--- title: Copilot description: What's on the GitHub Copilot dashboard in Code Agents Intelligence, premium-request cost by model and SKU, feature and IDE usage, code impact, and repository attribution. url: https://coralogix.com/docs/user-guides/ai/code-agents/copilot/ product: ai feature: Code Agents feature_id: ai-center-code-agents feature_identifier: ai/ai-center-code-agents last_updated: '2026-09-27' --- # Copilot The Copilot dashboard has three tabs: **Activity**, **Cost**, and **Impact**. **Activity** holds **Key insights**, **Usage**, and **Users**. **Cost** holds the cost widgets. **Impact** holds **[Git Repos](#github-repos)**, and appears only when the GitHub Copilot collector is connected. Every figure is derived from Copilot's own usage data over the time range and filters you've set. Before the dashboard shows data, set up the integration. See [Set up GitHub Copilot](https://coralogix.com/docs/integrations/ai-observability/github-copilot-usage.md). ## Key insights A snapshot of Copilot activity across your org: models in use, active users, interactions, total cost, total tokens, the most-used feature, your power user, the top IDE, and the top programming language. [![Copilot Activity tab with Key insights above the Usage section](/docs/assets/images/activity-1c016ff7a00413defb5e8127b52dd935.webp)](https://coralogix.com/docs/assets/images/activity-1c016ff7a00413defb5e8127b52dd935.webp) ## Usage * **Active Users**, **CLI Sessions**, **CLI Active Users**, and **Cloud Agent Users**: how much Copilot is being used, and through which surface. * **Feature Usage**: which Copilot features drive that usage. * **IDE Usage**: where developers run Copilot. ## Code Impact * **PRs Created** and **PRs Merged**: what the work turned into. * **Suggestion Apply Rate**: the share of Copilot suggestions developers applied. * **Coding Language**: the languages they applied them in. [![Code Impact and the Users table on the Activity tab](/docs/assets/images/code-impact-users-9c05a70c6a1136e70c31fb8ceea0415b.webp)](https://coralogix.com/docs/assets/images/code-impact-users-9c05a70c6a1136e70c31fb8ceea0415b.webp) ## Users Active users ranked by interactions. The section header counts them, and each row carries **User**, **Tokens**, **CLI Sessions**, **Interactions**, **Lines of code**, **Models**, and **Repos**. Search the table, or select a row to drill into that user's session activity and code impact. ## Cost Built to answer one question: where is your Copilot spend going, and what's it buying you? The tab opens with **Insights**, ranked observations such as premium models dominating usage or spend landing on unmanaged repositories, each with an action that takes you to the widget behind it. * **Net Cost** and **Net Cost Over Time**: spend for the period, and how it trended. * **CLI Tokens** and **CLI Tokens Over Time**: token volume attributed to Copilot CLI usage. [![Cost tab with its insights, Net Cost, and CLI Tokens](/docs/assets/images/cost-3a75f4bb9a45ae78d458e31e6f271e7f.webp)](https://coralogix.com/docs/assets/images/cost-3a75f4bb9a45ae78d458e31e6f271e7f.webp) * **Requests by Model**: **Model**, **Premium Requests**, **%**, and **Tokens**. * **Most Expensive Users**: the same measures, per person. * **Cost by SKU**: spend split across your Copilot license tiers, such as `copilot_enterprise` and `copilot_business`. * **Input Tokens** and **Output Tokens**: totals for the period. Each table exports on its own. [![Requests by Model, Most Expensive Users, Cost by SKU, and the token totals](/docs/assets/images/cost-breakdown-fcd820d14af43409f3c6cad20a43cf35.webp)](https://coralogix.com/docs/assets/images/cost-breakdown-fcd820d14af43409f3c6cad20a43cf35.webp) **Most Expensive Sessions** lists the costliest sessions with **Started**, **User**, **Premium Requests**, **Git Repositories**, **Repo type**, **Model**, and **Session ID**. Search it or select **Export** to download it. Rows report `N/A` where a session did not carry that attribute. [![Most Expensive Sessions with its per-session repository and model attribution](/docs/assets/images/expensive-sessions-354005668ce816d11baa70129d4ef530.webp)](https://coralogix.com/docs/assets/images/expensive-sessions-354005668ce816d11baa70129d4ef530.webp) ## Git Repos The **Git Repos** section attributes each Copilot CLI session's token usage to the repository it touched, then splits that activity between **Managed** repositories (those owned by an Organization you configure in **Settings → AI Center → Code agent**) and **Unmanaged** ones: personal projects, external clones, or private work running on the company's Copilot license. The built-in OpenTelemetry in Copilot CLI reports the repository per session on the `github.copilot.git.repository` attribute. For how that attribute is read and classified, see [Repository breakdown](https://coralogix.com/docs/integrations/ai-observability/github-copilot-usage.md#repository-breakdown). [![Git Repos with the token distribution, the Managed against Unmanaged split, and top users on unmanaged repos](/docs/assets/images/git-repos-69ac81cc0a8abf1148c4b4f56f98ccc1.webp)](https://coralogix.com/docs/assets/images/git-repos-69ac81cc0a8abf1148c4b4f56f98ccc1.webp) ### Widgets #### Repository Token Distribution A ranked bar chart of token share by repository, each bar colored **Managed** or **Unmanaged**. #### Managed vs Unmanaged The split of total tokens between **Managed** repositories and **Unmanaged** ones, those owned by no configured Organization. Until you configure an Organization, every repository appears as Unmanaged. #### Top Users on Unmanaged Repositories A ranked table of the users with the most activity on Unmanaged repos, with **User ID**, **Premium Requests**, **Sessions**, **Tokens**, **Repos**, **Models**, and the share of that user's total. Select **Export to CSV** to download it. ### What you need * **[CLI session telemetry (Copilot CLI)](https://coralogix.com/docs/integrations/ai-observability/github-copilot-usage.md#cli-session-telemetry-copilot-cli)**: feeds per-session tokens, premium requests, and the `github.copilot.git.repository` attribute that ties activity to a repository. * **[Repository Organizations](https://coralogix.com/docs/user-guides/ai/code-agents/repository-breakdown.md#classify-repositories)**: split attributed activity into Managed and Unmanaged buckets based on the Organizations you configure in **Settings → AI Center → Code agent**. Until you configure an Organization, every repository appears as Unmanaged. ## Alert examples Example alerts you can build on Copilot's metrics to catch cost, adoption, and governance issues early. Each one expands to show what it detects and the query to use. Most of these are also available as ready-to-deploy alerts in the [Code Agents alerts](https://coralogix.com/docs/user-guides/ai/code-agents/alerts.md) extension. Single user CLI token concentration Alerts when one user accounts for more than 60% of total CLI prompt tokens, a sign that heavy automated CLI jobs from one developer are crowding out org capacity. ``` sum by (user_email) ( increase(github_copilot_user_cli_prompt_tokens_sum[1h]) ) / on() group_left() ( sum(increase(github_copilot_user_cli_prompt_tokens_sum[1h])) + 1 ) ``` Org-wide code acceptance rate drop Alerts when accepted suggestions as a share of total generated suggestions drops below 20%. Developers are rejecting most of Copilot's output, which can signal prompt-quality or model-alignment issues. ``` sum(increase(github_copilot_org_code_acceptance_activity_count[24h])) / (sum(increase(github_copilot_org_code_generation_activity_count[24h])) + 1) ``` Zero daily active users Alerts when no users are active for the current day, a sign of a complete outage, auth failure, or connectivity issue. ``` sum(github_copilot_org_daily_active_users{}) == 0 ``` Unused licensed seats (wasted spend) Alerts when billed seats exceed monthly active users by more than 20 (adjustable). Every unused seat is avoidable spend. ``` sum(github_copilot_billing_net_quantity) - sum(github_copilot_org_monthly_active_users) ``` Billing net amount spike Alerts when Copilot net billing increases more than 30% compared to 7 days ago, a sign of unexpected seat additions or SKU upgrades before the monthly invoice. ``` sum(github_copilot_billing_net_amount) / sum(github_copilot_billing_net_amount offset 7d) ``` New or unapproved model detected (7-day offset) Alerts when a Copilot interaction is recorded against a model that wasn't present over the previous 7 days. The alert surfaces the exact model name so leadership can assess whether it's sanctioned and act accordingly. ``` count by (model) ( github_copilot_user_user_initiated_interaction_count_by_model_feature ) unless count by (model) ( github_copilot_user_user_initiated_interaction_count_by_model_feature offset 7d ) ```
