GitHub Copilot

Start and track GitHub Copilot coding agent tasks from Raycast 🤖

How it works

• Create Task: Kick off a Copilot coding agent job for a chosen repository and base branch using your prompt. The agent works in the background, opens a pull request and tags you for review.
• View Tasks: Track the progress of tasks you've given to Copilot, and jump to the PR or session logs in GitHub. Available as a Raycast command, and from the menu bar.
• AI Assistant: Use the AI tools to help create tasks, search repositories, and get repository information through natural language.

Requirements

• Access to GitHub Copilot coding agent, available for Copilot Pro, Pro+, Business and Enterpise users. If you're a Business or Enterprise subscriber, an administrator will have to enable the feature.
• Authentication with your GitHub account with OAuth: The first time you use the extension, you'll be asked to connect your account, providing repo, workflow and read:org permissions.
