"The move is part of Agent HQ, GitHub's vision to make AI agents native to how developers use GitHub every day. Developers can now choose Copilot, Claude, Codex or other custom agents when they're creating a task. Each coding agent will consume a premium request, and developers can assign agents to issues and pull requests. Developers will also be able to judge how Copilot, Claude, and Codex perform, and weigh up how each AI coding agent has generated a solution."
"GitHub has been quick to embrace rival AI models and agents to improve its own Copilot offering. Developers are already able to access models from Anthropic, Google, xAI, and OpenAI in GitHub Copilot, so integrating in rival AI coding agents feels like a natural next step. Access to Claude and Codex will expand to more GitHub Copilot subscription types soon, and GitHub is also working with Google, Cognition, and xAI to bring more agents into GitHub, Visual Studio Code, and the Copilot CLI."
GitHub is adding Anthropic's Claude and OpenAI's Codex as coding agents inside GitHub, GitHub Mobile, and Visual Studio Code, available in public preview to Copilot Pro Plus and Copilot Enterprise subscribers. The integration is part of Agent HQ, enabling developers to choose Copilot, Claude, Codex, or custom agents when creating tasks, assign agents to issues and pull requests, and have each agent consume a premium request. Developers can compare agent performance and review generated solutions. GitHub plans broader access for more Copilot subscription tiers and is collaborating with Google, Cognition, and xAI to bring additional agents into GitHub tooling.
