About

The GitHub Copilot app is a desktop application introduced at Microsoft Build 2026. It is positioned as a control center for agent-based development. A single "My Work" view shows active agent sessions, issues, pull requests and background automations across connected repositories.

Each session runs in its own git worktree, so parallel agents do not interfere with each other, and the app manages the worktrees automatically. Sessions can start from a prompt or an issue. "Agent Merge" follows a pull request through CI, required reviewers and merge, within the automation limits the user chooses. Canvases are shared work surfaces, such as a plan, pull request, terminal or deployment view, that both people and agents can edit. Agents can run in local sandboxes on the user's machine or in isolated, ephemeral Linux sandboxes hosted by GitHub, with policies set by the organization.

The app is in technical preview and is available to existing Copilot Pro, Pro+, Business and Enterprise subscribers. A YouTube reviewer described it as similar to Codex but with a choice of models from different providers. That reviewer could not try it because new Copilot sign-ups were paused. The same agent runtime is available through the GitHub Copilot SDK, which is generally available for Node.js/TypeScript, Python, Go, .NET, Rust and Java.
