Running five coding agents at once in the GitHub Copilot app
GitHub’s new Copilot desktop app runs multiple coding agents in parallel, each session isolated in its own git worktree, and is already included in Copilot Pro, Pro+, Business and Enterprise subscriptions. Getting value from it depends less on prompting than on task selection, worktree hygiene, supervision cadence and engineered review capacity, because five agents can open pull requests faster than one reviewer can read them.
