Copilot MCP Tool
Copilot MCP Tool is an open‑source Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that connects your IDE or AI assistant (Claude, Cursor, etc.) to GitHub Copilot CLI. It enables non‑interactive automation, safe tool execution with permissions, and large‑scale code analysis via @ file references. Built for reliability and speed, it streams progress updates, and integrates cleanly with standard MCP clients for code review, refactoring, documentation, and CI automation.
- Primary: Ask GitHub Copilot CLI questions from your MCP client, with comprehensive tool management
- Advanced: Batch processing, code review, and brainstorming capabilities
TLDR:
+ GitHub Copilot CLI
Goal: Use GitHub Copilot CLI directly from your MCP-enabled editor to analyze and edit code efficiently.
Prerequisites

- Node.js (v18.0.0 or higher)
