The biggest shift in AI-assisted coding lately is not that tools can write code faster.
It is that they can now write reviews faster too.
On July 29, 2026, GitHub announced that Copilot code review gained GA support for agent skills and MCP-style integrations. In plain terms, AI can now read a larger chunk of your project context and run more structured checks without you manually typing every command.
That is useful, especially for you if you are building your first real AI-assisted app.
The change sounds great. It also sets a trap for beginners: when the agent starts doing more, you might start doing less.
