Microsoft Azure is introducing Visual Studio Code’s agent mode to all users, which now includes MCP support, allowing you to access any context or feature you desire
With more context for your tools and services, GitHub Copilot is more agentic now, powered by the best models
Agent mode pushes Copilot beyond answering a question with straightforward prompts
You can use OpenAI GPT-4o, Google Gemini 2.0 Flash, or Claude 3.5 and 3.7 Sonnet to power agent mode
By giving agent mode useful features like searching through code and repositories, handling issues, and generating PRs, the GitHub local MCP server transforms agent mode into a potent GitHub platform user
Microsoft Azure is included several additional models for conversation, multi-file editing, and now agent mode since GitHub Universe
Starting on May 5, 2025, 300 monthly premium requests will be sent to Copilot Pro customers
