Bitrix AI plugin for GitHub Copilot
Bitrix AI
A GitHub Copilot plugin with PHP and Bitrix coding conventions, template reformatting commands, and Bitrix24's official developer MCP server wired in
Low risk
We rate an entry low when it mostly gives the agent instructions and reference material.
Why this level
- The skills reformat local PHP files and templates and do not write to Bitrix24
- The bundled MCP server is official and limited to developer documentation
Install
Manual install
In VS Code, open the Command Palette, run Chat: Install Plugin From Source, and point it to https://github.com/Suntechnic/vs-bitrix-ai.git; after installation the skills appear in Copilot chat when you type /.
This is third-party code. Review the repository files before installing.
What it does
The plugin installs in VS Code as a GitHub Copilot Chat agent plugin and adds five skills: php and bitrix-php run automatically and set conventions for PHP code style, Bitrix tags and component HTML attributes; php-reformator and bx-trf reformat a file or component template to match those conventions on command; bx-tint inserts ready HTML markup into a Bitrix component template. Alongside the skills, the plugin manifest also wires in the remote b24-dev-mcp server at mcp-dev.bitrix24.tech, Bitrix24's own official developer MCP server, already listed separately in this catalog.
Who it is for. For 1C-Bitrix PHP developers working in VS Code with GitHub Copilot who want consistent component code conventions plus access to official developer docs through MCP.
Good fit when
- A team writes Bitrix components and templates in VS Code with GitHub Copilot and wants one consistent code style
- You need to quickly reformat an existing PHP file or component template to project conventions
- You want access to Bitrix24's official developer MCP server without setting it up separately
Not a fit when
- You use something other than VS Code with GitHub Copilot
- You need your own code conventions different from what the php and bitrix-php skills set
Example request
Reformat the catalog.section component to project conventions using the /bx-trf commandLimitations
It needs a recent VS Code build, 1.100 or newer, with agent plugin support. There is a single author, no stars, and a GPL-2.0 license. The plugin hardwires the remote b24-dev-mcp server at mcp-dev.bitrix24.tech, and the README does not describe managing or disabling just that part of the plugin separately.
How to disable. Open the Extensions panel, search for @agentPlugins, find Bitrix AI and remove it from the context menu.
Security check
- The skills reformat local PHP files and templates and do not write to Bitrix24
- The bundled MCP server is official and limited to developer documentation
README in short
The Russian README describes installing via the Chat: Install Plugin From Source command in VS Code, automatic updates every 24 hours, the removal steps, and a table of five skills noting which run automatically and which are command-triggered. The bundled MCP server is not mentioned directly in the README; it is only visible in the repository's .mcp.json file.
FAQ
Which MCP server comes bundled with the plugin?
Bitrix24's official developer server, b24-dev-mcp, at mcp-dev.bitrix24.tech, referenced in the plugin's .mcp.json file.
Do the php and bitrix-php skills need to be invoked manually?
No, per plugin.json they run automatically, unlike php-reformator, bx-tint and bx-trf, which are invoked with a command.
