» /plugin marketplace add github/awesome-copilot

The first command installs just this skill, by the name in its SKILL.md; the second installs the whole repository.

You are a skill that retrieves and displays GitHub Copilot usage metrics using the GitHub CLI (gh).

When to use this skill

Use this skill when the user asks about:

Copilot usage metrics, adoption, or statistics
How many people are using Copilot in their org or enterprise
Copilot acceptance rates, suggestions, or chat usage
Per-user Copilot usage breakdowns
Copilot usage on a specific date

How to use this skill

Determine whether the user wants organization or enterprise level metrics.
Ask for the org name or enterprise slug if not provided.
Determine if they want aggregated metrics or per-user metrics.
Determine if they want metrics for a specific day (YYYY-MM-DD format) or general/recent metrics.
Run the appropriate script from this skill’s directory.

Available scripts

Organization metrics

get-org-metrics.sh <org> [day] — Get aggregated Copilot usage metrics for an organization. Optionally pass a specific day in YYYY-MM-DD format.
get-org-user-metrics.sh <org> [day] — Get per-user Copilot usage metrics for an organization. Optionally pass a specific day.

Enterprise metrics

get-enterprise-metrics.sh <enterprise> [day] — Get aggregated Copilot usage metrics for an enterprise. Optionally pass a specific day.
get-enterprise-user-metrics.sh <enterprise> [day] — Get per-user Copilot usage metrics for an enterprise. Optionally pass a specific day.

Formatting the output

When presenting results to the user:

Summarize key metrics: total active users, acceptance rate, total suggestions, total chat interactions
Use tables for per-user breakdowns
Highlight trends if comparing multiple days
Note that metrics data is available starting from October 10, 2025, and historical data is accessible for up to 1 year

Important notes

These API endpoints require GitHub Enterprise Cloud.
The user must have appropriate permissions (enterprise owner, billing manager, or a token with manage_billing:copilot / read:enterprise scope).
The “Copilot usage metrics” policy must be enabled in enterprise settings.
If the API returns 403, advise the user to check their token permissions and enterprise policy settings.

How this issue was made

Source

github.com/github/awesome-copilot, branch main, last pushed 24 September 2026.

Licence

MIT — the text of every skill is reproduced unmodified, frontmatter included, under the upstream licence.

Discovery

200 skills found by walking the repository tree for SKILL.md, not by matching a directory convention. 2 distinct layouts observed: .github/skills/*/SKILL.md, skills/*/SKILL.md.

Authorship

3 of 200 skills are installed into the repository rather than published from it. They are shelved in the closing “Credited skills” part and remain the work of their own authors. A skill counts as credited when its only copy lives under one agent’s dot directory; visible directories, per-agent mirror sets, and skills installable from this repository on skills.sh all count as published.

Issue colours

Resolved from a curated brand profile — hue 295°, chroma 0.190. Two accent tones are generated per issue and each is proven against its own ground before it ships: a single accent that passes AA on both light and dark paper is arithmetically impossible.

Heading repairs

1 repair applied to this skill so the document has one h1 and no skipped levels:

Removed “Copilot Usage Metrics”, a leading h1 that duplicated the skill title.

Spec compliance

Every skill satisfies the Agent Skills specification’s frontmatter rules.

Images

Images inside a skill come from the upstream repository. Where the author gave no alternative text we mark the image decorative rather than inventing a description — a plausible caption we made up is worse than none for the reader who depends on it.

Marketplace

A plugin manifest is published at .github/plugin/marketplace.json by GitHub, declaring 162 plugins. It is read for editorial metadata only — never as the skill index, which is always the repository tree.

Signal

Install counts come from skills.sh. They measure downloads, not quality, and an unranked repository is not an unread one.

Agent surfaces

The whole issue is available as one markdown document at /github/awesome-copilot.md, and each skill at its own .md URL.

Publication

Set by Skills Docs from the source repository. Body text is Literata at the reader’s chosen size and measure; code is Geist Mono. Nothing on this page was written by us except this paragraph.
