A chat request is not a shipped fix.
GitHub announced a consolidated Teams app that connects issue notifications with Copilot. The review step still belongs in the workflow.

From notification to a proposed change.
The announcement describes a bug notification, asking GitHub to investigate and create a pull request, then the team reviewing, testing and merging it.

A pull request makes the proposal visible.
It separates the suggested code change from the decision to accept it. A generated fix has not been verified merely because it exists.

Check the actual integration.
GitHub says existing notification users should update the app. GitHub says the legacy app will be renamed "GitHub (deprecated)" and retired on 16 November.

Keep a real acceptance gate.
What changed? Which tests and review support it? Who may merge or deploy? These are our checks, not a product performance claim.

Shorten the handoff, not the evidence.
Let the team inspect the proposed fix before it reaches users. No automation replaces that responsibility.
