Bridge Claude Code marketplace skills into GitHub Copilot.

Copilot Skill Bridge discovers skills from local Claude plugin caches and remote GitHub repositories, converts Claude-specific references into Copilot-compatible formats, and writes prompt files that GitHub Copilot can use directly. It also detects skills that rely on Claude-only infrastructure and marks them as incompatible so you only import what actually works.

Features

  • Skill Discovery -- Finds skills from your local Claude plugin cache and configurable remote GitHub marketplace repositories. Transitive dependency resolution follows marketplace dependencies and source.url redirects automatically via BFS with cycle detection. Search GitHub for new marketplaces directly from the command palette.
  • Progressive Loading -- Local plugins appear immediately in the sidebar. Remote plugins render incrementally as each marketplace completes fetching, with a spinner indicating progress. Parallel API calls within each repo keep load times fast.
  • Smart Conversion -- Applies 27 transformation rules to translate Claude-specific tool names, CLI commands, file paths, and conventions into Copilot equivalents. Converts claude mcp add, claude install, and claude plugin install commands. MCP tool references are preserved as-is.
  • Companion Files -- Skills with additional .md files alongside SKILL.md (e.g., visual criteria, code quality rules) are discovered and imported automatically. Cross-references in skill content are rewritten to point to the imported companion files.
  • Dependency Resolution -- When importing a skill, cross-plugin skill dependencies and MCP server requirements are detected and offered for auto-install. Bulk imports resolve dependencies across all selected sk
