The agent failed to resolve the 'auto' model alias because the
COPILOT_GITHUB_TOKEN secret returned 401 on the models endpoint.
Grant copilot-requests: write so the engine authenticates with the
workflow GITHUB_TOKEN, matching the other agentic workflows.

* docs(skills): update codebase-memory-mcp skill for server v0.11.0
codebase-memory-mcp v0.11.0 (2026-09-15) added get_file_outline,
compare_graphs and manage_adr set_sections, changed result paging
(next_offset / next_cursor / per-stream continuation fields) and
marked the query tools read-only. Bring the skill in line with that
surface and fix two statements that were wrong against the server:
search_graph has no direction argument, and query and semantic_query
cannot be combined in one call.
Every claim was checked against a live 0.11.0 server. An A/B on 54
headless runs scored this text 18/18, the published text 16/18 and
no skill 12/18.

* docs(skills): fix three codebase-memory-mcp statements found in review
- a .cbmignore negation can re-include the built-in skip directories,
except .git, node_modules, .worktrees and .claude-worktrees
- the dead-code query also excludes inbound CALL_REFERENCE edges, so
callbacks passed as values are not listed
- HTTP_CALLS edges always carry callee and url_path; method, args and
via depend on the extraction path
Each point was confirmed in the v0.11.0 source.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* docs(skills): align codebase-memory-mcp skill with the v0.11.0 source
A check of the skill's statements about server behaviour against the
v0.11.0 source, prompted by the Copilot review:
- get_code_snippet: auto outlines File, Module, Class and Interface nodes
longer than 200 lines; only source_mode="full" returns their body
- check_index_coverage: list all six path statuses, the freshness rule
and the scope statuses
- search_graph: relationship keeps nodes that touch such an edge; the
degree filter always counts five fixed edge types
- query_graph: on stale_cursor, re-run without the cursor
Each corrected statement was then run on a live 0.11.0 server.

* docs(skills): fix the dead-code shortcut, add two 0.11.0 gotchas
Review round three on the codebase-memory-mcp skill:
- the table's dead-code shortcut searched every label and returned File,
Module and Project nodes; it now passes label="Function" and says to
repeat with label="Method". exclude_entry_points is dropped: with
max_degree=0 it cannot exclude anything
- manage_adr: mode="update" replaces the whole document, set_sections
rewrites only the named sections, and an unmatched name is appended
- compare_graphs: identities begin with each snapshot's project name, so
unchanged symbols show up as added and removed; strip the prefixes
All three were reproduced on a live 0.11.0 server, and the other tool
calls in the skill's reference section were re-run there as written.

* docs(skills): name the two request-error statuses of check_index_coverage
Review round four on the codebase-memory-mcp skill: gotcha 5 listed the
index-coverage statuses but not outside_project and invalid_path, which
v0.11.0 returns when the request itself is wrong (an absolute or empty
path, a path with .., or a non-string entry). Those rows carry
freshness=unavailable and recommended_action=use_project_relative_path,
so the fix is the path, not reading source or reindexing. Scope rows
never carry a recommended_action; the text said every row did.
Both reproduced on a live 0.11.0 server against a fresh index.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* docs(skills): split outside_project by cause in check_index_coverage
Review round five on the codebase-memory-mcp skill: gotcha 5 described
every outside_project row as a request error. In v0.11.0 that is only
the normalization branch (an absolute or empty path, or one with ..),
which shares freshness=unavailable and
recommended_action=use_project_relative_path with invalid_path (a
non-string, a control character, or a path that normalizes to nothing
such as ./). A syntactically valid relative path whose target resolves
through a symlink outside the canonical root is also outside_project,
but with freshness=outside_project and the generic
read_source_and_reindex action. The text now separates the two and
tells the agent not to follow the link to its external target, which
is the Rooted Filesystem Fallback boundary.
Reproduced on a live 0.11.0 server against a fixture with a file
symlink and a directory symlink pointing outside the root, and checked
in src/mcp/mcp.c (coverage_normalize_rel, coverage_path_freshness,
cbm_path_within_root, coverage_recommended_action).

* docs(skills): correct search_code paging and ADR section names
Review round six on the codebase-memory-mcp skill:
- gotcha 3 gave search_code one 10-row page. In v0.11.0 it pages three
streams independently: 10 symbol results (result_offset, next_offset),
5 raw matches (raw_offset, raw_next_offset) and 20 directories
(directory_offset, directory_next_offset), each with its own has_more
flag
- gotcha 9 sent the agent to the default outline mode to pick a name for
set_sections. outline lists every heading level, including lines inside
fenced blocks, while set_sections writes only unfenced ## sections and
appends a new one for any other name; the writable names come from
mode="sections"
Both reproduced on a live 0.11.0 server: search_code returned the three
flags separately, and set_sections with a level-3 and a fenced heading
name appended two sections to a scratch ADR instead of editing it.

