GitHub Copilot
Microsoft and GitHub's AI pair programmer in your editor
Part of this entry was LLM-drafted and is being polished.
GitHub Copilot ships AI completions, chat, and an autonomous agent mode in VS Code, JetBrains, Visual Studio, Neovim and the GitHub web. Lets you pick between GPT-5, Claude, and Gemini for chat / agent. Includes built-in PR review and code review agents.
Editor's verdict
The safe default for teams already on GitHub. Inline completion is solid and predictable. Agent mode is improving but still trails Cursor and Claude Code on multi-file edits. Pay for it when GitHub is your source of truth and you need org-level licensing; otherwise Cursor's UX is more polished.
Use cases
- inline code completion
- pr review automation
- agent mode coding
