# Radius Canvas Radius Canvas is bundled with the `radius` plugin for the [GitHub Copilot app](https://docs.github.com/en/copilot/concepts/agents/github-copilot-app). It lets you define, visualize, and deploy an application with [Radius](https://github.com/radius-project/radius) without leaving Copilot. Radius is a cloud-native application platform that helps developers and platform engineers build and manage applications together. ## Install the plugin The `radius` plugin is available in the [`github/awesome-copilot`](https://github.com/github/awesome-copilot) plugin catalog. The Radius canvas runs only in the [GitHub Copilot app](https://docs.github.com/en/copilot/concepts/agents/github-copilot-app). Open the app, select **Customize** in the side menu, and then select **Plugins**. Search for `radius` and install the plugin. Restart your Copilot session after installing so the skills and canvas become available. Use the plugin's three-dot menu to update or uninstall it. The Radius Canvas UI itself is only available via the [GitHub Copilot app](https://docs.github.com/en/copilot/concepts/agents/github-copilot-app). That being said, the Radius plugin bundles other AI tools that may be used independently of the Canvas. See [`plugins/radius/README.md`](./plugins/radius/README.md) for what the plugin bundles and how to use it. > **NOTE:** Radius Canvas is in preview. Send us your feedback: > [open an issue](https://github.com/radius-project/ai-extensions/issues/new/choose) > and tell us what you think. ## Overview The [GitHub Copilot app](https://docs.github.com/en/copilot/concepts/agents/github-copilot-app) is a desktop application for agent-driven development, available on macOS, Linux, and Windows. It is built on the GitHub Copilot CLI and integrates natively with GitHub, so your repositories, branches, issues, and pull requests work out of the box. The app gives you one place to direct AI agents across parallel workstreams and manage the full development lifecycle. Within the app, a [canvas extension](https://docs.github.com/en/copilot/how-tos/github-copilot-app/working-with-canvas-extensions) is a shared, interactive surface where people and agents collaborate on a work artifact. Canvases are bidirectional: the agent updates the canvas as it works, and you steer, edit, and verify directly on the same surface instead of relying on chat alone. A canvas opens in the app's right side panel and combines UI controls for people with agent-callable capabilities. Each canvas extension is a small package (typically a `package.json` and an `extension.mjs` entry file) that defines the canvas behavior and its capabilities. **Radius Canvas** turns your source code into a modeled Radius application, shows that application as a live graph across its lifecycle, and deploys it to your cloud environment, all from inside Copilot. It is organized into three areas: - **Applications.** The application graph models the source code in your GitHub repository and renders it as a live graph with four views: - **Modeled**: the application as you've designed it. - **Planned**: the application as you want it deployed. - **Deployed**: the application as it runs in your environments. - **Diff**: what changed between two branches, such as a pull request against `main`. - **Environments.** An environment is the landing zone that defines where an application deploys. You create an environment for Azure, verify its credentials, and configure the infrastructure your applications run on. - **Deployments.** A deployment sends an application to a configured environment. Radius provisions the cloud infrastructure the application needs and runs it through the generated GitHub Actions workflow. The product logic is UI-agnostic and lives in a shared core (`packages/core`), so the same modeling, graph, platform, and workflow-generation logic can back additional UI surfaces beyond the Copilot canvas in the future. ## Agentic skills The plugin also ships five agentic skills, in [`extensions/radius/skills/`](./extensions/radius/skills). Each one tells the agent how and when to drive a part of the Radius workflow — modeling, graphing, environments, deployment, and deletion — and pairs with the matching canvas actions and tools. See [`plugins/radius/README.md`](./plugins/radius/README.md) for what each skill does. ## Architecture This is a [pnpm](https://pnpm.io/) workspace monorepo. UI-agnostic product logic lives in a shared core (`packages/core`), and the Copilot canvas adapter (`packages/adapter-canvas`) wires it into the GitHub Copilot app. The core never depends on an adapter, the Copilot SDK, HTTP, or the DOM; anything that touches the outside world goes through a **port**, which keeps the same logic reusable across future UI surfaces. See [`packages/core/README.md`](./packages/core/README.md) for the full architecture and extension guides, and [Contributing](./CONTRIBUTING.md) for the repository layout and development workflow. ## Getting started See [Contributing](./CONTRIBUTING.md) for prerequisites, the repository layout, the build and test workflow, and how to add compute platforms, canvas actions, or new UI adapters. ## Getting help - ❓ **Have a question?** - Visit our [Discord server](https://aka.ms/radius/discord) to post your question and we'll get back to you. - ⚠️ **Found an issue?** - [Open a bug report](https://github.com/radius-project/ai-extensions/issues/new/choose) - 💡 **Have a proposal?** - [Open a feature request](https://github.com/radius-project/ai-extensions/issues/new/choose) ## Contributing to Radius Canvas Visit [Contributing](./CONTRIBUTING.md) for more information on how to build, test, and contribute to this repository. ## Community We welcome your contributions and suggestions! One of the easiest ways to contribute is to participate in Issue discussions, chat on our [Discord server](https://aka.ms/radius/discord). For more information on community engagement, developer and contributing guidelines and more, head over to the [Radius community repo](https://github.com/radius-project/community). ## Releasing [Changesets](https://changesets.dev/) drives independent plugin versions and changelogs. Every merge to `main` refreshes each plugin's rolling `<plugin>@edge` channel. The **Release** workflow can prepare one plugin or every pending plugin; merging its scope-labelled PR validates the exact version diff, builds behind shared gates, and publishes attested assets on a zero-history `releases/<plugin>/v<version>` branch tagged `<plugin>@<version>` — the one tag a stable release writes, and the tag its GitHub release is cut from. GitHub immutable-release enforcement is an optional repository-variable switch. Follow the [release runbook](./docs/eng/RELEASE_RUNBOOK.md) to cut one, or see [`RELEASING.md`](./docs/eng/RELEASING.md) for the full lifecycle. ## Code of conduct Please refer to our [Radius Community Code of Conduct](https://github.com/radius-project/community/blob/main/CODE-OF-CONDUCT.md).
