oh-my-copilot
oh-my-copilot is a fork of oh-my-claudecode by Yeachan Heo, adapted for GitHub Copilot CLI.
For Codex users: Check out oh-my-codex — the same orchestration experience for OpenAI Codex CLI.
Multi-agent orchestration for Copilot CLI. Zero learning curve.
Don't learn Copilot CLI. Just use OMC.

Quick Start
Step 1: Install
/plugin marketplace add https://github.com/RobinNorberg/oh-my-copilot
/plugin install oh-my-copilotStep 2: Setup
/omg-setupStep 3: Build something
autopilot: build a REST API for managing tasksThat's it. Everything else is automatic.
Not Sure Where to Start?
If you're uncertain about requirements, have a vague idea, or want to micromanage the design:
/deep-interview "I want to build a task management app"The deep interview uses Socratic questioning to clarify your thinking before any code is written. It exposes hidden assumptions and measures clarity across weighted dimensions, ensuring you know exactly what to build before execution begins.
Team Mode (Recommended)
Starting in v4.1.7, Team is the canonical orchestration surface in OMC. The legacy swarm keyword/skill has been removed; use team directly.
/team 3:executor "fix all TypeScript errors"Team runs as a staged pipeline:
team-plan → team-prd → team-exec → team-verify → team-fix (loop)
Enable Copilot CLI native teams in ~/.copilot/settings.json:
{
"env": {
"CLAUDE_CODE_EXPERIMENTAL_AGENT_TEAMS": "1"
}
}If teams are disabled, OMC will warn you and fall back to non-team execution where possible.
tmux CLI Workers — Codex & Gemini (v4.4.0+)
v4.4.0 removes the Codex/Gemini MCP servers (x, g providers). Use the CLI-first Team runtime (omc team ...) to spawn real tmux worker panes:
omc team 2:codex "review auth module for security issues"
omc team 2:gemini "redesign UI components for accessibility"
omc team 1:copilot "implement the payment flow"
omc team status auth-review
omc team shutdown auth-review/omg-teams remains as a legacy compatibility skill and now routes to omc team ....
For mixed Codex + Gemini work in one command, use the /ccg skill (routes via ask-codex + ask-gemini, then Copilot synthesizes):
/ccg Review this PR — architecture (Codex) and UI components (Gemini)| Surface | Workers | Best For |
| ------------------------- | ------------------ | -------------------------------------------- |
| omc team N:codex "..." | N Codex CLI panes | Code review, security analysis, architecture |
| omc team N:gemini "..." | N Gemini CLI panes | UI/UX design, docs, large-context tasks |
| omc team N:copilot "..." | N Copilot CLI panes | General tasks via Copilot CLI in tmux |
| /ccg | ask-codex + ask-gemini | Tri-model advisor synthesis |
Workers spawn on-demand and die when their task completes — no idle resource usage. Requires codex / gemini CLIs installed and an active tmux session.
Note: Package naming — The project is branded as oh-my-copilot (repo, plugin, commands), but the npm package is published as
oh-my-copilot. If you install the CLI tools via npm/bun, usenpm install -g oh-my-copilot.
Updating
# 1. Update the marketplace clone
/plugin marketplace update omc
# 2. Re-run setup to refresh configuration
/omg-setupNote: If marketplace auto-update is not enabled, you must manually run
/plugin marketplace update omcto sync the latest version before running setup.
If you experience issues after updating, clear the old plugin cache:
/omg-doctorWhy oh-my-copilot?

- Persistent execution - Won't give up until the job is verified complete
- Cost optimization - Smart model routing saves 30-50% on tokens
- Learn from experience - Automatically extracts and reuses problem-solving patterns
- Real-time visibility - HUD statusline shows what's happening under the hood
Features
Orchestration Modes
Multiple strategies for different use cases — from Team-backed orchestration to token-efficient refactoring. Learn more →
| Mode | What it is | Use For |
| ----------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------ |
| Team (recommended) | Canonical staged pipeline (team-plan → team-prd → team-exec → team-verify → team-fix) | Coordinated Copilot agents on a shared task list |
| omc team (CLI) | tmux CLI workers — real copilot/codex/gemini processes in split-panes | Codex/Gemini CLI tasks; on-demand spawn, die when done |
| ccg | Tri-model advisors via ask-codex + ask-gemini, Copilot synthesizes | Mixed backend+UI work needing both Codex and Gemini |
| Autopilot | Autonomous execution (single lead agent) | End-to-end feature work with minimal ceremony |
| Ultrawork | Maximum parallelism (non-team) | Burst parallel fixes/refactors where Team isn't needed |
| Ralph | Persistent mode with verify/fix loops | Tasks that must complete fully (no silent partials) |
| Pipeline | Sequential, staged processing | Multi-step transformations with strict ordering |
| Ultrapilot (legacy) | Deprecated compatibility mode (autopilot pipeline alias) | Existing workflows and older docs |
Intelligent Orchestration
- 32 specialized agents for architecture, research, design, testing, data science
- Smart model routing - Haiku for simple tasks, Opus for complex reasoning
- Automatic delegation - Right agent for the job, every time
Developer Experience
- Magic keywords -
ralph,ulw,teamfor explicit control - HUD statusline - Real-time orchestration metrics in your status bar
- Skill learning - Extract reusable patterns from your sessions
- Analytics & cost tracking - Understand token usage across all sessions

