#### Copilot-api is a reverse-engineered proxy of GitHub Copilot API

This is a reverse-engineered proxy of GitHub Copilot API. It is not supported
by GitHub, and may break unexpectedly. Use at your own risk.

This snap is not created by the copilot-api authors.

This snap uses experimental per-user daemons. Enable support in snapd before
installing it:

```
 sudo snap set system experimental.user-daemons=true
```

After installation, each user must log in to GitHub Copilot:

```
 copilot-api.login
```

The service listens on port 4141 by default. Show the current port with:

```
 copilot-api.config port
```

Set a different port with:

```
 copilot-api.config port 8080
```

Login and port settings are stored separately for each user. After logging in
or changing the port, restart that user's service:

```
 snap restart --user copilot-api
```

See the NPM page at <https://www.npmjs.com/package/copilot-api> for more
details.
