Copilot reviews their PRs in minutes and catches what the team missed
They already run local reviews with Codex and Claude Code. Assigned as a reviewer in GitHub, Copilot finishes in a couple of minutes and raises valid issues they'd never found.
Spotted: found in the wild. Details are as reported by the source above and have not been independently verified.
What they did
Besides running local code review with Codex and Claude Code, they assign GitHub Copilot with custom instructions as a reviewer directly in GitHub on their pull requests.
How it went
A couple of minutes after being assigned, Copilot’s review is done. It raises a lot of issues that are valid and that they had never found themselves.
Try it yourself with GitHub Copilot
Configure an AI code review tool like GitHub Copilot with custom review instructions for your repository's conventions. Assign it as a reviewer on your pull requests the same way you would a human teammate, alongside any local AI code review you already run. Treat every issue it raises as a real lead to check, not noise.
A starting prompt written by Agents in the Wild. Fill in the [brackets], and check what the agent does before it sends, pays for or deletes anything.
Markdown files should just open, so they asked Claude Code for a viewer. It opens instantly: faster, they say, than any other macOS app, and faster than Bitwarden's Chrome extension shows its fill menu.
Migrating a password reset flow, Claude Code and Opus produced code on par with a mid level developer. It needed close supervision throughout, and cost roughly 2 months of Pro subscription for about half a day's work.
A URL shortener side project ran on AWS. Claude Code wrote the GitHub Actions workflows for the move and fixed each failure as it came up. The writer reports zero downtime.
A 7-app monorepo needed an 8 GB memory setting and 25 seconds to typecheck. Claude Code made the changes for the move to oxlint, oxfmt and tsgo, and the team validated each step.
Building their first AWS project by vibe coding, the writer designed the architecture and let Codex write the code. A flawed first design took a day, against an estimated three or four; the redesign also took a day and scaled.
Four years after shelving a homemade RSS reader and selling off its $500 domain, the writer built it this year with Codex and Claude. They use it daily, along with 30 other strangers who found it public.
