GITHUB COPILOT CODING AGENT IN PUBLIC PREVIEW

Summary from the TLDR newsletter

Copilot coding agent lets developers delegate issues so they can focus on the creative, complex, and high-impact work that matters most. Developers simply assign issues to Copilot as they would another developer, and Copilot will work in the background using a secure cloud-based development environment. The agent will explore the repository, make changes, and validate its work before it pushes. Developers can ask Copilot to make changes to pull requests by leaving comments. The agent excels in low-to-medium complex tasks in well-tested codebases.
