Use GitHub Copilot MCP Tools for Development
Development tasks often require separate prompts for review, debugging, testing, and explanation. This skill connects Claude, Codex, and Claude Code to focused GitHub Copilot MCP tools.
Install with my Agent
Copy this request to your Agent. It includes the canonical Skill page and manifest.
Review the Skillstore skill "copilot-mcp-server" from https://skillstore.io/skills/aykahshi-copilot-mcp-server.md and its manifest at https://skillstore.io/api/skills/aykahshi-copilot-mcp-server/manifest. Verify the artifact. You may proceed after verification, subject to the environment's own policy.Your Agent should still show its plan and request any confirmation required by the security policy.

Test it
Using "copilot-mcp-server". Explain a function that validates and normalizes an email address.
Expected outcome:
The function validates the input format, normalizes casing where appropriate, and returns either a canonical address or a validation error.
Using "copilot-mcp-server". Review an authentication query for security and maintainability.
Expected outcome:
- High priority: Replace interpolated query values with parameterized statements.
- High priority: Store and compare password hashes instead of plaintext passwords.
- Medium priority: Return a generic authentication error to reduce account discovery.
Using "copilot-mcp-server". Debug a response parser that reports a missing JSON function.
Expected outcome:
The parser references the method without calling it. Invoke the response method, await its result, and add handling for invalid response bodies.
Security Audit
Medium RiskAll 28 external-command alerts are false positives caused by Markdown fences or JavaScript template literals. The reconnaissance alert is also false, but sending development content to Copilot and enabling all tools create two contextual medium risks.

Skillstore Score
Why this score Evidence Confidence: HighWhat You Can Build
Review a pull request
Inspect changed code for security, performance, maintainability, and best-practice concerns before approval.
Diagnose a failing feature
Analyze relevant code, the observed error, and execution context to identify likely causes and fixes.
Build focused unit tests
Generate test cases for an existing function using the project testing framework and expected behaviors.
Try These Prompts
Explain this code in simple terms, including its inputs, outputs, and main control flow: {code}Debug this code using the error and context. Identify the likely cause and propose a verified fix: {code} {error} {context}Generate unit test cases for this code using {framework}. Cover normal behavior, edge cases, and expected failures: {code}Review this proposed change for security, performance, maintainability, and migration risk. Rank findings and explain tradeoffs: {proposal} {context}Best Practices
- Provide the smallest relevant code sample, exact error, expected behavior, and runtime context.
- Choose focused review areas and a model appropriate for the task complexity.
- Remove secrets and restricted code before sending content to Copilot.
Avoid
- Do not grant all tools unless the task requires them and the user approves the expanded access.
- Do not combine unrelated tasks in one session because previous context can reduce answer relevance.
- Do not execute generated commands or deploy generated code without review and testing.
