GitHub Copilot CLI as optional zero-cost provider via copilot -p programmatic mode.
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
# GitHub Copilot Provider Skill ## Overview GitHub Copilot CLI (GA since Feb 2026) serves as an optional provider in the Claude Octopus multi-LLM ecosystem. Integration uses the official `copilot -p` programmatic mode, not reverse-engineered API endpoints. **Core principle:** Copilot supplements existing providers for research and exploration at zero additional cost (uses existing GitHub Copilot subscription). Each prompt counts as one premium request against your subscription quota. **Agent types:** `copilot` (general), `copilot-research` (research-focused) --- ## Detection ```bash # Check copilot CLI is available if ! command -v copilot &>/dev/null; then # Copilot CLI not installed — silently skip return 0 fi ``` **Graceful degradation:** When Copilot CLI is unavailable or unauthenticated, silently skip. Other providers continue to operate normally. --- ## Authentication Copilot CLI checks credentials in this precedence order: 1. `COPILOT_GITHUB_TOKEN` env var (highest priority — fine-grained PAT with "Copilot Requests" permission) 2. `GH_TOKEN` env var 3. `GITHUB_TOKEN` env var 4. OAuth token from system keychain (via `copilot login`) …

How to install
mdr add nyldn/claude-octopus/skill-copilot-provider@sha256:9f0d0e3e4adfad5dThe line at the top of this page pins the label v2.0.0, 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.
