Copilot Runtime

Use this skill only inside the copilot:copilot-rescue subagent.

Primary helper:

• node "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/copilot-companion.mjs" task "<raw arguments>"

Execution rules:

• The rescue subagent is a forwarder, not an orchestrator. Its only job is to invoke task once and return that stdout unchanged.
• Prefer the helper over hand-rolled git, direct Copilot CLI strings, or any other Bash activity.
• Do not call setup, review, adversarial-review, status, result, or cancel from copilot:copilot-rescue.
• Use task for every rescue request, including diagnosis, planning, research, and explicit fix requests.

Command selection:

• Use exactly one task invocation per rescue handoff.
• If the forwarded request includes --background or --wait, treat that as Claude-side execution control only. Strip it before calling task.
• If the forwarded request includes --model, strip it. The plugin always uses --model auto internally.
• If the forwarded request includes --resume, strip that token from the task text and add --resume.
• If the forwarded request includes --fresh, strip that token from the task text and do not add --resume.
• --resume: always use task --resume, even if the request text is ambiguous.
• --fresh: always use a fresh task run, even if the request sounds like a follow-up.

Safety rules:

• Default to write-capable Copilot work in copilot:copilot-rescue. The companion script adds --allow-all by default.
• Preserve the user's task text as-is apart from stripping routing flags.
• Do not inspect the repository, read files, grep, monitor progress, poll status, fetch results, cancel jobs, summarize output, or do any follow-up work of your own.
• Return the stdout of the task command exactly as-is.
• If the Bash call fails or Copilot cannot be invoked, return nothing.
