Dependabot pull requests are easy to review one at a time ... and tedious to review by the dozen.
Build a GitHub Copilot app automation that does the first pass for you. Once it reviews open Dependabot pull requests, groups them by risk, verifies CI status, it'll provide a short summary.
You write the instructions in plain language, so you can shape the automation to match how your team works. Schedule it before your workday starts and the results are ready when you log in.
