GH-600 preparation should center on how GitHub Copilot agent workflows support software delivery. Verify the current skills measured and exam-delivery details with GitHub’s official GH-600 certification resources.
Review how an agent starts from a clear task, gathers context, plans changes, and moves from analysis into implementation. The exam can test whether the workflow needs clearer acceptance criteria, a planning step, a narrower task, or a review checkpoint.
Repository context matters because the agent must work inside existing code, tests, standards, and pull request practices. SDLC-aware answers usually preserve traceability, align with branch and review practices, and avoid bypassing team controls.
Custom instructions and custom agents help steer behavior for a repository or role. Study when instructions should encode coding style, testing expectations, security constraints, and project conventions rather than repeating a one-off prompt.
Tool access should match the task. A developer may allow inspection, test execution, or other tools when useful, but unnecessary tool access increases risk. Review why least privilege and approval checkpoints matter when agents can act on code.
Session persistence supports continuity across multi-step work. Review workflows should still inspect the generated changes, test results, security implications, and handoff notes before merging or assigning follow-up work.
Security questions may involve secret protection, untrusted content, prompt-injection risk, permissions, data boundaries, and human review. Responsible use means the developer remains accountable for what is accepted into the repository.
