Security reflects where data goes, requested permissions and incidents on record at the verification date. It is not a guarantee of zero risk: check the deployment mode and the connections you enable.

What it does, concretely

Development teams lose time switching between their coding environment and their team messaging app to discuss pull requests or ask technical questions. GitHub Copilot in Slack lets you query Copilot directly from Slack, without leaving the ongoing conversation.

In practice, the plugin is installed in the Slack workspace and allows users to ask questions about code, pull requests, or GitHub repositories directly within a thread. Copilot reads the threads it has been granted access to in order to provide contextualised answers.

This tool is aimed at development teams that already use GitHub Copilot and Slack on a daily basis. It extends Copilot's assistance to where technical discussions naturally take place.

On the other hand, it brings no value to teams that do not already have an active GitHub Copilot subscription, or to those who do not use Slack as their primary messaging platform.

What it offers

  • ·Ask questions about your code or GitHub repositories directly from a Slack thread.
  • ·Get information and summaries about pull requests without leaving Slack.
  • ·The plugin reads the Slack threads it has been explicitly authorised to access in order to contextualise its responses.
  • ·Access included in GitHub Copilot Business and Enterprise plans (paid).
  • ·Available for individual Copilot Pro subscribers and above (paid).
