Boost your coding productivity with Github Copilot Agent

July 11, 2025 11:00 โ€“ 11:30 ยท 30 min Stage 3 - Microsoft

What this session covers

This year, Github introduced the agent mode for GitHub Copilot in Visual Studio Code, announcing the general availability of Copilot Edits, and providing a first look at our SWE agent. In this talk, we will demonstrate the difference between the three modes and show the advantages to use the agent mode. In agent mode, Copilot will iterate on not just its own output, but the result of that output. And it will iterate until it has completed all the subtasks required to complete your prompt. Instead of performing just the task you requested, Copilot now has the ability to infer additional tasks that were not specified but are also necessary for the primary request to work.
