github/awesome-copilot
Community-contributed instructions, agents, skills, and configurations to help you make the most of GitHub Copilot.
Awesome GitHub Copilot is a community-built collection of ready-made customizations for GitHub Copilot. It gathers agents, instructions, skills, hooks, workflows, and plugins — all contributed by developers — so you can find and install them in one place instead of hunting around.
What's inside (from the README):
| Resource | What it is |
|---|---|
| Agents | Specialized Copilot agents that integrate with MCP servers. |
| Instructions | Coding standards that Copilot applies automatically based on file pattern. |
| Skills | Self-contained folders with instructions plus bundled assets. |
| Plugins | Curated bundles of agents and skills for specific workflows. |
| Cookbook | Copy-paste-ready recipes for working with Copilot APIs. |
How to use it
Most users already have the Awesome Copilot marketplace registered in Copilot CLI or VS Code. You install a plugin directly:
copilot plugin install <plugin-name>@awesome-copilot
If you're on an older Copilot CLI version (or a custom setup) and get an “unknown marketplace” error, register it once first:
copilot plugin marketplace add github/awesome-copilot
copilot plugin install <plugin-name>@awesome-copilot

Contributing & safety

Who built it — The project lists dozens of contributors (about 70 named in the README), making clear it's a community effort rather than a single-vendor project.
