Running multiple AI agents on the same project seems like pure chaos, with too many cooks in your development kitchen. But with the GitHub Copilot app, these agents work separately and don’t interfere with each other, allowing you to get more done in less time.
Think of parallel agent sessions like a trip to the laundromat. You can start multiple loads of laundry at the same time, in their own machines. You can set each washer with its own settings, and it won’t impact the other loads. Most importantly, you don’t have to wait for one to finish before you can start another one.
Let’s look at how it works.

An agent session is a task you’ve given Copilot, start to finish.
