Use Copilot Spaces to provide project-specific context to conversations. Use this skill when users mention a "Copilot space", want to load context from a shared knowledge base, discover available spaces, or ask questions grounded in curated project documentation, code, and instructions.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Copilot Spaces
Use Copilot Spaces to bring curated, project-specific context into conversations. A Space is a shared collection of repositories, files, documentation, and instructions that grounds Copilot responses in your team's actual code and knowledge.
## Available Tools
### MCP Tools (Read-only)
| Tool | Purpose |
|------|---------|
| `mcp__github__list_copilot_spaces` | List all spaces accessible to the current user |
| `mcp__github__get_copilot_space` | Load a space's full context by owner and name |
### REST API via `gh api` (Full CRUD)
The Spaces REST API supports creating, updating, deleting spaces, and managing collaborators. The MCP server only exposes read operations, so use `gh api` for writes.
**User Spaces:**
| Method | Endpoint | Purpose |
|--------|----------|---------|
| `POST` | `/users/{username}/copilot-spaces` | Create a space |
| `GET` | `/users/{username}/copilot-spaces` | List spaces |
| `GET` | `/users/{username}/copilot-spaces/{number}` | Get a space |
| `PUT` | `/users/{username}/copilot-spaces/{number}` | Update a space |
| `DELETE` | `/users/{username}/copilot-spaces/{number}` | Delete a space |

How to install
mdr add github/awesome-copilot/copilot-spaces@sha256:6069534e09f04fefThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260305.13970c3, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
