GitHub has optimized the Copilot coding agent to start work 50% faster. The agent can be triggered by assigning issues to Copilot, using the Agents tab in a repository, or mentioning @copilot in pull request comments. It operates in a cloud-based development environment, makes code changes, runs tests, and pushes results. The speed improvement means faster PR creation and quicker iteration cycles.
