Building with GitHub Copilot

Assigning Issues to Copilot

In the previous example, we assigned the issue to ourselves, but we can also assign it to Copilot by simply explaining it using natural language (e.g., "assign the issue to Copilot" or "assign the issue to GitHub Copilot bot," etc.).

Copilot will then call the assign_copilot_to_issue tool, assign the issue to itself, and start a coding session. When it's done, it will create a pull request with the changes and request a review from you.
