+The code generation dashboard shows how {% data variables.product.prodname_copilot_short %} is generating code across your enterprise. By comparing user-initiated and agent-initiated activity across models, languages, and modes, you can see how teams are adopting AI-assisted and agent-driven development.
+
+## Prerequisite
+
+"{% data variables.product.prodname_copilot_short %} usage metrics" must be enabled on the AI Control tab. See [AUTOTITLE](/copilot/how-tos/administer-copilot/manage-for-enterprise/manage-enterprise-policies#defining-policies-for-your-enterprise).

+
+## What you can view
+
+The dashboard shows aggregated code generation activity across your enterprise, including:
+
+* **Lines of code changed with AI**. The total lines of code added and deleted across all modes.
+* **User-initiated code changes**. Lines suggested or manually added through completions and chat actions.
+* **Agent-initiated code changes**. Lines automatically added or deleted by agents across edit, agent, and custom modes.
+* **Activity by model and language**. User-initiated and agent-initiated activity grouped by model and language.
+

 ## How agent mode affects LoC metrics
 
 Unlike completions or chat, {% data variables.copilot.copilot_agent_short %} does not follow a “suggest then accept” flow. Agents plan and execute multi-step tasks, often editing multiple files iteratively without explicit acceptance by the user. Because of this, LoC metrics for agent activity are measured differently.
