Summary

GitHub Copilot’s app supports parallel agent sessions that let developers assign multiple independent tasks to AI agents without disrupting work already in progress. Each session can operate in its own Git worktree and retain separate context, enabling simultaneous work on features, accessibility reviews, testing, and other tasks while reducing context switching and manual monitoring. A sessions view displays each task’s title and progress, allowing users to review results as agents finish or leave them running unattended. The approach is compared to running separate laundry loads at once, and users are encouraged to begin by trying two small concurrent tasks.
