GitHub agentic autofix for code scanning alerts hits general availability
Assigning a code scanning alert to Copilot now explores your codebase, proposes a fix, reruns CodeQL to confirm the alert closes, then opens a draft pull request for review.
It replaces the free Generate Fix option with Assign to Copilot, needs an enterprise admin to enable the new Agentic autofix policy, and consumes AI Credits plus Actions minutes.
