GitHub intelligence
GitHub's context layer for Copilot agents: cross-client memory, 'dreaming' that proposes skill updates, and cross-repo code search.
Overview
GitHub announced GitHub intelligence on October 28, 2026 as the context and learning layer built on the graph of GitHub data. Memory carries preferences and repository conventions across the Copilot app, CLI, VS Code, cloud agent, code review, Slack, Teams and GitHub Mobile; it is generally available on paid plans, and GitHub reports 93% of reviewed CLI sessions showed better adherence to developer preferences in public preview. Dreaming reflects on past work and proposes changes to checked-in skills and instructions as pull requests; it is opt-in public preview and its runs consume AI credits. Code search lets Copilot search related repositories and dependencies without a local clone.
This is a sourced directory entry. Features and capabilities are reported in the linked sources; this entry does not document independent Aymorphic testing.
