What GitHub Copilot is, and how its flights are identified
GitHub Copilot is a coding agent made by GitHub (product page ↗). A flight is attributed to GitHub Copilot by the Copilot and copilot-swe-agent[bot] authors, the copilot-swe-agent co-author line, and copilot/ branch names. Every flight on this page is a public pull request on GitHub; outcomes are classified deterministically from the review record — see how the Guild counts and what counts as a flight.
