Connect Guru to GitHub Copilot

Give GitHub Copilot governed access to Guru’s 6 tools through Runlayer, with identity, policy, scanning, and audit on every call.

Set up

Add Guru to GitHub Copilot in four steps

Admins approve the server once. Everyone in GitHub Copilot then gets it through the same governed connection.

  1. 1

    Approve Guru in Runlayer

    Add Guru from the catalog and choose who can use it and which of its tools are allowed.

  2. 2

    Connect GitHub Copilot to Runlayer

    GitHub Copilot gets connector tools through the Runlayer Plugin, and reaches Guru’s 6 tools through the plugin’s search and execute tools.

  3. 3

    Sign in to Guru

    Each user signs in to Guru with OAuth. Runlayer keeps the tokens out of the client’s configuration.

  4. 4

    Use Guru from GitHub Copilot

    Guru’s approved tools appear in GitHub Copilot. Every call is checked against policy and recorded.

Control

What Runlayer can see and stop in GitHub Copilot

Some controls apply to every client at the gateway. Others depend on what GitHub Copilot exposes to Runlayer.

  • Gateway policy (available)

    Every Guru call from GitHub Copilot passes through Runlayer, where your policies can allow, alert, mask, or block it.

  • Audit trail (available)

    Each call is recorded with the user, GitHub Copilot as the client, the tool, and the policy and scanner decisions.

  • Native enforcement adapter (not available)

    Runlayer has no device-side adapter for GitHub Copilot yet, so control happens at the gateway.
