The best GitHub Copilot workflows don’t happen one–thing–at–a time. You might have an agent refactoring a module in VS Code, another debugging tests in the CLI, and a third scaffolding a new feature in the background.
Managing all of that used to only be possible from your desk. The moment you stepped away from your laptop, you lost visibility into every session you had running.
Now, developers can take their GitHub Copilot agent anywhere, with remote control for GitHub Copilot CLI sessions, now generally available on github.com and the GitHub Mobile app. We’re also introducing remote control in VS Code and JetBrains IDE, making GitHub Copilot truly multi-surface and available across any device.
How it works
Start a Copilot session in VS Code or the CLI, take it on the go with /remote on. Your session will be available on github.com and the GitHub Mobile app. Developers will experience one continuous workflow across CLI, VS Code, web, and mobile. Remote control works with any repository as well as directories without repositories, so you can take your work on the go, regardless of set up.
