Similar to c12041b which added outdated agent detection, this commit adds:
- Version comparison process for detecting outdated local assets
- Fetch remote versions step in the process workflow
- Updated icons reference with outdated status indicators
- Update handling sections for managing outdated assets
- Updated output table examples to show outdated status
- Replace static github-mcp-registry.json with live API calls
- Fetch from https://api.mcp.github.com/v0.1/servers/ with pagination support
- Extract displayName from GitHub metadata for better matching
- Implement smart matching logic:
* Case-insensitive comparison
* Match against both displayName and full name
* Strip common suffixes like -mcp-server for pattern matching
- Make build process async to support API calls
- Cache registry data to only hit API once per build run
- Remove obsolete github-mcp-registry.json file
Benefits:
- No more manual updates to registry data
- Always uses latest MCP registry information
- Improved server name matching resilience
- Successfully loads all 54 servers from registry
* Add Software Engineering Team collection with 7 specialized agents
Adds a complete Software Engineering Team collection with 7 standalone
agents covering the full development lifecycle, based on learnings from
The AI-Native Engineering Flow experiments.
New Agents (all prefixed with 'se-' for collection identification):
- se-ux-ui-designer: Jobs-to-be-Done analysis, user journey mapping,
and Figma-ready UX research artifacts
- se-technical-writer: Creates technical documentation, blogs, and tutorials
- se-gitops-ci-specialist: CI/CD pipeline debugging and GitOps workflows
- se-product-manager-advisor: GitHub issue creation and product guidance
- se-responsible-ai-code: Bias testing, accessibility, and ethical AI
- se-system-architecture-reviewer: Architecture reviews with Well-Architected
- se-security-reviewer: OWASP Top 10/LLM/ML security and Zero Trust
Key Features:
- Each agent is completely standalone (no cross-dependencies)
- Concise display names for GitHub Copilot dropdown ("SE: [Role]")
- Fills gaps in awesome-copilot (UX design, content creation, CI/CD debugging)
- Enterprise patterns: OWASP, Zero Trust, WCAG, Well-Architected Framework
Collection manifest, auto-generated docs, and all agents follow
awesome-copilot conventions.
