Github copilot agent created and deployed this article to production
I wanted to evaluate the capabilities of GitHub's coding agent, so I designed a quick experiment: I asked the agent to author a new article and automatically open a pull request to publish it. Since the blog uses markdown files for content (with no database involved), this was a straightforward scenario to demonstrate autonomous content creation and deployment.
Prompt used to generate this article:
I would like you to create a new post to my blog. The content of the blog is using md files that you can find on the repository, and some config in python must be added to make sure it is published. The title of this post is: "Github copilot agent created and deployed this article to production". The objective of this article is to show your capability as a coding agent to create content, create a pull request, and making the changes in code. Make this article very short, and simply show the prompt I am writing right now to disclose how this was done.
