From ee9df36f9dbed244fc1161fcec28aab329db7b9c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Steve Sanderson Date: Tue, 17 Feb 2026 11:23:43 +0000 Subject: [PATCH 01/18] Add minimal chat samples for all SDK languages - Add samples/chat.ts for Node.js/TypeScript - Add samples/chat.py for Python - Add samples/chat.go for Go - Add samples/Chat.cs for .NET - Update each SDK README with instructions to run the sample Each sample is a minimal (~30-50 lines) interactive chat loop that: - Prompts user for input - Sends to Copilot and waits for idle - Streams response deltas to console Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> --- dotnet/GitHub.Copilot.SDK.slnx | 3 ++ dotnet/README.md | 9 +++++ dotnet/samples/Chat.cs | 30 +++++++++++++++ dotnet/samples/Chat.csproj | 11 ++++++ go/README.md | 9 +++++ go/samples/chat.go | 70 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ go/samples/go.mod | 9 +++++ go/samples/go.sum | 4 ++ nodejs/README.md | 10 +++++ nodejs/samples/chat.ts | 33 ++++++++++++++++ nodejs/samples/package.json | 14 +++++++ python/README.md | 9 +++++ python/samples/chat.py | 40 +++++++++++++++++++ 13 files changed, 251 insertions(+) create mode 100644 dotnet/samples/Chat.cs create mode 100644 dotnet/samples/Chat.csproj create mode 100644 go/samples/chat.go create mode 100644 go/samples/go.mod create mode 100644 go/samples/go.sum create mode 100644 nodejs/samples/chat.ts create mode 100644 nodejs/samples/package.json create mode 100644 python/samples/chat.py diff --git a/dotnet/GitHub.Copilot.SDK.slnx b/dotnet/GitHub.Copilot.SDK.slnx index 1b82fb55..96fc3f0d 100644 --- a/dotnet/GitHub.Copilot.SDK.slnx +++ b/dotnet/GitHub.Copilot.SDK.slnx @@ -10,4 +10,7 @@ + + + diff --git a/dotnet/README.md b/dotnet/README.md index d78e7a6b..bda10059 100644 --- a/dotnet/README.md +++ b/dotnet/README.md @@ -10,6 +10,15 @@ SDK for programmatic control of GitHub Copilot CLI. dotnet add package GitHub.Copilot.SDK ``` +## Run the Sample + +Try the interactive chat sample (from the repo root): + +```bash +cd dotnet/samples +dotnet run +``` + ## Quick Start ```csharp diff --git a/dotnet/samples/Chat.cs b/dotnet/samples/Chat.cs new file mode 100644 index 00000000..6b1e4a5f --- /dev/null +++ b/dotnet/samples/Chat.cs @@ -0,0 +1,30 @@ +using GitHub.Copilot.SDK;
