The list of top repositories cannot be edited, but repositories will drop off the list 1 year after you last interacted with them.

## Home dashboard view

{% data reusables.dashboard.home-dashboard-public-preview-note %}

To view the updated home dashboard, which is currently in {% data variables.release-phases.public_preview %}, you will first need to enable **New Dashboard Experience** with feature preview. For more information, see [AUTOTITLE](/get-started/using-github/exploring-early-access-releases-with-feature-preview#exploring-public-preview-releases-with-feature-preview).

The home dashboard includes:

* **A {% data variables.product.prodname_copilot %} prompt box**: You can prompt {% data variables.product.prodname_copilot %}, assign {% data variables.copilot.copilot_coding_agent %} to tasks, create an issue with {% data variables.product.prodname_copilot %}, and start building with {% data variables.product.prodname_spark %}.
* **Agent sessions**: A list of your running and past {% data variables.copilot.copilot_coding_agent %} sessions. Click **View all** to open the agents tab.
* **Pull requests**: A list of the most recent pull requests that you authored, reviewed, were mentioned on, or where you've been requested as a reviewer.
* **Issues**: A list of the most recent issues assigned to you or involving you.
