Overview

This PR updates the GitHub Copilot Skills course to document the URL Context feature, addressing the issue "Merge after URL Context is released."

Changes

Updated the course documentation to inform learners that GitHub Copilot can now use URL context to incorporate information from web pages and documentation into its code suggestions.

Files Modified

  • README.md - Enhanced the description of how Copilot draws context to include URL context capability
  • .github/steps/1-copilot-extension.md - Applied the same update for consistency across course materials

Before

The course only mentioned that Copilot "draws context from comments and code," which doesn't reflect the full capabilities of the current version.

After

The course now accurately describes that Copilot can draw context from:

  • Comments and code (existing)
  • URLs, web pages, and documentation (newly documented)

Impact

This is a minimal documentation update that:

  • ✅ Keeps learners informed about current Copilot capabilities
  • ✅ Maintains natural readability and flow of the existing content
  • ✅ Ensures consistency across all course materials
  • ✅ Makes no breaking changes to the course structure or activities

The URL Context feature is an important enhancement to GitHub Copilot that course participants should be aware of as they learn to use the tool effectively.
