Connect Pinpoint to GitHub Copilot

Give GitHub Copilot governed access to Pinpoint through Runlayer, with identity, policy, scanning, and audit on every call.

Set up

Add Pinpoint 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 Pinpoint in Runlayer

    Add Pinpoint 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 Pinpoint’s tools through the plugin’s search and execute tools.

  3. 3

    Sign in to Pinpoint

    An admin adds Pinpoint credentials to Runlayer once. They never sit in the client’s configuration.

  4. 4

    Use Pinpoint from GitHub Copilot

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

Tools

Pinpoint tools in GitHub Copilot

Pinpoint reports its tools when your organization connects it, so the list depends on your deployment.

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 Pinpoint 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.
