GitHub Copilot, a coding agent, can be integrated into development workflows through five strategies to enhance productivity and innovation. These include using the Agents panel to manage tech debt by batching and automating mundane tasks, validating UI changes with the Playwright MCP server for automated testing and screenshots, experimenting with branch strategies for safe prototyping, choosing the right entry points for tasks based on context and convenience, and extending functionality with custom Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers. By leveraging these strategies, developers can transform Copilot from a simple suggestion tool into a collaborative partner that helps tackle tech debt, streamline UI testing, and safely experiment with new features, ultimately allowing developers to focus more on creative challenges. The guide encourages developers to view Copilot as a collaborator that can unlock new possibilities, with a call to action to integrate it into their workflows for enhanced efficiency and innovation.
