Reported experience

  1. What they did

    The author enabled the agent on their Angular site's repo (Copilot Pro+ or Enterprise). They wrote detailed GitHub Issues, drafting them with ChatGPT, for footer links and tighter filter-bar spacing, then assigned both to Copilot. The agent cloned the repo, planned, pushed to branches and draft PRs, and logged its steps. The author pulled and tested each branch.

  2. How it went

    Both PRs worked and were merged. The footer PR chose sensible routes unprompted. The spacing PR cut padding in two CSS classes, about 28px in total, with no cramped look. Only simple tasks were tried.

  3. Worth knowing

    The agent uses GitHub Actions minutes, and in this preview it needs a Pro+ or Enterprise plan. Detailed issues with acceptance criteria helped.

Example prompts

Try with GitHub Copilot
In my repo [owner/repo], I'm going to assign you two small website changes: [change 1, e.g. tighten the spacing in the header] and [change 2]. For each one, open a separate draft pull request with a short description of what you changed and why. Don't merge anything; stop once both draft PRs are open and tell me what to review.
