AI coding assistants are powerful out of the box, but every team has unique workflows. This talk explores
the new extensibility model for GitHub Copilot: agent skills for teaching Copilot specialized tasks via SKILL.md
files, plugins for packaging and distributing those capabilities, and marketplaces for discovering and sharing them
across teams.

Key topics include:

- Agent Skills — the folder-based, demand-loaded format that works across Copilot CLI, VS Code, Claude Code, Codex
CLI, and Gemini CLI
- Plugins — bundling skills, agents, hooks, and manifests into installable packages
- Marketplaces — creating and publishing registries for plugin distribution and versioning
- Cross-tool compatibility — the open Agent Skills standard: write once, discovered everywhere
- Live demo — building a plugin from scratch and publishing it
- Security & best practices — the plugin permission model and tips for teams

Attendees will leave understanding how to extend their AI assistants with custom, reusable capabilities and share
them across their organization.
