A PM checks a task card in Notion → the system syncs it to a GitHub issue → writes a plan → writes code → opens a PR for human review. This post explains what the system does, what it doesn't do, and why it's feasible now — written for people who don't write code.
GitHub Copilot Coding Agent lets you assign an Issue to Copilot, which then automatically creates a branch, writes code, runs CI, and opens a PR — all inside a cloud sandbox. The key to success is setting up AGENTS.md; without it, the agent tends to go off track. Best suited for well-defined medium-sized tasks; requires Pro+ (1,500 premium requests/month) or Enterprise plan.
