Connect Salesforce DX to GitHub Copilot
Give GitHub Copilot governed access to Salesforce DX through Runlayer, with identity, policy, scanning, and audit on every call.
Set up
Add Salesforce DX to GitHub Copilot in four steps
Admins approve the server once. Everyone in GitHub Copilot then gets it through the same governed connection.
- 1
Approve Salesforce DX in Runlayer
Add Salesforce DX from the catalog and choose who can use it and which of its tools are allowed.
- 2
Connect GitHub Copilot to Runlayer
Install the Runlayer CLI so GitHub Copilot can reach Salesforce DX, which runs on the user’s machine.

Sign in to Salesforce DX
Sign in the way Salesforce DX requires. Runlayer holds the credentials so they stay out of the client’s configuration.
- 4
Use Salesforce DX from GitHub Copilot
Salesforce DX’s approved tools appear in GitHub Copilot. Every call is checked against policy and recorded.
Tools
Salesforce DX tools in GitHub Copilot
Salesforce DX 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 Salesforce DX 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.
