title: Copilot CLI
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
GitHub Copilot CLI is GitHub's AI coding agent for the terminal. It can understand your codebase, make edits, run commands, and help you build software faster.
|
|
|
|
Open models can be used with Copilot CLI through Ollama, enabling you to use models such as `qwen3.5`, `glm-5.1:cloud`, `kimi-k2.5:cloud`.
|
|
|
|
## Install
|
|
|
|
Install [Copilot CLI](https://github.com/features/copilot/cli/):
|
|
|
|
<CodeGroup>
|
|
|
|
```shell macOS / Linux (Homebrew)
|
|
brew install copilot-cli
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```shell npm (all platforms)
|
|
npm install -g @github/copilot
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```shell macOS / Linux (script)
|
|
curl -fsSL https://gh.io/copilot-install | bash
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```powershell Windows (WinGet)
|
|
winget install GitHub.Copilot
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
</CodeGroup>
|
|
|
|
## Usage with Ollama
|
|
|
|
### Quick setup
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
ollama launch copilot
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Run directly with a model
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
ollama launch copilot --model kimi-k2.5:cloud
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Recommended Models
|
|
|
|
- `kimi-k2.5:cloud`
|
|
- `glm-5:cloud`
|
|
- `minimax-m2.7:cloud`
|
|
- `qwen3.5:cloud`
|
|
- `glm-4.7-flash`
|
|
- `qwen3.5`
|
|
|
|
Cloud models are also available at [ollama.com/search?c=cloud](https://ollama.com/search?c=cloud).
|
|
|
|
## Non-interactive (headless) mode
|
|
|
|
Run Copilot CLI without interaction for use in Docker, CI/CD, or scripts:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
ollama launch copilot --model kimi-k2.5:cloud --yes -- -p "how does this repository work?"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The `--yes` flag auto-pulls the model, skips selectors, and requires `--model` to be specified. Arguments after `--` are passed directly to Copilot CLI.
|
|
|
|
## Manual setup
|
|
|
|
Copilot CLI connects to Ollama using the OpenAI-compatible API via environment variables.
|
|
|
|
1. Set the environment variables:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
export COPILOT_PROVIDER_BASE_URL=http://localhost:11434/v1
|
|
export COPILOT_PROVIDER_API_KEY=
|
|
export COPILOT_PROVIDER_WIRE_API=responses
|
|
export COPILOT_MODEL=qwen3.5
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
1. Run Copilot CLI:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
copilot
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Or run with environment variables inline:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
COPILOT_PROVIDER_BASE_URL=http://localhost:11434/v1 COPILOT_PROVIDER_API_KEY= COPILOT_PROVIDER_WIRE_API=responses COPILOT_MODEL=glm-5:cloud copilot
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Note:** Copilot requires a large context window. We recommend at least 64k tokens. See the [context length documentation](/context-length) for how to adjust context length in Ollama.
