What is it?

Awesome GitHub Copilot is a community-maintained collection of resources for customizing GitHub Copilot. It groups contributed custom agents, coding instructions, skills, hooks, workflows, and plugins into browsable categories, so developers can find ready-made configurations instead of writing their own from scratch.

The repository is organized by resource type. Agents are specialized Copilot personas that can integrate with MCP servers, instructions are coding standards applied automatically by file pattern, and skills are self-contained folders with instructions and bundled assets. Plugins bundle agents and skills for specific workflows and can be installed through the Copilot CLI or VS Code using the awesome-copilot marketplace. A cookbook section offers copy-paste recipes for working with Copilot APIs.

The contents come from third-party contributors, and the maintainers ask users to review any agent and its documentation before installing it. A companion website provides search, filtering, and a Learning Hub with guides on agents, skills, hooks, and the Copilot coding agent.
