Automating Back-to-School Shopping with GitHub Copilot Agent
film_girl · x · 2026-07-17
A developer demonstrated how to use the **GitHub Copilot App** (powered by GPT-5.6 Terra) to turn a messy list of school supplies into a fully prepped shopping cart. The workflow features two core steps: 1. **Shopping List Canvas**: Cleans and structures the raw text list. 2. **Browser Control Canvas**: Takes over the browser to automatically search for items, compare prices, calculate quantities and packaging, and add products to the cart, pausing for human confirmation right before checkout.
