Code GenerationGenerates functions, implementation code and application changes from prompts; agents can write files and iterate.Not specified
Inline Code EditingInline chat and suggested edits in supported editors; users can accept proposed changes. Availability depends on IDE.Not specified
Multi-File EditingAgents can coordinate changes across project files; review diffs before keeping or merging changes.Not specified
Code ExplanationExplains selected code, project behavior and coding concepts through chat with repository context.Not specified
RefactoringCan propose or apply targeted refactors through chat and agents; correctness depends on project context and validation.Not specified
Debugging AssistanceSuggests fixes and investigates failures using source context and available tools; command execution requires an agent-capable surface.Not specified
Test GenerationGenerates unit tests and additional test suites from code or feature requirements.Not specified
Documentation GenerationCan create or update README files, code comments and project documentation through prompts and agent workflows.Not specified
Code ReviewCopilot code review produces pull-request feedback and suggested changes. Paid-plan access, organization policies and usage charges apply.Not specified

Agents & Execution

9 specifications +
SpecificationGitHub CopilotSecond model
Agent Mode & PlanningAsk, Agent and Plan modes in supported IDEs; CLI has planning and execution modes. Administrators can restrict agents.Not specified
Terminal Command ExecutionCLI and supported IDE agents can execute shell commands with permission controls; cloud agent runs commands in its environment.Not specified
Automated Test ExecutionAgents can run project tests and linters when the environment and dependencies are configured; generated tests do not imply successful execution.Not specified
Browser InteractionCopilot app connects browser workflows; optional computer use in local CLI/app sessions can interact with desktop applications on macOS and Windows. Tools and permissions must be enabled.Not specified
Background / Cloud AgentsPaid plans include asynchronous Copilot cloud agent for repository tasks and pull requests. Cloud sandboxes for CLI are public preview.Not specified
Parallel Agent TasksCopilot app manages parallel sessions and repository workstreams; CLI cloud sandboxes support multiple parallel tasks. Capacity depends on available resources and usage.Not specified
Human Approval ControlsCLI asks approval for tools that modify or execute files, with session allow/deny options. Agent changes and pull requests remain reviewable; policies vary by surface.Not specified
Execution Isolation / SandboxCloud agent uses an ephemeral firewalled environment with security scans. CLI offers optional local sandboxing and isolated cloud sandboxes; local trust permissions alone are not a sandbox.Not specified
Execution EnvironmentLocal and cloud execution. Hosted-model requests are processed remotely unless a supported local BYOK configuration is used.
