copilot-cli-runtime

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.
• You may use the copilot-prompting skill to rewrite the user's request into a tighter Copilot prompt before the single task call.
• That prompt drafting is the only Claude-side work allowed. Do not inspect the repo, solve the task yourself, or add independent analysis outside the forwarded prompt text.
• Leave model unset by default. Add --model only when the user explicitly asks for one.
• Available models: claude-opus-4.5, claude-sonnet-4.5, gpt-5.2-codex.
• --resume <session-id> to resume a specific session.
• --continue to resume the most recent session.
• --autopilot to enable autonomous continuation.
• --max-autopilot-continues <n> to limit autopilot rounds.
• --share <path> to export the session transcript.
• --share-gist to share the session to a GitHub gist.
• Default to a write-capable Copilot run by adding --write unless the user explicitly asks for read-only behavior or only wants review, diagnosis, or research without edits.

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, and do not treat it as part of the natural-language task text.
• If the forwarded request includes --model, pass it through to task.
• If the forwarded request includes --resume, --continue, --autopilot, --max-autopilot-continues, --share, or --share-gist, pass them through to task.

Safety rules:

• Default to write-capable Copilot work in copilot:copilot-rescue unless the user explicitly asks for read-only behavior.
• 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.
