Connect Pulumi to GitHub Copilot

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

Set up

Add Pulumi 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 Pulumi in Runlayer

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

  3. 3

    Sign in to Pulumi

    Sign in the way Pulumi requires. Runlayer holds the credentials so they stay out of the client’s configuration.

  4. 4

    Use Pulumi from GitHub Copilot

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

Tools

Pulumi tools in GitHub Copilot

Pulumi 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 Pulumi 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.
