GitHub Copilot turns Teams notifications into coding-agent work
GitHub's consolidated Teams app can now receive issue notifications and let a user mention @GitHub to investigate, fix the bug and open a pull request from the conversation. Existing GitHub Notifications users can update in place, while the separate legacy GitHub app is scheduled to retire on 16 November.
Why it matters: The workflow collapses notification, repository selection and code generation into one chat surface. That shortens response time but makes Teams identity, selected repository, issue text, agent permissions and the final pull request one authorization chain.
