Topic #: 1
You have a GitHub Enterprise Cloud Organization that uses the GitHub Copilot coding agent.
Copilot creates a draft pull request for an assigned issue, and the pull request timeline shows Copilot started work.
After 70 minutes, the agent session log stops updating, and the pull request body status stops changing.
You need to restart the agent so that it continues the task from the issue context and produces new commits to the existing draft pull request.
What should you do?

Suggested Answer: C Vote an answer
To restart the background session and force the agent to resume its task, unassign the issue from GitHub Copilot and then reassign it to Copilot.
This specific operational cycle terminates the frozen cloud background process and launches a fresh agent session. Because a draft pull request already exists and is bound to the issue context, the newly initiated session automatically detects the linked branch, picks up the previous implementation plan, and begins pushing new commits directly to that existing draft PR.
