## Prerequisites
|

|
|
* For information on premium requests and Actions minutes, see [Allowance usage for {% data variables.copilot.copilot_coding_agent %}](/billing/managing-billing-for-your-products/managing-billing-for-github-copilot/about-billing-for-github-copilot#allowance-usage-for-copilot-coding-agent).

## Enabling {% data variables.copilot.copilot_coding_agent %} for your members
|
|
|
|
{% data reusables.organizations.copilot-policy-ent-overrides-org %}
|
|
|
|
{% data variables.copilot.copilot_coding_agent %} and use of third-party MCP servers are disabled by default for organization members. Organization owners with {% data variables.product.prodname_copilot_enterprise %} can enable these features for members on the {% data variables.product.prodname_copilot_short %} policies page for their organization. See [Enabling {% data variables.product.prodname_copilot_short %} features in your organization](/copilot/managing-copilot/managing-github-copilot-in-your-organization/managing-policies-for-copilot-in-your-organization#enabling-copilot-features-in-your-organization).
|
|
|
|
* For the "{% data variables.copilot.copilot_coding_agent %}" policy, select "Enabled".
|
|
* For the "MCP servers on {% data variables.product.prodname_dotcom_the_website %}" policy, select "Enabled".

## Defining which repositories {% data variables.copilot.copilot_coding_agent %} can operate in
|
|
|
|
Owners of any organization—even organizations without a {% data variables.product.prodname_copilot_short %} plan—can define which repositories {% data variables.copilot.copilot_coding_agent %} can work in.
|
|
{% data reusables.profile.access_org %}
|
|
{% data reusables.profile.org_settings %}
|
|
{% data reusables.copilot.coding-agent-settings %}
|
|
1. Use the "Repository access" control to define which repositories allow {% data variables.copilot.copilot_coding_agent %}.
|
|
1. If you choose "Selected repositories", in the "Select repositories" dialog, select the repositories that allow {% data variables.copilot.copilot_coding_agent %}, then click **Select**.
|
|
|
|
Once Copilot coding agent is enabled for a repository, any user with access to Copilot coding agent and write permission for the repository can delegate work to Copilot.
|
|
|
|
## Next steps
|
|
|
|
* Tell the members of repositories where {% data variables.copilot.copilot_coding_agent %} is available that they can delegate work to the coding agent.
|
|
* Encourage members to educate themselves about setting up their repository to get the most from {% data variables.copilot.copilot_coding_agent %}. Useful resources:
