Connect Vantage to GitHub Copilot
Give GitHub Copilot governed access to Vantage’s 157 tools through Runlayer, with identity, policy, scanning, and audit on every call.
Set up
Add Vantage to GitHub Copilot in four steps
Admins approve the server once. Everyone in GitHub Copilot then gets it through the same governed connection.
- 1
Add Vantage to Runlayer
Vantage isn’t in the Runlayer catalog yet, so an admin adds it by its MCP server URL.
Adding a connector manually - 2
Connect GitHub Copilot to Runlayer
GitHub Copilot gets connector tools through the Runlayer Plugin, and reaches Vantage’s 157 tools through the plugin’s search and execute tools.

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 Vantage 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.
