System Documentation

What problem does it solve?

Transfer Copilot context and session state between VS Code and the Copilot CLI within the same workflow, so you don't lose track when moving from editor to terminal.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Context handoff between IDE and CLI to preserve ongoing conversations and model state across environments.
  • Flexible switching patterns for CLI-first or IDE-first workflows to streamline batch automation, debugging, and multi-file edits.
  • Unified Copilot subscription experience and cross-environment MCP workflow to maintain continuity of tools and data.

Quick Start

Switch to Copilot CLI for automated tasks, then return to VS Code to continue with preserved context.
