Spec Kit for GitHub Copilot

Copilot-native integrations for Spec Kit across GitHub Copilot CLI, the Copilot App, and VS Code.

This repository hosts Copilot-specific integrations and Spec Kit components tailored for Copilot: CLI skills, App canvases, and future plugins, hooks, or workflow surfaces. Spec Kit remains agent-agnostic; this companion repository provides the first-class Copilot experience around it.

Status: active development.

[!NOTE] Experience visual, Copilot-interactive Spec Kit canvases

See how GitHub Copilot App’s canvas functionality turns Spec Kit workflows into visual, Copilot-interactive experiences: Spec Kit Assess: Visual Idea Intake with GitHub Copilot showcases the assess extension’s five-stage discovery funnel — intake, research, define, shape, and decide — helping teams turn rough concepts into a clear go, needs clarification, or kill decision before moving into SDD.

Spec Kit Wizard: Visual Spec-Driven Development with GitHub Copilot showcases a guided visual workflow for exploring, understanding, and running the full Spec-Driven Development lifecycle, plus discovering and applying customizations that tailor the workflow to your project.

Plugins

The plugins are independently installable and versioned. Install the core skills, the assessment canvas, the bug fix canvas, the spec-driven development canvas, the wizard canvas, or any combination.

Spec Kit presets

This repo also hosts Spec Kit presets maintained for the Copilot experience under spec-kit-presets/. These are not Copilot plugins — they are
