GitHub Copilot Enterprise Adds Real-Time Codebase Intelligence

GitHub Copilot Enterprise can now understand and reference an entire codebase in real-time, not just the open file.

This changes how large engineering teams use AI — from autocomplete to a genuine pair programmer with full project context.

Raises the ceiling on developer productivity and increases GitHub's lock-in among enterprise engineering orgs.

• →Enterprise developer tooling built on Copilot APIs
• →Codebase intelligence as a standalone product category

• →IP and code confidentiality concerns at scale

GitHub's AI coding helper can now read your entire codebase at once — like a new developer who's already read every file.

The new real-time indexing engine processes repositories up to 10M lines of code with sub-200ms retrieval latency. This is achieved through a hybrid architecture combining dense vector search with sparse keyword matching.
