GitHub Copilot

Add an Anyray model to VS Code Chat, route the copilot CLI, and import native usage. Native Copilot keeps working.

VS Code

1

Allow third-party providers (Business and Enterprise)

GitHub org settings → Copilot → policies, before developers run Connect, or the models never reach the picker.

2

Use VS Code 1.121+

3

Enroll and run Connect

curl -fsSL https://app.anyray.ai/connect.sh | sh -s -- \
  --enroll https://app.anyray.ai/enroll/enl_… --tools copilot

Already enrolled, or ANYRAY_CLIENT_KEY set:

npx anyray-connect@latest --gateway https://gateway.example.com --tools copilot

Add --subscription to bill your Copilot seat instead of the gateway's provider key. The ark_… key lives in VS Code SecretStorage; without a valid one, Connect changes nothing.

4

Pick an Anyray model

Select an Anyray · … model in Chat. In agent mode, enable the Anyray MCP tools under Select Tools.

5

Restart VS Code once (subscription seat)

A reload does not pick up the Agents window setting. --quit-apps restarts for you.

	Subscription mode	API-key mode
Chat optimization	Yes, on Anyray models	Yes, on Anyray models
Who serves and bills	GitHub, on your Copilot seat	The gateway's provider key
Gateway inference spend	None recorded	Recorded and attributed
anyray_retrieve in agent mode	Yes	No. Text-only, so it stays out of the Agents window
Native usage visibility	The GitHub connector, Business and Enterprise only	Not applicable

Remote-SSH, Dev Containers, Codespaces: remote windows.

Copilot CLI

The copilot CLI (@github/copilot) routes through GitHub's env-only BYOK.

1

Quit VS Code fully

An open editor keeps the old environment and talks straight to GitHub, with no error.

2

Run Connect

npx anyray-connect@latest --tools copilot-cli

On macOS the explicit flag lets Connect read a Keychain /login; elsewhere plain npx anyray-connect@latest covers it. It writes ~/.copilot/mcp-config.json and, on macOS and Linux, a shell-profile block reading ~/.anyray/copilot-cli.sh (0600).

3

Open a new terminal

On Windows, also restart its parent app (Windows Terminal or VS Code).

4

Verify

anyray-connect doctor --json: copilot-cli shows pointedAt: true and MCP registered.

Lane	When	Billing
Seat (default)	Connect can read a Copilot sign-in (sources)	Your Copilot plan. A seat with an unreadable sign-in stays on native GitHub inference, never org billing
Org (--org)	You pass --org, or the machine has no Copilot seat	Org API usage, no Copilot premium requests. The machine stays on this lane

Connect reports no current models

A CLI /login token can 400 on current models. Run anyray-connect copilot-login once, then anyray-connect --tools copilot-cli. Measured numbers.

`/logout` does not stop Anyray routing

Run anyray-connect --tools copilot-cli --revert and restart the terminal. It also removes the sign-in copilot-login minted.

Models, Windows, revert: Copilot reference.

Import native Copilot usage

Business and Enterprise: enable the GitHub connector under Settings → Providers with a read-only metrics token (which permission).

Zero-touch fleets

With a fleet bootstrap file, the extension shows an Open sign-in notification with a code and configures itself after enrollment.

Revert

npx anyray-connect@latest --tools copilot --revert

Then restart VS Code fully.
