ghcp-hosted-agents

What problem does it solve?

This Skill enables reliable deployment of long-running, streaming GitHub Copilot hosted agents on Foundry using BYOK authentication, avoiding gateway timeouts and enabling progressive discovery.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Invocations SSE Streaming: Uses Invocations protocol to stream events to the caller for workflows that exceed non-streaming response limits.
• BYOK Authentication on Foundry: Deploys hosted agents without requiring GITHUB_TOKEN by minting bearer tokens via DefaultAzureCredential.
• Tool-Loop Fit for Slow Workloads: Optimized for long tool loops (e.g., multi-site scraping or iterative scans) where streaming progress matters more than minimal orchestration latency.

Quick Start

Ask the AI agent runtime to deploy a hosted Foundry agent using the Invocations protocol with FOUNDRY_PROJECT_ENDPOINT and AZURE_AI_MODEL_DEPLOYMENT_NAME set for BYOK, and invoke it by POSTing JSON with an input string to the Invocations SSE endpoint.
