# GitHub Copilot and EdgeSpark

> Set up GitHub Copilot with EdgeSpark — install the EdgeSpark Copilot plugin, generate AGENTS.md, and follow the public Copilot workflow.

GitHub Copilot uses the dedicated EdgeSpark Copilot plugin with `AGENTS.md` as the project instructions file.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Install the EdgeSpark CLI">
    ```bash theme={null}
    npm install -g @edgespark/cli
    edgespark login
    ```

    This installs the CLI globally and authenticates your account. Your credentials are stored locally and reused for all subsequent commands.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Install the EdgeSpark GitHub Copilot plugin">
    ```bash theme={null}
    copilot plugin marketplace add edgesparkhq/copilot-plugins
    copilot plugin install edgespark@edgespark-copilot-plugins
    ```

    This is the current public GitHub Copilot onboarding flow exposed by EdgeSpark.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Initialize your project">
    ```bash theme={null}
    edgespark init my-app --agent copilot
    cd my-app
    ```

    `--agent copilot` currently scaffolds `AGENTS.md`. That gives GitHub Copilot the EdgeSpark-specific project rules and workflow context.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Start an EdgeSpark task">
    In GitHub Copilot, use the EdgeSpark task-entry command:

    ```text theme={null}
    /edgespark:building-edgespark-apps
    ```
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Extending AGENTS.md

Add project-specific rules below the generated content:

```markdown theme={null}
<!-- Generated content above — do not edit -->

## Project-specific rules

- The `posts` table is soft-deleted — always filter `WHERE deleted_at IS NULL`
- Route `/api/admin/*` requires `user.role === 'admin'` checked after platform auth
```

GitHub Copilot should follow these additions with the same priority as the generated content. See [AGENTS.md reference](/agents/agents-md) for the full format.
