What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps you turn Copilot SDK ideas into deployable Azure applications without guessing the infrastructure, model configuration, or authentication pattern.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Scaffold new apps: Start a greenfield Copilot SDK service with the recommended Azure template, API, web UI, and deployment setup.
  • Integrate into existing repos: Add Copilot SDK capabilities to an existing application while preserving its current structure and server startup flow.
  • Deploy to Azure with BYOM support: Configure Azure hosting, model selection, managed identity, and Azure OpenAI or Azure AI Foundry endpoints for production use.
  • Use Case: A team wants to launch a chat app backed by GitHub Copilot SDK, then later switch to an Azure-hosted model with secure identity-based access.

Quick Start

Ask for help scaffolding, integrating, or deploying a Copilot SDK app on Azure and specify whether you are starting from scratch or working inside an existing repository.
