About this tag
The code scanning tag on WindowsForum.com follows how development and security teams handle automated vulnerability detection and remediation, especially where Microsoft and GitHub tooling intersect. Recent discussion centers on GitHub Copilot's agentic autofix, which reads and writes Copilot Memory to resolve code scanning alerts, storing fix patterns so later security fixes, code reviews, and cloud-agent tasks in the same repository benefit from earlier work. Both capabilities remain in public preview. Coverage suits developers, DevOps engineers, and security-minded administrators evaluating AI-assisted remediation workflows, weighing what persistent memory means for consistency, review burden, and trust in automated fixes across a codebase.
