Copilot SDK + Foundry Local: Fully Offline Agentic Coding
Story
The Copilot SDK combined with Foundry Local enables fully offline agentic code fixing with data sovereignty guarantees. A single BYOK config object routes all inference from cloud to localhost. The sample "Local Repo Patch Agent" demonstrates a 4-phase workflow: PLAN -> EDIT -> VERIFY -> SUMMARY — scanning repos, fixing bugs, running tests, and generating change reports entirely on your hardware. First production-grade pattern for air-gapped agentic coding.
