What is GitHub Copilot Workspace?
GitHub Copilot Workspace is GitHub's agentic coding environment. Starting from an issue, it creates a plan, implements changes across files, and opens a pull request — all within the GitHub web interface.
Who is it for? Developers and teams who want to delegate multi-step coding tasks to an autonomous agent.
