GitHub has unveiled an innovative AI-driven coding assistant designed to streamline software development workflows. The new feature, integrated into GitHub Copilot, autonomously handles coding tasks by generating pull requests after analyzing and resolving issues in a repository.

How the AI Coding Assistant Works

This advanced assistant operates within GitHub’s ecosystem, leveraging GitHub Actions to create an isolated development environment. When a developer assigns a task to the AI or initiates it via an integrated development environment (IDE) like Visual Studio Code, the system processes the request in the background.

Key functionalities include:

  • Automated Issue Resolution: The AI analyzes GitHub issues, proposes fixes, and submits changes via draft pull requests.

  • Real-Time Progress Tracking: Developers can monitor the AI’s actions through detailed session logs.

  • Security Compliance: All modifications follow existing repository rules, including branch protections, and require manual approval before merging.

Performance and Availability

According to GitHub’s leadership, the AI assistant performs exceptionally well in handling low-to-mid complexity tasks, such as:

  • Bug fixes and feature enhancements

  • Test case expansions

  • Code refactoring and documentation updates

The tool is currently accessible to GitHub Copilot Enterprise and Copilot Pro+ subscribers. Repository administrators must enable the feature before use. Additionally, a public preview is now available in popular IDEs, including:

  • Xcode

  • Eclipse

  • JetBrains suite

  • Visual Studio

Developers can activate the assistant by assigning issues through GitHub’s web interface, mobile app, or command-line tool (CLI)
