in Python SDK, multi-session methods like `list_sessions` and `delete_session` does not exist, raises AttributeError exception when trying to use it.

I'm trying to implement multiple sessions on my bot according to this cookbook guide about multiple sessions: https://github.com/github/copilot-sdk/blob/main/cookbook/python/multiple-sessions.md

Which when I try to use list_sessions() method, it just throws AttributeError because it does not exist at all from CopilotClient object, same thing for delete_session() method which does not exist.

Here's the sample code to reproduce

import asyncio
from copilot import CopilotClient

async def main():
    client = CopilotClient()
    await client.start()

    session = await client.create_session({
        "session_id": "test-session-123",
        "model": "gpt-4.1"
    })
    response = await session.send_and_wait({"prompt": "Hello, world!"})

    print(response.data.content)

    await session.destroy()

    # List sessions - raises AttributeError exception ''CopilotClient' object has no attribute 'list_sessions'
    _sessions = await client.list_sessions()
    for s in _sessions:
        print(s)

    # Delete session, also raises similar exception
    await client.delete_session("test-session-123")
    
    # Stop
    await client.stop()

asyncio.run(main())

I'm currently using github-copilot-sdk version 0.1.16 in which as of writing this issue... this is the latest one installed from pip. Ubuntu 24.04, venv, Python 3.12.1

Thanks for reporting this, @zavocc! 👋

I've confirmed the issue — the Python SDK's CopilotClient class is indeed missing the list_sessions() and delete_session() methods that are documented in the cookbook guides. This is a documentation/implementation gap.

Labels applied:

• bug — Missing functionality that's documented
• sdk/python — Python SDK specific
• documentation — The cookbook needs updating or the methods need implementing

The team will review whether to implement these methods or update the cookbook documentation accordingly.

Fixed in #153. I'll trigger a new github-copilot-sdk release right now and you should be good to go
