GitHub Copilot code review settings become manageable via REST and GraphQL APIs
Changelog item published 2026-11-07T00:27:19Z: enterprise-to-repo policy via API, more compact review overview, billing and auto-review fixes; Pro through Enterprise.
Why it matters
GitHub already let teams request Copilot reviews and choose effort over REST. This update adds API management of code-review settings from enterprise policy down to individual repositories, plus a more compact overview comment and reliability fixes. It is a tooling change for orgs that script Copilot governance rather than a new model.
