# Copilot CLI × Tokenade

> Tokenade covers all of Copilot CLI: every layer applies, and you change nothing about how you work.

## What `tokenade install` does

- Hooks in `~/.copilot/hooks/tokenade.json`: PreToolUse (rewrites the command), postToolUse (`modifiedResult`), SessionStart, UserPromptSubmit, PreCompact, subagentStart. Needs Copilot CLI ≥ 1.0.24.
- Rules: `~/.copilot/copilot-instructions.md`.
- MCP: every third-party server in `~/.copilot/mcp-config.json` is wrapped as `tokenade mcp-proxy -- <original command>` (original kept, undone by `tokenade uninstall`), so its results reach you folded.
