Summary

GitHub says Copilot Automations can now learn from their outcomes and propose changes to their own prompts. Humans review each proposed change before it takes effect. The feature requires Copilot Pro, Pro+, Max, Business, or Enterprise.

Key Points

  • GitHub says a triage automation learns from whether people change the labels it applied.
  • A weekly improvement automation analyzes how developers respond to review comments, then proposes refinements.
  • GitHub notifies users when a proposed change touches an automation's prompt, tools, or triggers.
