GitHub Copilot API Adds AI Credit Tracking
GitHub has enhanced its Copilot usage metrics API by including a new field that tracks AI credits consumed per user. This addition allows enterprise administrators and organization owners to monitor AI credit usage alongside existing usage metrics, providing insights into how Copilot is being utilized across teams. By understanding consumption patterns, organizations can better plan for usage-based billing and assess the value Copilot delivers. This update does not break down credits by feature or model, but it offers a clearer picture of overall user activity.

GitHub Copilot Enhances Code Review with AGENTS.md
GitHub's Copilot code review now integrates AGENTS.md files, enabling developers to customize feedback according to their repository's unique standards. This enhancement allows Copilot to automatically apply instructions from AGENTS.md, resulting in more context-sensitive reviews. The introduction of a Request button for draft pull requests simplifies the process of engaging Copilot's input, reducing the steps needed for developers. These improvements are designed to make code reviews more effective and aligned with the specific guidelines of each project.

GitHub Launches Duplicate Issue Detection Preview
GitHub has introduced a public preview feature aimed at reducing the time maintainers spend on triaging duplicate issues. This new tool flags potential duplicate issues during the creation process, offering up to three suggestions inline to help users identify existing reports. Additionally, AI tools connected to the GitHub MCP server can now interact with issue fields, allowing for automated triaging and filtering based on various criteria. This development promises to streamline issue management for large repositories, potentially saving maintainers significant time and effort.
