What you'll learn
Most GitHub Copilot work still happens one session at a time, with you watching. In this course, Advanced GitHub Copilot, you'll gain the ability to extend Copilot beyond a single session and set it up for the work your team repeats. First, you'll explore how to write an issue the Copilot cloud agent can complete on its own, assign it, and review the pull request it opens. Next, you'll discover how to install a plugin and connect the GitHub Copilot app to external tools and data using MCP. Finally, you'll learn how to design reusable prompt files and custom agents, and how to turn a prompt file into an agent skill the app can run. When you're finished with this course, you'll have the skills and knowledge of GitHub Copilot needed to delegate work, give a session the tools it needs, and reuse a workflow on your next feature.
