waken-copilot 0.1.0

GitHub Copilot Target adapter for Waken — routes waken Events to the copilot CLI.

waken-copilot

GitHub Copilot Target adapter for Waken — "nginx for AI agents." Routes a waken Event to the Copilot CLI (@github/copilot) and wraps its output back into a Response.

Status: less mature than its siblings — read this before using it

Unlike waken-claude (wraps claude_agent_sdk) and waken-gemini (wraps google-genai), GitHub does not publish a documented request/response HTTP SDK for third-party programmatic use of Copilot. The only real integration point is GitHub's own terminal coding agent, the copilot CLI — so this adapter shells out to it as a subprocess rather than calling an API. Two concrete consequences:

• Session resumption is unverified. This adapter tracks "has this waken session talked to copilot before" and passes the waken session_id back via --resume on later turns, but there is no confirmed mechanism for getting a real, provider-issued conversation id out of the CLI's output the way waken_claude gets one from the Claude Agent SDK. Treat multi-turn continuity through this adapter as unverified, not solved.
• No CI integration testing against the real CLI. copilot authenticates via an interactive OAuth device flow (or an existing gh auth login session) — there's no static API key to hand to CI the way ANTHROPIC_API_KEY/GEMINI_API_KEY work for its siblings. This package's test suite mocks asyncio.create_subprocess_exec entirely; no test here has ever run a real copilot process.

The CLI itself is also young and its flags move quickly — -p, --allow-all-tools, and --resume <id> are this adapter's best-known reading of copilot --help as of this writing, not a guarantee. Check copilot --help yourself before depending on this in production.

Install

pip install waken-copilot

Prerequisite: the copilot CLI must already be installed and authenticated on the machine running Waken — this adapter does not manage authentication itself.

npm install -g @github/copilot
copilot   # first run: interactive OAuth device-flow login
          # (or reuse an existing `gh auth login` session)

Usage

from waken import Runtime
from waken_copilot import CopilotAdapter

runtime = Runtime()
runtime.target("copilot", CopilotAdapter())
runtime.run()

waken send copilot "Build tic tac toe." --wait

Development

git clone https://github.com/WakenHQ/waken-copilot
cd waken-copilot
pip install -e ".[dev]"
pytest

Tests mock the copilot subprocess call — no copilot binary or network access is required to run them.
