GitHub Copilot App | Hacker News

Hacker News commenters debated GitHub’s Copilot App launch and its worktree-based agent coding workflow.

The thread compared Copilot App with Codex, Cursor, and Claude Code in the fast-moving AI coding tools race.

A key theme was whether AI coding should stay in isolated developer sessions or become more collaborative with product teams.

Commenters also noted GitHub’s stronger design investment in Copilot versus stacked PRs, and questioned whether desktop agent apps will evolve into remote or cloud development.
