GitHub Copilot Agent SDK, directly relevant to AI agent integration and platform engineering.
Summary
GitHub released a multi-language SDK for embedding Copilot CLI's agentic workflows into applications, supporting Python, TypeScript, Go, .NET, Java, and Rust. The SDK communicates via JSON-RPC and includes BYOK support for custom LLM providers (OpenAI, Azure, Anthropic) with billing on premium request quota, plus multiple authentication methods. It exposes Copilot's production-tested agent runtime for planning, tool invocation, and file edits, eliminating the need for custom orchestration.
