# Copilot Chat improvements for pull requests

**[GitHub Changelog](https://daily.dev/sources/github_updates)** · 1 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

GitHub Copilot Chat has received new capabilities for working with pull requests. When a PR is provided as context, Copilot now includes richer data such as comments, file changes, commits, and reviews. Three new abilities are available: PR understanding (full context ingestion), PR review (structured review on request), and PR summary (concise overview of changes). These features work in both on-page and immersive chat at github.com/copilot, and public-preview users can also trigger chat directly from a diff view via the Copilot button.
