Add a `copilot` agent so `container-use config agent copilot` configures the GitHub Copilot CLI the same way the existing agents do. The agent implements the ConfigurableAgent interface and: - merges the container-use MCP server into ~/.copilot/mcp-config.json, preserving any other servers already configured there - writes the container-use guidance into .github/copilot-instructions.md, the repo-level custom instructions file Copilot reads It is registered in the agent selector switch and the interactive picker alongside Claude, Cursor, Goose, Codex, and Amazon Q. Copilot CLI runs on Linux, macOS, and Windows, so the agent is offered on all platforms. Relates to dagger#159 Signed-off-by: anxkhn <anxkhn@users.noreply.github.com>

copilotagent socontainer-use config agent copilot(aliascu config agent copilot) configures the GitHub Copilot CLI the same way the existing agents do. Today Copilot is only covered by hand-written MCP docs; this wires it into the same flow as Claude, Cursor, Goose, Codex, and Amazon Q.How
New
ConfigureCopilotimplements the existingConfigurableAgentinterface:editMcpConfig()merges the container-use server into~/.copilot/mcp-config.json(the user-level config the Copilot CLI reads). It merges into the existingmcpServersmap so other servers the user already has, including remote ones, are preserved.editRules()writes the container-use guidance into.github/copilot-instructions.md, Copilot's repo-level custom-instructions file, reusing the shared marker-merge helper so it is idempotent and non-destructive.The agent is registered in the
selectAgentfactory and the interactive picker. Copilot CLI runs on Linux, macOS, and Windows, so it is offered on all platforms.Testing (on this machine, copilot v1.0.65)
