Fixing code quality findings on a pull request

How Code Quality works on pull requests

When you open a pull request, Code Quality runs two types of analysis and posts findings as comments on the pull request.

1. github-code-quality[bot] findings: Code Quality uses CodeQL to perform a rule-based scan of your changes. These findings are posted as comments by github-code-quality[bot] and include a suggested autofix. Findings are labeled by severity (Error, Warning, Note), and administrators can set quality gates to block merges based on the severity of these findings.

2. Copilot findings: If your organization has Copilot licenses and AI features are enabled for your enterprise, Code Quality uses révision du code Copilot to identify quality issues that rules-based analysis may not detect. These findings are posted as comments by Copilot, and include a suggested autofix. See À propos de la révision de code avec GitHub Copilot.

Resolving a finding

1. On GitHub, navigate to your open pull request.
2. On the Files Changed tab, scroll to a comment left by github-code-quality[bot] or Copilot.
3. Carefully review the comment and the suggested autofix for logic, security, and style.
4. If you agree with the suggestion and you want to apply the fix, click Commit suggestion, or Add suggestion to batch.
5. Alternatively, if the finding isn't relevant or actionable, you can dismiss the finding. For example, you might dismiss a finding that is in legacy code no longer maintained, is a known exception to your team's coding standards, or is a false positive that doesn't pose a real quality risk.
   • For comments left by github-code-quality[bot], click Dismiss finding.
   • For comments left by Copilot, click Resolve.

Delegating remediation work to Copilot

Sinon, si vous disposez d’une Copilot licence, vous pouvez déléguer le travail de correction à Agent cloud Copilot. Commentez la pull request en mentionnant @Copilot et demandez à Copilot de corriger les problèmes détectés.

Copilot répond avec un émoji de yeux (👀) à votre commentaire, démarre une nouvelle session pour l'agent et ouvre un pull request avec les correctifs nécessaires.

Vous pouvez suivre Agent cloud Copilotle travail :

• Dans le pull request, le résumé est mis à jour à mesure de l'avancement du travail.
• À l’aide de la page des agents ou des journaux de session, consultez Gestion des sessions des agents.

Vous avez besoin d’une Copilot licence pour appeler Agent cloud Copilot.
