GitHub Copilot starts running coding tasks on a schedule

VS Code 1.137 adds scheduled agent tasks in public preview.

Tasks can run:

  • Every hour
  • Every day
  • Every week
  • Or on demand.

GitHub also added an experimental Voice Mode that lets users talk to Copilot, interrupt it and redirect it during a development task.

Scheduled Agents brings Copilot closer to an automation system operating even when the developer is not sitting at the code editor.
