Let's Learn GitHub Copilot SDK - .NET Edition

From the creator

Join this beginner-friendly livestream to learn how to build agentic applications with the GitHub Copilot SDK for .NET, without implementing the agent loop yourself. Unlike calling a model API directly, the SDK gives your application programmatic access to Copilot’s agent runtime, including conversation management, planning, tool orchestration, streaming events, and session state. During the session, we’ll explore clients, sessions, prompts, and the agent runtime. You’ll learn how to create multi-turn conversations, stream responses in real time, expose application functions as tools, connect external capabilities through MCP servers, and control agent behavior with hooks and permission handlers. We’ll also help you understand when to use the Copilot SDK instead of the interactive Copilot CLI: use the CLI for developer tasks in the terminal, and use the SDK when you want to embed Copilot’s agentic capabilities in your own application or service. No prior experience with the GitHub Copilot SDK is required. 📖 Chapters: 00:00 Welcome & Introductions 04:58 Poll: Have you used GitHub Copilot SDK? 07:21 Session Overview & Agenda 17:36 Intro to GitHub Copilot SDK (101) 22:27 Creating & Configuring Sessions 24:05 Setting Permissions & Handling Events 38:58 Demo: Podcast Metadata Generator 47:37 Workshop Overview: Museum Exhibit Studio 52:02 Hands-on: Building the Curator Agent 02:07 Setting System Messages & Guardrails 11:58 Tool Orchestration & Function Calling 26:29 Structural C
