How: Use GitHub Copilot in PR reviews to speed fixes
I want a practical workflow where Copilot helps suggest PR fixes and generates patch suggestions during code review for a TypeScript monorepo; need steps for reviewer prompts, security checks, and CI gating. Team: 8 engineers.

Quick workflow for a TypeScript monorepo (8 devs):
1) On PR open: CI runs install, tsc --noEmit, eslint, unit tests, coverage, dependency scan and CodeQL.
2) Reviewer opens files in VS Code with GitHub Copilot; use focused prompts like “Fix TS errors and preserve behavior”, “Convert any -> precise types”, or “Add unit test for ”. Let Copilot produce small edits, then post GitHub suggestion or push a fix branch.
3) Gate merge on CI green + 2 approvals + passing security scan.
