GitHub Copilot CLI

Connect Copilot CLI to Divyam for file edits and shell commands.

Before you start

You need a Divyam account and an API key. If you don't have them yet, follow Getting Started first.

Replace the shortened divyam-sw-v1-... shown in examples with your complete API key.

The examples use divyam-as/gpt-6-sol. For another model, select its current ID in your harness or copy it from Models and pricing, and check its context limit and supported features.

1. Install GitHub Copilot CLI​

Follow the official installation instructions.

2. Set the provider and model​

divyam-as/

Model ID: divyam-as/gpt-6-sol. Context window: 1,050,000 tokens. Models and pricing

Export these settings in the same shell:

export COPILOT_PROVIDER_BASE_URL="https://api.preview.divyam.ai/v1"
export COPILOT_PROVIDER_API_KEY="divyam-sw-v1-..."
export COPILOT_PROVIDER_MODEL_ID="gpt-6-sol"
export COPILOT_PROVIDER_WIRE_MODEL="divyam-as/gpt-6-sol"
export COPILOT_PROVIDER_MAX_PROMPT_TOKENS=200000
export COPILOT_PROVIDER_MAX_OUTPUT_TOKENS=8192

The model profile is gpt-6-sol, while WIRE_MODEL is the ID sent to Divyam.

3. Send your first prompt​

Start Copilot from the shell where you set the provider:

copilot --excluded-tools apply_patch
In GitHub Copilot CLI's composer
Hello, what are your capabilities?
Paste this message, then send it.
Feature limits

The command excludes Copilot's grammar-based apply_patch tool. Copilot can edit files through its shell tool. MCP is outside this guide.

Check your requests​

Open the Divyam console and select Logs. Your requests appear there within a few seconds, newest first, with their status, token counts and latency. Usage and Credits & Billing catch up within a few minutes.

Local cost estimates

Some clients display zero when model prices are missing. Check Credits & Billing for Divyam charges. Local dollar limits depend on the client's price and usage data.

For filters, cached-token counts and the requested-versus-routed view, see Logs and usage.
