Replace Collections with Plugins as first-class citizens in the repo.
With the Copilot CLI v0.409 release making plugins an on-by-default
marketplace, collections are redundant overhead.
## What changed
### Plugin Infrastructure
- Created eng/validate-plugins.mjs (replaces validate-collections.mjs)
- Created eng/create-plugin.mjs (replaces create-collection.mjs)
- Enhanced all 42 plugin.json files with tags, featured, display, and
items metadata from their corresponding collection.yml files
### Build & Website
- Updated eng/update-readme.mjs to generate plugin docs
- Updated eng/generate-website-data.mjs to emit plugins.json with full
items array for modal rendering
- Renamed website collections page to plugins (/plugins/)
- Fixed plugin modal to use <div> instead of <pre> for proper styling
- Updated README.md featured section from Collections to Plugins
### Documentation & CI
- Updated CONTRIBUTING.md, AGENTS.md, copilot-instructions.md, PR template
- Updated CI workflows to validate plugins instead of collections
- Replaced docs/README.collections.md with docs/README.plugins.md
### Cleanup
- Removed eng/validate-collections.mjs, eng/create-collection.mjs,
eng/collection-to-plugin.mjs
- Removed entire collections/ directory (41 .collection.yml + .md files)
- Removed parseCollectionYaml from yaml-parser.mjs
- Removed COLLECTIONS_DIR from constants.mjs
Closes#711
- Introduced hooks to enable automated workflows triggered by specific events during GitHub Copilot sessions.
- Added documentation for hooks in AGENTS.md and README.md.
- Created a new directory structure for hooks, including README.md and hooks.json files.
- Implemented two example hooks: Session Auto-Commit and Session Logger.
- Developed scripts for logging session events and auto-committing changes.
- Enhanced validation and parsing for hook metadata.
- Updated build and validation scripts to accommodate new hooks functionality.
- 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:

* 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
* Migrating chat modes to agents now that's been released to stable
* Fixing collections
* Fixing names of agents
* Formatting
* name too long
* Escaping C# agent name
