Agents that fix their own pull requests: Autoheal at Microsoft Build 2026
A session on pairing GitHub Copilot with Autoheal agents, so failing checks get diagnosed and fixed before a reviewer ever opens the pull request.

Overview
At Build, Sid showed developers what happens after an AI assistant opens a pull request. When CI fails, Autoheal agents read the logs, reproduce the failure and push a tested fix to the same branch, so reviewers only see green builds.
Reviewers should spend their time on design decisions, not on red builds.
Key takeaways:
Most CI failures on agent-written code fall into a few repeatable patterns.
Fixing on the same branch keeps history clean and reviews short.
Clear ownership rules stop agents and humans from stepping on each other.
