GitHub Universe hands-on exercises

Hands-on guides for trying the latest features in GitHub and Copilot. Explore the examples below, then launch an exercise to try them yourself.

The modern GitHub experience

Create stacked pull requests and attach screenshots to issues and PRs, right from the GitHub CLI.

Try in Codespaces

Opens a fresh workshop Codespace in a new tab.

monas-cafe — gh stack
monas-cafe > gh stack init fix/price-parser
✓ Started a stack on main

monas-cafe > git commit -am "Strip the $ before parseFloat"
monas-cafe > gh stack add -Am "Show prices as currency" fix/menu-display

monas-cafe > gh stack submit --auto
✓ Draft PR #3  fix/price-parser → main
✓ Draft PR #4  fix/menu-display → fix/price-parser

Two small pull requests, reviewed in order.

Build your own automation

Turn an issue into a proposed fix with a skill, current documentation, and a security review. Then automate it.

Build an automation

Opens the Universe welcome canvas in the Copilot app.

Skills

Open the existing issue-to-pr skill, edit its instructions, and run /issue-to-pr. Prepare your fork when you are ready to make changes.

Tools and connectors

Discover a documentation agent with /agentfinder. Add Context7 through Customize, look up current Node.js documentation, and add that lookup to your skill.

Security review

Run /security-review on the last PR created by the issue-to-pr skill. Review the fix in the PR, then add security review to the skill.

Automate

Go to Automations → New Automation, select your fork as the project, and enter /issue-to-pr. Choose a Manual trigger for now; schedule it later.

Can you turn an issue into a suggested fix?
