Pull request overview
This PR updates Copilot CLI prompt construction to exclude the VS Code “customizations index” prompt reference from the generated prompt context (references/attachments), preventing copilot-instructions–derived customizations from being sent as regular context.
Changes:
- Add a new prompt-variable predicate/constant for identifying the customizations index reference (
vscode.customizations.index). - Filter out the customizations index reference when constructing Copilot CLI prompt references/attachments.
- Add a unit test ensuring the customizations index is excluded while normal file references remain included.
