Add GitHub Copilot LLM Backend Integration

[vhvb1989]

Overview

This PR adds GitHub Copilot as a new LLM backend for the Azure Developer CLI (azd) agent, enabling developers to use GitHub Copilot's language models for AI-assisted development workflows within azd.

Changes

Core Integration

• New GitHub Copilot Model Provider (pkg/llm/github_copilot.go): Complete implementation of GitHub Copilot as an LLM backend
• Authentication System: Implements GitHub OAuth device flow for seamless authentication
• Token Management: Automatic token caching and refresh for both GitHub access tokens and GitHub Copilot session tokens
• OpenAI API Compatibility: Leverages the existing OpenAI model structure from langchaingo since GitHub Copilot API follows the OpenAI specification

Authentication Flow

The implementation includes a complete OAuth device flow authentication system:

1. Device Code Flow: Initiates GitHub OAuth device authentication
2. GitHub Token Storage: Securely caches GitHub access tokens in user config directory
3. Copilot Token Exchange: Exchanges GitHub tokens for Copilot-specific session tokens
4. Automatic Refresh: Handles token expiration and re-authentication seamlessly

Technical Implementation Details

OpenAI API Reuse

We reuse the OpenAI model structure from langchaingo because:

• GitHub Copilot API is fully compatible with OpenAI's API specification
• This allows us to leverage existing, well-tested OpenAI client implementations
• Reduces code duplication and maintenance overhead
• Ensures consistent behavior across different LLM backends

Custom Headers for GitHub Copilot

The implementation applies specific headers required by GitHub Copilot:

// Custom HTTP client with GitHub Copilot specific headers
func (c *httpClient) Do(req *http.Request) (*http.Response, error) {
    req.Header.Set("copilot-integration-id", "vscode-chat")
    return http.DefaultClient.Do(req)
}

Key headers applied:

• copilot-integration-id: vscode-chat - Identifies the integration as VS Code chat for proper request routing
• Authorization: Bearer <copilot-token> - Uses the exchanged Copilot session token
• User-Agent: Azd/1.17.0 - Identifies azd as the requesting client

Token Management Strategy

• GitHub Token Cache: Stored at ~/.azd/gh-cp/gh (JSON format)
• Copilot Token Cache: Stored at ~/.azd/gh-cp/cp (JSON format with expiration)
• Automatic Expiration Handling: 5-minute buffer before expiration to ensure reliability
• Re-authentication Flow: Automatically triggers when tokens are expired or invalid

Integration Points

• Container Registration (cmd/container.go): Registers the new provider as "github-copilot"
• Agent Factory (internal/agent/agent_factory.go): Updates context handling for authentication
• Init Command (cmd/init.go): Enables GitHub Copilot for AI-assisted project initialization
• Model Factory (pkg/llm/model_factory.go): Adds context parameter for authentication flows
• Manager (pkg/llm/manager.go): Adds new LlmTypeGhCp constant and string representation

Security Considerations

• Tokens are stored with restricted file permissions (0600)
• Authentication uses official GitHub OAuth endpoints
• No sensitive data is logged or exposed
• Follows GitHub's approved client patterns

Benefits for azd Users

• Seamless Authentication: One-time GitHub login with automatic token management
• GitHub Ecosystem Integration: Natural fit for developers already using GitHub
• High-Quality Models: Access to GitHub Copilot's powerful language models
• Consistent Experience: Same interface as other LLM backends in azd

Resolves

Closes #5679 - Copilot integration

Testing

• Manual testing of authentication flow
• Token caching and refresh functionality verified
• Integration with existing azd agent workflows confirmed
• OpenAI API compatibility validated

Configuration Example

Users can configure GitHub Copilot as their default LLM backend:

azd config set ai.model.type github-copilot

The first time they use an AI-assisted command, they'll be prompted to authenticate with GitHub, after which tokens are automatically managed.
