# Extend GitHub Copilot with the Copilot SDK | LIVE151

**[Microsoft Developer](https://daily.dev/sources/microsoftdeveloper)** · 15 min read · 1 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

GitHub's Copilot SDK has reached 1.0 stable (GA), enabling developers to embed the GitHub Copilot CLI agent into custom applications. The SDK supports six languages including recently added Rust and Java. A live demo showcases a personal productivity app ('Whim') built with the SDK, featuring canvas-based writing, multi-agent orchestration, ephemeral cloud sandboxes, and local MXC sandboxes. The team is also rewriting the SDK runtime from Node.js to Rust, targeting a reduction from ~120MB to under 10MB RAM. The session encourages developers to build their own personal agents using the SDK rather than relying on off-the-shelf solutions.
