GitHub Copilot
AI coding assistance across editors, GitHub, and the CLI

About GitHub Copilot
GitHub Copilot is an AI coding assistant that suggests complete lines and functions, explains concepts, proposes edits, and validates files. It works across GitHub, IDEs, the CLI, project tools, chat apps, and custom MCP servers.
It supports agent-driven workflows, including assigning tasks to Copilot, Claude by Anthropic, and OpenAI Codex. Teams can create shared project context from documentation and repositories, track agent activity, and manage access to MCP servers.
A Free plan is available at $0 per user per month with 2,000 monthly completions, access to selected models, Copilot CLI, and community support. The Pro plan costs $10 per user per month and includes unlimited code completion, cloud agent access, third-party agents, model selection, and monthly credits.
Highlights
- Code completion and next-edit suggestions
- Agent mode for planning, exploring, and executing work
- Available in GitHub, IDEs, the CLI, and other project tools
- Shared project context through Copilot Spaces
- Enterprise controls, audit logs, and MCP server allow lists
Best in class. The team ships improvements weekly and actually listens to feedback on Discord. Rare.
