 * **{% data variables.copilot.copilot_coding_agent %} does not work in personal repositories owned by {% data variables.enterprise.prodname_managed_users %}**. This is because {% data variables.copilot.copilot_coding_agent %} requires {% data variables.product.company_short %}-hosted runners, which are not available to repositories owned by {% data variables.enterprise.prodname_managed_users %}. See [AUTOTITLE](/actions/using-github-hosted-runners/using-github-hosted-runners/about-github-hosted-runners).
 * **{% data variables.product.prodname_copilot_short %} doesn't account for content exclusions**. Content exclusions allow administrators to configure {% data variables.product.prodname_copilot_short %} to ignore certain files. When using {% data variables.copilot.copilot_coding_agent %}, {% data variables.product.prodname_copilot_short %} will not ignore these files, and will be able to see and update them. See [AUTOTITLE](/copilot/managing-copilot/configuring-and-auditing-content-exclusion/excluding-content-from-github-copilot).
 * **{% data variables.copilot.copilot_coding_agent %} only works with repositories hosted on {% data variables.product.github %}**. If your repository is stored using a different code hosting platform, {% data variables.product.prodname_copilot_short %} won't be able to work on it.
