Can I define my own tools for the agents?

Absolutely. This skill provides specific guidance on defining custom tools using Zod for TypeScript and Pydantic for Python to extend your agent's functionality.

What is the relationship between the SDK and the Copilot CLI?

The SDK acts as a client that communicates with the GitHub Copilot CLI running in server mode via JSON-RPC, managing its lifecycle automatically.

Which programming languages does this skill support?

The GitHub Copilot SDK skill provides comprehensive documentation and implementation patterns for TypeScript/Node.js, Python, Go, and .NET.

Do I need a GitHub Copilot subscription to use this skill?

Yes, using the underlying SDK requires an active GitHub Copilot subscription (Pro, Business, or Enterprise) and the Copilot CLI installed on your machine.

Does this skill help with streaming responses?

Yes, it covers the event-driven architecture of the SDK, explaining how to handle both standard and streaming (delta) content via the assistant message event system.
