Following our previous updates, GitHub Copilot for Eclipse is open source, with the code available on GitHub under the MIT license.
This marks an important milestone for GitHub Copilot in the Eclipse ecosystem. By open sourcing the plugin, we’re inviting the community to explore, learn from, and contribute to how AI-powered developer experiences are built inside Eclipse.
Our primary motivation is community-driven innovation and increased transparency. Eclipse has thrived for decades thanks to its open ecosystem, and we believe AI tooling should be developed in that same spirit (i.e., openly and alongside the IDE itself). Putting the Copilot for Eclipse source in the open lets developers see exactly how the plugin works, reason about what it does, and help shape where it goes next.
The GitHub Copilot for Eclipse repository is publicly available here: https://github.com/microsoft/copilot-for-eclipse
With the code now open, you can see exactly how Copilot works. Explore the implementation behind chat, code completions, and agentic workflows. Review system prompts, architectural decisions, and how context is handled. You can dig into the codebase and learn how Copilot for Eclipse is built end-to-end, including:
This is a partial list. There are additional features for you to discover in the codebase.
We welcome contributions and feedback from the community.
As with any open-source project, we’ll continue to evolve contribution guidelines and collaboration processes alongside the community.
Since open sourcing the project, we’ve already started to see contributions from the community. We’d like to thank contributors, including:
