  3. Choose to sign in and follow the GitHub authentication prompt in your browser.
  4. Once authorized, Copilot is ready in both inline suggestions and chat.

MCP servers​

GitHub Copilot can use the Datacoves MCP servers (GitHub, Airflow, Grafana, Snowflake) when they are enabled for your environment. The GitHub Copilot CLI gets the Snowflake server too.
