Hi @garak, thanks for opening this issue!

I've labeled this as an enhancement request. To help us better understand your needs, could you provide more details:

• Use case: What problem would a PHP SDK solve for you?
• Priority: Is this blocking any of your work?
• Specific features: Are there particular capabilities from the existing SDKs (.NET, Go, Node.js, Python) you'd need in PHP?

Any additional context about your requirements would help the team evaluate this request.

Use case

I work primarily in PHP-based backends (Symfony), and a PHP SDK would allow us to integrate Copilot features directly into existing server-side workflows:

• custom developer tools and internal CLIs
• IDE-agnostic code generation and review helpers
• domain-specific copilots embedded in SaaS products

Without a PHP SDK, we’d need to introduce a separate Node/Python service just to bridge the SDK, which adds operational and architectural overhead.

Priority

It’s not blocking all work today, but it is a meaningful limitation. PHP is still a major backend ecosystem, and the lack of SDK support makes Copilot harder to adopt for teams that are otherwise all-in on PHP.

Specific features

At minimum, parity with the core features of the existing SDKs would be ideal:

• auth and session handling
• chat / completion APIs
• tool / function calling
• streaming responses

extensibility hooks similar to Node/Python

Framework-specific helpers (Laravel/Symfony) could come later. A low-level, framework-agnostic SDK would already unlock a lot of use cases.

Can you share? Or is the work non-public?
