/delegate in Copilot CLI. You hand Copilot a task, it creates a branch, opens a draft PR, and starts working while you keep moving. No IDE. No babysitting. Just delegate from the terminal and review when it’s ready. Go walk your dog.

Proof it works = happy Wilson

Delegating code is easy. Delegating context is impossible.

Fair, that’s where having a well thought/outlined issue can help

@kellypeilinchan Should I create a very well and long issue to delegate Copilot to do what I want it to do? 👀

I think precision matters less than lenght, think of how you document an issue to pass on a task to a teammate. Same way write an issue that tells the agent exactly what’s broken, where to look, what done looks like, and what not to touch. The agent can figure out the actual implementation.

@kellypeilinchan Matters * comma less than lenght lol Spanglish grammar there, ósea precision>lenght

Saving this. Too good not to share! (I follow back btw! 👋)

Is there Jira support?

Not native but you can configure the Jira MCP so yes!

Awesome! Can I delegate to Copilot from Jira tickets using the MCP?

This is very cool!

Thanks for watching Peter! Give a try!

will do!

Ohhh yes.

So good right! Thanks for looking Nico

/delegate indeed!

ok this is sick

Pure magic. ✨ With /delegate making the PR for me, I guess it’s finally time to go walk my dog while the terminal does the heavy lifting! 🐕💨

This is actually super cool. More like delegating my work to another person.

how to select which model the delegated task picks?

I don’t think I am ready for the no-babysitting part but will try this and see if I am ready to adopt it or not.

Super fair!!! Is only about personal comfort level and experimentation

delegate from terminal and go walk your dog. the model that makes you forget its running wins

wild how “brb walking my dog” is now a legitimate dev workflow
