GitHub Copilot Enterprise subscribers in Visual Studio can now use Copilot Chat to get answers enriched with context from Copilot knowledge bases. To try out this functionality, you’ll need to be running Visual Studio 17.11 Preview 3 or later.
You can access a knowledge base from any Copilot Chat conversation by typing @github
, pressing the #
key, selecting a knowledge base from the autocomplete, and then entering your question. Copilot will respond, using the Markdown documentation in your knowledge base as context for its answer.
For more details, check out the docs for Copilot Chat in Visual Studio. To try Copilot Chat yourself, download the extension.