* Add submission-gate check, merge-risk tiers, and PR status state machine (#4184)
Phase 2 (enforcement) of github/awesome-copilot#4184:
- submission-gate aggregate required check (reader) with infra vs contribution failure classification
- merge-risk:low/medium/high classification from .github/risk-tiers.yml with tier approval policy
- Submission Gate Writer maintaining state labels and a persistent status comment
- /rerun-checks and /request-review PR commands
- validate-skills and validate-submission-gate workflows, unit tests, and maintainer docs

* Fix codespell findings and add spelling to submission gate checks
Co-authored-by: Copilot App <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com>
* Harden submission gate per review feedback
- Publish the submission-gate check from the trusted writer via the Checks API
and flag any other submission-gate check run as tampering
- Fail closed on truncated file lists, unscannable diffs, permission lookup
errors, and skipped required checks
- Discard evaluations when the PR head or reviews change mid-run
- Low tier requires a resource owner approval
- Commands must start the comment, matching the workflow filter
Co-authored-by: Copilot App <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com>
* Address #4190 review: command reader/writer, pools, paths, staleness
- Split /rerun-checks and /request-review into a read-only issue_comment
reader and a workflow_run writer that re-reads the comment, PR, and
permission before writing.
- Drop the workflow-security pool; agentic workflows and hooks are
content (medium unless they add scripts or hook commands); the core
pool is core-maintainers.
- Include each check's workflow file and eng scripts in its paths.
- Discard evaluations when the base branch or risk labels change; run
the gate on PR edits (retargeting).
- Correct copies of the writer's check that claim success while the
evaluation fails.

* Fail closed on lost contributor signal; publish gate check before labels
- A contributor check whose pr-check job succeeded but whose result artifact
is missing or unreadable is now an infrastructure failure, so a lost HIGH
signal can't lower the approval tier.
- Publish the submission-gate check right after stale-state revalidation;
label and comment sync are independent and reported afterwards.
- Revert the self-path added to validate-agentic-workflows-pr.yml's trigger:
that workflow rejects any .github change. Exempt it in the drift test.

* Fail closed on bad routing config; advisory checks never hold the gate
- loadGateConfig: a missing review-routing.yml still falls back, but a
file that can't be parsed (or whose pools isn't a mapping) now throws
instead of silently relaxing approvals.
- Pending required: false checks no longer keep the PR in
awaiting-automation or the gate check in progress, and the polling loop
doesn't wait on them. They render as pending (advisory).
- PR commands: 👀 marks a command as claimed; 🚀 is written only after
the reply is posted and is the only replay guard, so a run that failed
partway can be retried.

* Phase 1: distributed CODEOWNERS and automated reviewer routing (#4184)
- Replace the individual default CODEOWNERS owner with the core-maintainer
team and add domain team ownership for extensions, plugins, content,
hooks, workflows, .github, and eng.
- Add .github/review-routing.yml as the single source of truth for reviewer
pools, routes, labels, and SLA settings (ships in dry-run mode).
- Add eng/review-routing.mjs (+ unit tests) with business-day math,
least-loaded reviewer selection, routing and escalation planning, and
workflow_run artifact validation.
- Add Review Routing (workflow_run/dispatch/schedule), Review Routing Request
(read-only needs-reviewer reader), and Review Escalation (weekday schedule)
workflows.
- Add needs-reviewer, review-overdue, review-escalated to setup-labels.
- Document the model in docs/maintainers/review-routing.md.
Co-authored-by: Copilot App <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com>
* Address review feedback on reviewer routing and escalation
- Escalate at routedOn + escalation business days (Mon -> Fri)
- Leave labels untouched when requestReviewers fails and fail the job
- Serialize read/plan/apply per PR across routing and escalation
- Treat Label PR Intent artifact labels as authoritative
- Re-route to an uncovered pool on head changes without restarting SLA
- Use the due-label timestamp as the review boundary
- Fall back to pool/escalation teams and report what was requested
Co-authored-by: Copilot App <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com>
* Address second-round review feedback on review routing (#4184)
- CODEOWNERS: route /hooks/ and /workflows/ to content reviewers, drop the
separate /.github/workflows/ rule, and leave per-resource owner lines as on
main (their removal is deferred to a separate cleanup).
- Routing: ignore pending requests for unavailable reviewers when checking
coverage; needs-reviewer excludes prior reviewers and changes nothing when no
new reviewer can be requested.
- Escalation comments show the actual routing date.
- Cap sweep matrices at 256 targets and defer the remainder.
- Docs: best-effort load balancing, matrix cap, and needs-reviewer semantics.

