GitHub Copilot app generally available 🚀

[ebndev]

The GitHub Copilot app is now generally available for macOS, Windows, and Linux. It's the desktop home for agent-driven development, built natively on GitHub.

Download the GitHub Copilot app to start your first session.

Start a session from an issue, pull request, or prompt. Run parallel sessions across repositories, each on its own branch and worktree. Review the diff, validate in the integrated terminal and browser, and open a pull request that uses your team's existing checks and merge requirements.

Since the technical preview, we've also added:

• Canvases: Use bidirectional surfaces where you and the agent operate on the same plan, pull request, terminal, or browser session, so progress is visible and steerable instead of buried in chat.
• Cloud automations: Schedule recurring agent work in the cloud so it doesn't depend on your machine being awake.
• Bring your own model and tools: Pick the model behind each session and connect external tools through MCP servers.

Note: To access the GitHub Copilot app on a Copilot Business or Enterprise plan, your organization or enterprise admin must have the Copilot CLI enabled in policy settings.

Not generally available yet. Still requires a paid GHC plan, and you can't sign up to one if you don't already have one at present.
