説明

### Describe the bug

When running Copilot CLI outside of a git repository, the same custom instruction file (e.g. AGENTS.md) is loaded twice, resulting in duplicate entries in the system prompt. This causes the custom instructions to be applied redundantly, which may affect the model's behavior and wastes tokens.

### Affected version

GitHub Copilot CLI 0.0.411.

### Steps to reproduce the behavior

1. Create AGENTS.md at the project root.

```md
# Magic number 42
```

2. Run Copilot CLI and ask a question.

```sh
copilot --model claude-sonnet-4.5 -p "Please tell me the number of custom_instructions read and the header for each custom_instruction."
```

3. Copilot CLI then reports that it found 2 custom instruction files.

```plaintext
I found **2 custom_instruction blocks** in my system prompt.

Both have the identical header:
1. `# Magic number 42`
2. `# Magic number 42`

```

### Expected behavior

Copilot CLI should load each custom instruction file only once, regardless of whether a git repository is present.

### Additional context

#### Control

As a control, running the same command inside a git repository loads the file only once.

1. Create AGENTS.md at the project root.

```md
# Magic number 42
```

2. Initialize a git repository.

```sh
git init
```

3. Run Copilot CLI and ask a question.

```sh
copilot --model claude-sonnet-4.5 -p "Please tell me the number of custom_instructions read and the header for each custom_instruction."
```

4. Copilot CLI then reports that it found only 1 custom instruction file.

```plaintext
I read **1** custom_instruction.

The header is: **# Magic number 42**
