GitHub Copilot Cloud Agent: Fix Merge Conflicts in 3 Clicks

TL;DR

• New "Fix with Copilot" button resolves merge conflicts automatically on github.com
• Copilot cloud agent now handles failing tests, code review comments, and custom PR changes via @copilot mentions
• Available on all paid Copilot plans; Enterprise/Business users need admin enablement

New

• Fix with Copilot button — One-click merge conflict resolution that auto-runs tests and pushes changes from Copilot's cloud environment.
• @copilot mentions in PRs — Ask Copilot to fix failing workflows, address review comments, or make arbitrary code changes directly in pull request threads.

How It Works

• Click "Fix with Copilot" on a conflicted PR, submit the prepopulated comment, and Copilot resolves conflicts, validates the build and tests pass, then pushes automatically.
• Use @copilot Fix the failing tests, @copilot Address this comment, or any custom instruction to trigger changes without leaving the PR.

Availability

• All paid Copilot plans (Pro, Business, Enterprise) have access to the cloud agent feature.
• Copilot Business and Enterprise admins must explicitly enable Copilot cloud agent before team members can use it.

Update: Enable Copilot cloud agent in your GitHub organization settings or upgrade to a paid Copilot plan. See the GitHub docs on making changes to existing PRs for full details.