* Route workflow and hooks labels to the content pool (#4184)

workflows and hooks are reviewed like other content, and the repository's
own GitHub Actions workflows stay with core maintainers.

* Pin routing contract in tests; make CONTRIBUTING routing note dry-run aware
- Assert the exact label-to-pool mapping and priority order, pool set, and default/escalation pools for the shipped config.
- CONTRIBUTING.md: describe automatic routing as active only once dry_run is turned off.

The README build fetched the live GitHub MCP registry to decide whether to
link server names, which made output nondeterministic (e.g. Apify) and
caused the validate-readme check to fail intermittently.

* Add v-development skill
Teach Copilot V language development: toolchain, v.mod layout, build/test/fmt, and Option/Result error handling.
* Fix v-development skill accuracy
Correct v.mod schema (dependencies), manifest optionality, entry-point guidance, VPM registry URL, and globals rule per official V docs.
* Correct mutability and Option/Result propagation guidance
Variables use mut, only struct sections use mut:; postfix ? propagates Options, ! propagates errors; no forced unwrap.
* Scope compilation, nil, and mutability guidance to verified behavior
v run excludes test files; nil only in unsafe/C interop; mutable parameters documented.
* Keep example Config fields immutable
The port field was never mutated; placing it under mut: contradicted the immutable-by-default guidance.
* Recommend json2 over superseded json module
Official V docs teach json2 for encoding/decoding.
* Refactor Learning Hub content to reduce changelog-audit-trail noise
Follows up on the Learning Hub content audit report: automated
changelog-driven PRs had turned several evergreen guide pages into a
version-history audit trail rather than current-state documentation
(e.g. copilot-configuration-basics.md had 86 inline vX.Y.Z+ tags).
Content changes:
- copilot-configuration-basics.md, installing-and-using-plugins.md,
building-custom-agents.md, automating-with-hooks.md, and
understanding-mcp-servers.md: removed decorative inline version
tags from the main teaching flow so pages read as 'how to use this
today' rather than 'when this changed'. Genuinely actionable
history (renames, removed flags/settings, breaking defaults) is
consolidated into a new Compatibility and Migration Notes section
per page instead of being scattered inline.
Automation change:
- .github/workflows/learning-hub-updater.md (+ recompiled .lock.yml):
added a 'stale version notes' detection step, a content model that
distinguishes evergreen guides from Compatibility and Migration
Notes sections, consolidation rules, and a required content-cleanup
checklist item in the PR body, so future automated updates keep
this pattern instead of re-accumulating inline version chronology.

* Update .NET Copilot SDK cookbook: fix On<T> breaking change, add in-process runtime, tool search, and message provenance recipes
- Fix breaking change: Session.On is now generic (On<T> where T : SessionEvent).
Updated all recipes that used the old non-generic session.On(evt => ...) pattern:
error-handling, pr-visualization, managing-local-files, accessibility-report,
ralph-loop (both .md and .cs where applicable).
- Add new 'In-Process Runtime' recipe (in-process-runtime.md + recipe/in-process-runtime.cs)
demonstrating RuntimeConnection.ForInProcess(), live-tested.
- Document tool search / deferred loading (SessionConfig.ToolSearch / ToolSearchConfig)
in pr-visualization.md, live-tested.
- Document typed message provenance (MessageOptions.Source / MessageSource) in
error-handling.md, live-tested.
- Fix dotnet/README.md recipe index: it was missing Ralph Loop and Accessibility
Report entries; also added the new In-Process Runtime entry.
- Add In-Process Runtime entry to the top-level cookbook/copilot-sdk/README.md
.NET section.
- Update dotnet/recipe/README.md runnable-examples table with the new recipe.
All existing .NET cookbook recipes were rebuilt and rechecked against the current
GitHub Copilot SDK (Copilot CLI 1.0.85); no other breaking changes were found.

* Update cookbook model names to current supported models
- Replace stale/nonexistent model IDs (gpt-5, claude-sonnet-4.5,
claude-opus-4.6, gpt-5.1-codex-mini) with current values from the
supported AI models list
- Prefer Model = "auto" wherever a specific model isn't load-bearing
to the recipe's teaching point
- ralph-loop: pin gpt-5.3-codex (current codex-family GA model), since
a dedicated coding model is a deliberate, documented choice for the
autonomous loop
- multiple-sessions: reshape the model narrative so it demonstrates a
real explicit-override use case (A/B testing via claude-sonnet-5)
instead of two sessions sharing the same hardcoded model
Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com>
* Use SendAndWaitAsync in in-process runtime recipe
Replace the event-based TaskCompletionSource pattern with SendAndWaitAsync so the example waits for the final assistant response, propagates session errors, and uses the SDK timeout behavior.
