I created a PR and tried having GitHub Copilot review it as a test. We can request a Copilot review directly from the PR page. However, it requires Premium requests, so not everyone can use this feature.
I'm not sure how useful it really is, but it’s certainly convenient to try. https://github.com/sympy/sympy/pull/28598 document: https://docs.github.com/en/copilot/how-tos/use-copilot-agents/request-a-code-review/use-code-review -- haru-44 2025年11月13日木曜日 22:36:30 UTC+9 Oscar: > On Thu, 13 Nov 2025 at 12:03, Daiki Takahashi <[email protected]> wrote: > > > > Let me make this clear upfront: all of my posts on GitHub, including > this one, rely on translation by an LLM. > > > > I believe it would be reasonable to explicitly state in the policy that > spam-like PRs and PRs relying heavily on LLMs are prohibited. > > It is very difficult to define what is meant by "spam-like" and I > doubt that someone submitting a PR would understand this in the same > way as reviewers would. > > There are different ways of using LLMs and the way that you use them > is absolutely fine.
