The GitHub Copilot SDK for Java is a client library that empowers your server-side Java code to create Copilot agent sessions, register tools, send prompts, and receive structured responses—all programmatically. It works in server environments, including Jakarta EE and Spring. If you’ve been building enterprise Java for any length of time, this SDK will feel like home: CompletableFuture, annotations, lambdas, virtual threads, it’s all here.

This post shows you how to use the SDK, walks through a complete Jakarta EE 11 sample application, and leaves you with concrete next steps to try it yourself. I chose Jakarta EE 11 for my demo because I was the lead release coordinator for that release. I believe in open standards as the best way to empower …