Azure DevOps Integration
oh-my-copilot supports Azure DevOps natively — auto-detection, work item management, PR operations, and triage workflows.
Auto-Detection
When your git remote points to dev.azure.com or *.visualstudio.com, OMC automatically:
- Detects the ADO platform on session start
- Injects available
mcp__azure-devops__*MCP tool context into agent prompts - Reads
.omg/config.jsonfor project-specific settings
Setup
/oh-my-copilot:omg-ado-setupThis configures your ADO connection — verifies az CLI auth, auto-detects org/project from git remote, and writes .omg/config.json:
{
"version": 1,
"platform": "azure-devops",
"ado": {
"org": "my-org",
"project": "my-project",
"defaultWorkItemType": "User Story",
"areaPath": "MyProject\\Team Alpha",
"iterationPath": "MyProject\\Sprint 5"
}
}Cross-project support: when code and work items live in different ADO projects, add workItemOrg and workItemProject fields.
Triage
/oh-my-copilot:omg-ado-triageScans 5 ADO surfaces in parallel and produces a prioritized summary:
- Untriaged work items
- Your active work items
- Open pull requests with review status
- Pipeline build status
- Security alerts
Uses MCP tools when available, falls back to az CLI.
Agent Awareness
Five agents have built-in ADO knowledge (planner, verifier, debugger, analyst, explore). They automatically use ADO MCP tools for:
- Work item queries and CRUD
- PR creation and review
- Build log investigation
- Cross-repo code search
- Wiki documentation lookup
Provider API
The AzureDevOpsProvider exposes programmatic access:
| Method | Description |
|--------|-------------|
| listWorkItems() | WIQL queries with injection prevention |
| createWorkItem() | Create with type, area/iteration paths, tags |
| addTag() / removeTag() | Work item tag management |
| addComment() | Add discussion comments |
| listPullRequests() | List PRs by status |
| createPullRequest() | Create PR with source/target branches |
| mergePullRequest() | Complete a PR |
All commands use execFileSync with WIQL escaping for security.
Utilities
Provider Advisor (omc ask)
Run local provider CLIs and save a markdown artifact under .omg/artifacts/ask/:
omc ask copilot "review this migration plan"
omc ask codex --prompt "identify architecture risks"
omc ask gemini --prompt "propose UI polish ideas"
omc ask copilot --agent-prompt executor --prompt "draft implementation steps"Canonical env vars:
OMC_ASK_ADVISOR_SCRIPTOMC_ASK_ORIGINAL_TASK
Phase-1 aliases OMX_ASK_ADVISOR_SCRIPT and OMX_ASK_ORIGINAL_TASK are accepted with deprecation warnings.
Rate Limit Wait
Auto-resume Copilot CLI sessions when rate limits reset.
omc wait # Check status, get guidance
omc wait --start # Enable auto-resume daemon
omc wait --stop # Disable daemonRequires: tmux (for session detection)
Monitoring & Analytics
Use the HUD for live observability and omc for cost/session reporting:
- HUD analytics preset:
/oh-my-copilot:hud setupthen set"omcHud": { "preset": "analytics" } - Cost reports:
omc cost daily|weekly|monthly - Session history/backfill:
omc sessions,omc backfill - Raw logs:
.omg/state/token-tracking.jsonl,.omg/state/agent-replay-*.jsonl
Notification Tags (Teams/Telegram/Discord/Slack)
You can configure who gets tagged when stop callbacks send session summaries.
# Set/replace tag list
omc config-stop-callback teams --enable --webhook <url> --tag-list "John Doe:xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx"
omc config-stop-callback telegram --enable --token <bot_token> --chat <chat_id> --tag-list "@alice,bob"
omc config-stop-callback discord --enable --webhook <url> --tag-list "@here,123456789012345678,role:987654321098765432"
omc config-stop-callback slack --enable --webhook <url> --tag-list "<!here>,<@U1234567890>"
# Incremental updates

Platform & tmux
OMC features like omc team and rate-limit detection require tmux:
| Platform | tmux provider | Install |
| -------------- | -------------------------------------------------------- | ---------------------- |
| macOS | tmux | brew install tmux |
| Ubuntu/Debian | tmux | sudo apt install tmux|
| Fedora | tmux | sudo dnf install tmux|
| Arch | tmux | sudo pacman -S tmux |
| Windows | psmux (native) | winget install psmux |
| Windows (WSL2) | tmux (inside WSL) | sudo apt install tmux|
Windows users: psmux provides a native
tmuxbinary for Windows with 76 tmux-compatible commands. No WSL required.
Optional: Multi-AI Orchestration
OMC can optionally orchestrate external AI providers for cross-validation and design consistency. These are not required — OMC works fully without them.
| Provider | Install | What it enables |
| --------------------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------ |
| Gemini CLI | npm install -g @google/gemini-cli | Design review, UI consistency (1M token context) |
| Codex CLI | npm install -g @openai/codex | Architecture validation, code review cross-check |
Cost: 3 Pro plans (Copilot + Gemini + ChatGPT) cover everything for ~$60/month.
