Open GitHub Copilot app sessions directly in VS Code
GitHub documents how to open a Copilot app session in Visual Studio Code while preserving the session’s task, plan, conversation, diff, and isolated worktree. This lets developers review agent-made changes, make manual edits, run local validation, and push updates to the pull request tracked by the session without recreating the session history.
