This project provides development tools for creating GitHub Copilot extensions for Visual Studio Code.

From a command prompt or VS Code terminal window, create a new empty directory to hold your project. For example:

mkdir myagent
cd ./myagent

Launch the scaffolder from the npm package manager:

npm exec jonlester/vscode-copilot-dev

Once the project setup completes, launch VS Code with your new folder as the workspace:

code .

Try out your new chat agent by opening the VS Code debugging panel, and starting the "Run Extension" launch configuration:

A new VS Code window will launch, and after a moment you'll see your new agent available in Copilot Chat:

You can start customizing your chat agent by adding your code to the generated extension.ts file, located in the src folder.

Tip: Take a look at this chat agent sample to help get you started.
