NOXGILD FOR VS CODE + GITHUB COPILOT

Give GitHub Copilot a whole computer, not just a codebase.

Give GitHub Copilot access to the environment around the repo: the computer, long-running processes, signed-in browser, and native apps.

Your AI can leave the chat or repo and finish the job.

Noxgild adds controlled access to files, persistent terminal processes, a signed-in browser, native desktop applications, and a separate hosted Cloud Browser. The same authorized computer can be reused from other supported AI clients.

Files and terminal

Read, edit, build, test, and keep long-running work alive.

Signed-in browser

Use the authenticated session that matters for real verification.

desktop applications

Operate native software when browser and terminal are not enough.

Cloud Browser

VERIFICATION PROMPT

Use the connected Noxgild MCP server only. Call noxgild_devices and list my available computers and their current status.

BEFORE YOU START

Finished the setup steps?

Open Connect AI, verify your computer appears, then run the first-task prompt from the guide.

GOOD FIRST TASKS

Ask for an outcome, not a tool demo.

Run this branch on my QA computer and verify the fix in the signed-in browser.

Start the development server, keep it running, and inspect its output while I continue coding.

Open the native desktop build and verify the UI change.

Having trouble?

  • If Noxgild tools do not appear, reload the VS Code window and check that the noxgild MCP server is enabled.
  • If authorization looks stale, reconnect the Noxgild server from VS Code and authorize again.

High-impact actions can require exact approval. CAPTCHA, OTP, passkeys, UAC, and other protected verification remain human-controlled.

Connect VS Code + Copilot to the environment where your work actually happens.
