Let's Learn GitHub Copilot SDK

Join this beginner-friendly livestream to learn how to build agentic applications with the GitHub Copilot SDK, without implementing the agent loop yourself. Unlike calling a model API directly, the SDK gives your application programmatic access to Copilot’s agent runtime, including conversation management, planning, tool orchestration, streaming events, and session state. During the session, we’ll explore clients, sessions, prompts, and the agent runtime. You’ll learn how to create multi-turn conversations, stream responses in real time, expose application functions as tools, connect external capabilities through MCP servers, and control agent behavior with hooks and permission handlers. We’ll also help you understand when to use the Copilot SDK instead of the interactive Copilot CLI: use the CLI for developer tasks in the terminal and use the SDK when you want to embed Copilot’s agentic capabilities in your own application or service. No prior experience with the GitHub Copilot SDK is required. Learn more by exploring the resources
