Use Copilot CLI to review your code changes directly from the terminal.

## About agentic code review

You can use the `/review` slash command to have Copilot analyze code changes without leaving the CLI. This lets you get quick feedback on your changes prior to committing.

1. Type `/review` and optionally specify a prompt, path, or file pattern to narrow the review scope, then press <kbd>Enter</kbd>.
2. If Copilot proposes running a command (for example, to inspect a diff or verify a file), review the command, then use the arrow keys to choose an option and press <kbd>Enter</kbd>.
   * Select **Yes** to run the command.
   * Select **No** to skip the command and tell Copilot what to do differently.
3. Read the feedback that Copilot provides about your changes and apply any suggested improvements in your code editor.
