Build more with agents in VS Code

Tell agents what you need, and they'll craft a plan, build, and verify it while you stay in control.

From prompt to finished task

Give an agent a goal and let it take on the implementation, while you decide how much direction and review the work needs.

Plan before you build

Inspect the codebase, identify dependencies, and review the agent's approach before any files change.

Close the loop

Agents edit code, run commands, diagnose failures, and iterate until the checks pass.

Parallelize independent work

Run bug fixes, refactors, and upgrades in separate sessions with their own context and progress.

Trace work through the whole development lifecycle

Trace each task from the initial plan to the final diff. Agents inspect the repository, edit files, run commands, and use test or build failures to guide the next pass.

Approve sensitive actions, inspect changes as they land, and redirect the work without losing progress.

Everywhere you work

Delegate from the Agents window, collaborate alongside your code, or stay in the terminal. Switch surfaces as the task evolves without restarting or re-explaining the work.

Orchestrate work across agents

Track sessions, review progress, and jump into any task that needs direction while long-running work continues in the background.

Manage agent sessions

Build alongside your agent

Use Chat for a code-first workflow where you can inspect edits as they happen, ask follow-up questions, and take over in the editor whenever you want.

The full VS Code editing experience stays within reach, including IntelliSense, refactoring, source control, testing, and debugging.

Get started with agents in VS Code

Copilot CLI agent working in a terminal session.

Run agents from the command line

Start agent work from the command line, review the commands it wants to run, and keep the complete workflow in your shell.

When a task needs a closer look, open it in VS Code to inspect the code and continue from the editor.

npm install -g @github/copilot

Put agents to work across your codebase

Apply agents across the development lifecycle, from prototyping and debugging to pull requests and release notes.

Build a feature end-to-end

Describe a feature in natural language. The agent scaffolds, implements across files, and runs tests to verify.

Debug and fix failing tests

Point an agent at a failing test. It traces the root cause, applies a fix, and reruns the test to confirm.

Refactor or migrate a codebase

Plan a migration between frameworks or APIs. The agent applies coordinated changes and verifies them with builds and tests.

Ship prototypes, not specs

Turn user feedback, a Figma file, or a rough idea into a working pull request the team can review and refine.

Audit accessibility and UX

An agent launches your app, navigates the feature, and verifies behavior, layout, and accessibility.

Write docs and release notes

Turn changes across repositories into documentation, changelogs, release notes, and summaries.
