SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

The Copilot SDK enables developers to build agentic applications by embedding Copilot's runtime into their software.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Custom Tools: Define and integrate tools to extend Copilot's reasoning within your app.
  • Streaming & Sessions: Enable streaming responses and manage long-running sessions across platforms.
  • MCP Integration: Connect to MCP servers to access pre-built tools and repositories.

Quick Start

Install the GitHub Copilot CLI, install the Copilot SDK for your language (Node.js, Python, Go, or .NET), then create a session and start streaming responses to see Copilot in action.

FAQPage Schema
How do I embed AI agents into my application using an SDK?▼

The Copilot SDK enables developers to embed AI agents into applications by integrating Copilot's runtime. It supports custom tools, streaming responses, session management, and MCP server integrations across Node.js, Python, Go, and .NET.

Can I use the Copilot SDK with Python and Go to stream responses?▼

Yes, the Copilot SDK supports streaming responses and session management across Node.js 18+, Python 3.8+, Go 1.21+, and .NET 8.0+. You select a language runtime and use the SDK APIs to manage long-running sessions and stream output.

What do I need to install before building agentic applications with the Copilot runtime?▼

Before building agentic applications, you need to install the GitHub Copilot CLI and select a compatible language runtime such as Node.js 18+, Python 3.8+, Go 1.21+, or .NET 8.0+ to meet the SDK's technical requirements.

How does MCP server integration work with an AI agent SDK?▼

MCP server integration works by connecting the Copilot SDK to external MCP servers, allowing your application to access pre-built tools and repositories. This extends the agent's reasoning capabilities without requiring custom tool development.

How do I define custom tools for an AI agent in my software?▼

You define custom tools using the Copilot SDK's tooling APIs to integrate specific functions into Copilot's reasoning within your app. This allows the embedded agent to execute custom logic and interact with your software's internal workflows.

What is the best way to manage long-running sessions for streaming AI responses?▼

The best way to manage long-running sessions for streaming AI responses is using the Copilot SDK's session management APIs. These APIs handle streaming responses and maintain state across platforms like Node.js, Python, Go, and .NET.
