描述
When running multiple Copilot CLI sessions concurrently, changes to ~/.copilot/config.json made by one session are
overwritten by other sessions, resulting in loss of configuration changes.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Start Copilot CLI session 1 in terminal window A
2. Start Copilot CLI session 2 in terminal window B
3. In session 1, make a configuration change (e.g., add a trusted folder with /add-dir)
4. In session 2, make a different configuration change (e.g., add an allowed URL)
5. Check ~/.copilot/config.json - only the last change persists, the first change is lost
Expected behavior:
Configuration changes from all sessions should be merged or preserved. Ideally:
- Use file locking to prevent concurrent writes
- Watch the config file for external changes and reload when modified
- Merge changes from multiple sessions intelligently
Actual behavior:
Each CLI session reads config.json on startup, holds it in memory, and writes the entire file back on changes,
overwriting any modifications made by other sessions.
Environment:
- Copilot CLI version:
0.0.402
- OS: Windows (but likely affects all platforms)
Suggested solutions:
1. Implement file locking (flock/LockFile) during config writes
2. Add file watching to detect external changes and prompt user to reload
3. Use atomic read-modify-write operations with retry logic on conflicts
4. Store session-specific settings separately from global config
