copilot-delegate

Delegate a coding task to the GitHub Copilot CLI (copilot) as a background implementer, then review its diff and land it yourself. Use this whenever the user wants to delegate implementation work to Copilot — phrasings like "have Copilot implement X", "delegate this to copilot", "run it through Copilot CLI", or "use copilot to implement/fix/refactor" — or wants to run a queue of coding tasks through Copilot while…

A Claude Code skill that delegates bounded coding tasks to the GitHub Copilot CLI as a background implementer via a bundled bash relay, then lets the orchestrating agent review the resulting diff and commit it. It includes a five-step loop (brief, dispatch, wait, review, land) with reference docs for brief writing, dispatch/polling, multi-task queues, and landing work.

You want Copilot doing the implementation while you or your agent remain the reviewer who verifies gates and lands the commit.

Use it to

  • Delegate 'have Copilot implement X' style requests to the Copilot CLI
  • Run a queue of coding tasks through Copilot in the background
  • Review Copilot's diff against a written brief before committing
  • Adjust Copilot model and reasoning effort per task
  • Detect headless tool-permission denials via relay status

For Claude Code users with the Copilot CLI installed who want delegation, not inline work
