Your GitHub Copilot subscription can be accessed from the command line. This requires that your Copilot subscription be active and your GitHub account be authenticated. This is done through the official GitHub command line interface called gh. You can read the full documentation for deploying from the command line on the github-copilot-in-the-cli docs.
