It's Clippy but for Claude! These lil' agents walk around on your dock and you can interact with them for your Claude CLI sessions 😄

Ask @copilot to make changes to any pull request - GitHub Changelog You can now mention @copilot in any pull request to ask Copilot to make changes. You can ask @copilot to: Fix failing GitHub Actions workflows: @copilot Fix the failing tests…

You can now mention @copilot directly in a PR comment and it pushes changes to that same PR.

No new branch, no extra PR on top. Just "fix the failing tests" and it does!

Doesn't work on fork PRs yet, hopefully that's coming soon as well 🤞

EVERY. DAY.

And that is why AI will take over at some point.
