Claude and Codex now available in public preview on GitHub

Claude Users can start sessions and assign work from github.com, GitHub Mobile, and VS Code. Entry points include issues, pull requests, the Agents tab in enabled repositories, and the agent sessions view in VS Code. Enterprise admins must enable agents at the enterprise level through Enterprise AI Controls. They must also enable agents at the organization level in the Copilot tab under Coding agent. Repository owners can then select which agents to enable in their Copilot coding agent settings. On GitHub.com and the mobile app, users access the Agents tab or use the agents dropdown to submit requests and select Claude or Codex. Agents can be assigned to issues or pull requests via the Assignees dropdown. They generate draft pull requests and respond to feedback using mentions such as @claude or @codex. In VS Code version 1.109 or later, users open the Agent sessions view to choose local, cloud, or background sessions. Progress can be tracked in real time through session lists on web and mobile.
