb and AI is indeed useful.
