With GitHub MCP enabled, Copilot can create and read issues directly from chat.
In this lesson, you will:
- create three focused GitHub issues from Copilot Chat.
- start a new chat session for one issue.
- implement and verify the issue.
Create issues
Send the following prompt:
Review the space quiz and suggest three focused feature ideas. Use the GitHub tools to create a separate issue for each with a clear title, user-focused description, and acceptance criteria. Do not implement them yet.
Implement one issue
- Open the GitHub view in the Activity Bar and inspect the new issues.
- Choose one issue, then select the + button in Copilot Chat to start a new session for it.
- Use Agent mode to implement the issue while the original session stays available for comparison.
- Run the integrated-browser smoke test from Lesson 3 before you create a pull request.
Summary and next steps
You created issues and implemented one in its own session. Continue to Lesson 8: Review and merge.
