# GitHub Copilot SDK Build applications that programmatically interact with GitHub Copilot. The SDK wraps the Copilot CLI via JSON-RPC, providing session management, custom tools, hooks, MCP server integration, and streaming across Node.js, Python, Go, and .NET. ## Prerequisites - **GitHub Copilot CLI** installed and authenticated (`copilot --version` to verify) - **GitHub Copilot subscription** (Individual, Business, or Enterprise) — not required for BYOK - **Runtime:** Node.js 18+ / Python 3.8+ / Go 1.21+ / .NET 8.0+ ## Installation | Language | Package | Install | |----------|---------|---------| | Node.js | `@github/copilot-sdk` | `npm install @github/copilot-sdk` | | Python | `github-copilot-sdk` | `pip install github-copilot-sdk` | | Go | `github.com/github/copilot-sdk/go` | `go get github.com/github/copilot-sdk/go` | | .NET | `GitHub.Copilot.SDK` | `dotnet add package GitHub.Copilot.SDK` | --- ## Core Pattern: Client → Session → Message All SDK usage follows this pattern: create a client, create a session, send messages. ### Node.js / TypeScript ```typescript import { CopilotClient } from "@github/copilot-sdk"; const client = new CopilotClient(); const session = await client.createSession({ model: "gpt-4.1" }); const response = await session.sendAndWait({ prompt: "What is 2 + 2?" }); console.log(response?.data.content); await client.stop(); ``` ### Python ```python import asyncio from copilot import CopilotClient async def main(): client = CopilotCl...
