## About

GitHub Copilot is an AI coding agent built into GitHub. According to the page, it helps with every step of software development, from exploring a codebase and planning a project to automating workflows, reviewing changes and resolving merge conflicts.

A change can start as an issue, be picked up by an agent, return as a pull request, be reviewed for quality and security, and then be merged. The agent works with the same code, history, issues and pull requests that a team already uses, so the work stays in one place instead of moving between tools.

Copilot is available in several editors, including Visual Studio Code, Visual Studio, the JetBrains IDEs, Xcode, Vim, Neovim, Zed and Eclipse. It also runs in the terminal through Copilot CLI, in a desktop app, on the web, on mobile and in Slack and Teams. A session started on one surface can be continued on another.

For tasks, you can run several sessions in parallel, schedule reusable agent tasks, and review local changes before opening a pull request. Copilot can use repository instructions and skills, and connectors for other services. You can choose a model for each task or let Copilot pick one, and some cloud models can be connected with your own API key.

The page lists four individual plans. Free costs $0 and includes 2,000 completions and access to entry-level models each month. Pro costs $10 per user per month, Pro+ $39 and Max $100. Paid plans include unlimited code completions and draw on monthly AI credits, where one credit is $0.01, for chat and agent work. GitHub Enterprise includes Copilot access, and the page describes Copilot for Business as a separate offering.
