Copilot Workspace - A reimagined developer inner loop with AI assistance at every step
summary
Copilot Workspace claims to turn a GitHub issue into a steerable spec, plan and code change using GPT‑4 and live codespace execution; it selects a repository slice (demo shows 19 files listed), generates diffs and creates a PR or a shareable session snapshot. Benchmarks on 300 curated issues show a 37% perfect selection rate, ~56% average file coverage and ~42% end‑to‑end success, with an example run taking about 21 seconds end‑to‑end. Tools: ctags, TF‑IDF ranking, Cosmos DB, Azure.
