GitHub Agent Merge
A Copilot feature that watches a pull request and fixes failing Actions workflows and merge conflicts in a cloud environment.
Overview
Agent Merge, released October 28, 2026, adds a 'Watch and fix' option to the pull request merge box. When a selected blocker appears, either failing GitHub Actions workflows, merge conflicts or both, Copilot works in a cloud development environment to resolve it. It can be enabled by default for all of a user's pull requests in Copilot settings and combined with auto-merge so GitHub merges once requirements pass. It was already in the Copilot app and VS Code and is now built into pull requests on GitHub for users on a paid Copilot plan, subject to organization and enterprise policies.
