Here, there, and everywhere. Agent mode in multi-file edits helps GitHub Copilot gather context across multiple files, suggest and test edits, and validate changes for your approval—so you can make comprehensive updates with speed and accuracy.

  • Ask for an outcome. Just say what you want and let GitHub Copilot execute the necessary changes across multiple files.
  • Don’t sweat the small stuff. With agent mode, GitHub Copilot calls tools and iterates on errors so you can focus on the big picture.
