GitHub Copilot Desktop (Beta)
Route local GitHub Copilot desktop sessions through Edgee on macOS.
Use the GitHub Copilot desktop app with your existing Copilot subscription. This launch target supports macOS only and covers local sessions. Remote sessions are outside its scope.
Connect through Edgee
Install the Edgee CLI
curl -fsSL https://edgee.ai/install.sh | bash
# Accept the alias prompt (recommended).
# If skipped: edgee alias
# Reopen your terminal afterward.
Launch GitHub Copilot Desktop through Edgee
Open GitHub Copilot (Edgee) from your app menu. See desktop shortcuts for availability on your platform.
Edgee starts sign-in automatically if needed. Follow the prompts and select your organization when asked.
Start a local coding session. Usage is grouped under Copilot in Edgee. Edgee plugin delivery is not supported for this app.
Verify the connection
Send a request, then open Logs in the same Edgee organization. Check its model, provider, and usage. Open Sessions to inspect the coding session.
If requests are missing, confirm you launched through Edgee and used the supported surface described above. For desktop apps, close any existing instance and relaunch through Edgee. See Troubleshooting.
