Copilot Chat v0.43: Agent Instructions Discovery Fix
Copilot Chat now discovers AGENTS.md and CLAUDE.md files at workspace roots as agent instructions, fixing a gap where only copilot-instructions.md was being found.
TL;DR
- Now discovers AGENTS.md and CLAUDE.md at workspace roots as agent instructions
- Previously only found copilot-instructions.md via the custom instructions service
- Scans workspace roots to include all agent instruction files
Fixed
- Agent instructions discovery — AGENTS.md and CLAUDE.md at workspace roots are now recognized as agent instructions, not just copilot-instructions.md
