Use same executable with different credentials

[WindowsNT]

I put it in my alma installation and it works after login all right via the python Sdk. Can I direct it to use different login session each time I connect to it? I.e. Save the /login info and restore it on demand, I don't want it to be locked to the current running account.

Thanks for opening this issue, @WindowsNT!

I've labeled this as a question and sdk/python since you mentioned using the Python SDK. I've also added needs-info because we need a bit more detail to help you.

Clarifying questions:

1. When you say "direct it to use different login session," are you asking about:

   • Using multiple GitHub accounts with the same CLI installation?
   • Switching between different Copilot subscriptions?
   • Something else?

2. What's your specific use case? Are you building an application that serves multiple users, or managing personal accounts?

3. Are you referring to the Copilot CLI authentication (gh copilot login) or SDK client configuration?

Note: This seems related to #182, which discusses user-delegated authentication for multi-tenant scenarios. If that matches your need, please review that issue and add your thoughts there.

Currently, the Copilot CLI authentication is device/user-based. Each CLI installation authenticates with a single GitHub account. If you need to work with multiple accounts, you would typically need separate CLI installations or configurations.
