🧠 Copilot Agent Bridge

Connect your Python AI agents to GitHub Copilot with a powerful local bridge inside VS Code


✨ Overview

Copilot Agent Bridge unlocks the full power of GitHub Copilot by allowing your external AI systems (like Python agents) to communicate with it via a local HTTP server.

Build advanced AI workflows, automate coding tasks, and create intelligent developer tools beyond the VS Code UI.

⚠️ Important Notes

💡 Keep in mind:

  • 📦 Model availability depends on your Copilot plan (Free, Pro, Pro+, Business, Enterprise)
  • 🖥️ Not all models appear in every environment (VS Code, CLI, GitHub, etc.)
  • 🔄 GitHub may update (add/remove) models over time

✨ Stay updated and choose the model that best fits your workflow! 🚀

📊 Real-Time Dashboard

Track:

  • Request latency
  • Token usage
  • Errors
  • Live activity

📁 Agent Management

Connect and manage multiple AI agent directories seamlessly.

🧪 Built-in Testing

Test prompts directly inside VS Code before integrating into your agent.

📜 Request Logging

Full request/response history with debugging support.

⚙️ Advanced Configuration

Customize:

  • Port & host
  • Timeout settings
  • Authentication tokens
  • Default AI model

🛠️ How It Works

Python Agent → HTTP Request → VS Code Extension → GitHub Copilot → Response → Agent
  1. Start the bridge server
  2. Send request from your AI agent
  3. Extension forwards it to Copilot
  4. Response is returned instantly

⚡ Quick Start

1️⃣ Start the Bridge

Ctrl + Shift + P → "Copilot Bridge: Start Bridge Server"

2️⃣ Configure Your Agent

COPILOT_BRIDGE_URL=http://127.0.0.1:8765

3️⃣ Send a Request

POST /chat
{
  "message": "Explain recursion simply"
}

🔌 Use Cases
