## Overview
|
|
|
|
{% data reusables.copilot.coding-agent.what-is %}
|
|
|
|
If you are a {% data variables.copilot.copilot_enterprise %} or {% data variables.copilot.copilot_for_business %} subscriber, {% data variables.copilot.copilot_coding_agent %} is disabled by default and must be enabled by an administrator before it is available for use.
|
|
|
|
If you are a {% data variables.copilot.copilot_pro %} or Pro+ subscriber, {% data variables.copilot.copilot_coding_agent %} is enabled by default.
|
|
|
|
Once enabled, you can use {% data variables.copilot.copilot_coding_agent %} in any repository, provided that an administrator hasn't opted the repository out.

## Opting repositories out of {% data variables.copilot.copilot_coding_agent %}

|

By default, users with {% data variables.copilot.copilot_coding_agent %} enabled can use it in all repositories.
|
|
|
|
Enterprise administrators and organization owners (for organization-owned repositories) and users (for user-owned repositories) can opt out repositories and prevent {% data variables.copilot.copilot_coding_agent %} from being used in those repositories.
