GitHub Copilot

GitHub Copilot Chat in VS Code can bring your own key. Depaza connects through its Custom Endpoint provider.

Depaza API key
Model

Your key stays in this browser (local storage) and is sent only to depaza.eu. Every config block on this page fills in automatically. Don’t do this on a shared machine.

Inline code completions stay on Copilot’s own models. Agent mode on a BYOK model needs the experimental chat.agentHost.byokModels.enabled setting. Models must support tool calling to appear in the agent-mode picker — Depaza’s do.

Configure

  1. Run Chat: Manage Language Models from the command palette, or click the gear icon in the chat model picker.
  2. Choose Add Models → Custom Endpoint, and set the API type to Chat Completions.
  3. Fill in the fields below, then pick the model from the Copilot Chat picker.
Copilot custom endpoint
Endpoint URL:  {{BASE_URL}}
API Key:       {{KEY}}
Model ID:      {{MODEL}}
