GitHub Copilot

GitHub Copilot support is experimental, using .github/copilot-instructions.md together with prompt files under .github/prompts/ to guide Copilot through KnowzCode workflows. While not as deeply integrated as CLI platforms, it brings structured development to Copilot users.

How it works

KnowzCode generates a .github/copilot-instructions.md file with structured prompts for Copilot Chat. Users initiate workflows through chat commands that reference the instruction file. Copilot follows the structured phases within the chat context. WorkGroup files are generated for session continuity. MCP integration depends on Copilot's evolving MCP support.

Current limitations

Copilot's chat-based interface limits the depth of multi-agent orchestration compared to CLI platforms. Autonomous mode is not fully supported since Copilot requires user interaction at each step. Agent specialization is implemented through prompt switching rather than true subagents. MCP integration is evolving as Copilot adds more extensibility features.
