GitHub Octoverse 2026: agents drafted over 40% of pull requests in September, up from 17% in March

Published Oct 28, the report counts about 110 million agent-started PRs in September (roughly 6x March), with 90% of agent-involved PRs merging within two weeks versus about 86% for the rest; GitHub calls its agent count a floor since it only sees detectable agent activity. New repos with an agent config file averaged eight times the commits of those without one (Octoverse).
