# agentkernel for Copilot CLI

Use agentkernel as a sandbox backend for GitHub Copilot CLI via MCP.

## Setup

1. Install agentkernel:

```bash
brew tap thrashr888/agentkernel && brew install agentkernel
```

2. Install the MCP config into your project:

```bash
agentkernel plugin install copilot
```

This adds the agentkernel MCP server entry to your `.mcp.json`.

3. Start using agentkernel tools in Copilot CLI. The MCP server exposes:

| Tool | Description |
|------|-------------|
| `run_command` | Run a command in a temporary sandbox |
| `create_sandbox` | Create a persistent sandbox |
| `exec_in_sandbox` | Execute in an existing sandbox |
| `remove_sandbox` | Remove a sandbox |
| `list_sandboxes` | List all sandboxes |

## How It Works

The `agentkernel mcp-server` command starts a stdio-based MCP server that Copilot CLI connects to. All code execution is routed through agentkernel's microVM sandboxes.
