GitHub has announced that Copilot code review will begin consuming GitHub Actions minutes on private repositories from June 1, 2026, coinciding with the broader switch to usage-based AI Credits billing. Teams that use automated Copilot code review in their pull request workflows will need to account for this additional Actions minutes consumption starting on that date. This deadline extends the billing changes already previewed in early May and represents a concrete, time-bound action item for engineering teams. Organizations should audit their Copilot code review usage now, monitor projected Actions minutes consumption in the GitHub billing dashboard, and adjust budgets or plan limits accordingly before the June 1 cutover to avoid unexpected overages.
