What it does

GitHub Copilot's coding agent takes work assigned to it in GitHub, such as an issue, and works in a cloud environment to produce a pull request. It plans the task, explores the repository, makes the changes and hands the pull request to the team for review, and it can be reached from GitHub, VS Code, the GitHub CLI and GitHub Mobile. On the Pro+ and Max plans the same assignment flow can delegate tasks to third-party agents such as Claude and OpenAI Codex.
