What repo-actions-hub does

This plugin connects to GitHub Copilot to display repository GitHub Actions workflows in a Copilot canvas. You can inspect recent runs and check their execution status without switching windows.

The extension triggers manual workflow_dispatch events right from the canvas view. You start pipelines right here. That helps when re-running failed jobs or testing automation.

Authored by James Montemagno, the plugin is licensed under MIT and maintained in the Awesome Copilot repository. If you never trigger actions manually, skip it. For active workflow management, it is a practical addition.

inspect recent GitHub Actions workflow runs

Example prompts for the agent
