GitHub Copilot is built as an AI assistant that works interactively inside code editors like VS Code. It doesn’t currently have an API or integration that allows it to be triggered automatically from GitHub Actions or other CI/CD workflows.

If you want to automate PR creation based on GitHub Issues, a good alternative is to use OpenAI’s API (for example, GPT models) in your GitHub Actions workflow. Your workflow can:

Read the issue content.

Send it to the OpenAI API to generate code, commit messages, or PR descriptions.

Use the GitHub API to create a branch, commit the generated code, and open a pull request automatically.

This approach lets you programmatically create PRs driven by AI without manual intervention.
