Descrição
### Describe the bug
I'm using github copilot cli with `experimental mode` enabled. I see the `Issues` and `Pull Requests` tabs in the interface but they are always greyed out regardless of the status of the current repo and branch. Here are details that might help:
* Copilot CLI version: 1.0.68
* Platform: Ubuntu (within WSL)
* Experimental mode: enabled
* gh CLI working: yes (issues and PRs listed successfully)
* Tabs configuration: enabled
* 2 github accounts configured (personal and work). Git and SSH have been configured to work with each separately:
```ini
# ~/.gitconfig
[url "git@github.com:"]
insteadOf = "https://github.com"
[url "work-ssh-alias:work-gh-org/"]
insteadOf = git@github.com:work-gh-org/
```
```ssh-config
# ~/.ssh/config
Host work-ssh-alias
User git
HostName github.com
IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_ed25519_work_key
```
* `gh` cli is always be setup to auth against the correct account when working within a repo and works as expected when listing issues and PRs
### Affected version
GitHub Copilot CLI 1.0.68.
### Steps to reproduce the behavior
_No response_
### Expected behavior
I expect to see the Issues and PRs tabs active when copilot is within a github repo.
### Additional context
Additional context generated via copilot-cli when attempting to debug the issue:
----
Environment:
• Copilot CLI version: 1.0.68
• Platform: Linux
• Experimental mode: enabled
Issue:
The Issues and Pull Requests tabs display as inactive (greyed out) in the experimental tabbed interface, despite the feature being properly configured and functional.
Verification Steps Completed:
• ✅ Tabs are enabled in ~/.copilot/settings.json ( "enabled": true )
• ✅ Running Copilot CLI inside a valid Git repository with remote on GitHub
• ✅ gh CLI is authenticated and can successfully list issues: gh issue list -R / returns open issues
• ✅ gh CLI can successfully list pull requests: gh pr list -R / returns open pull requests
• ✅ Correct GitHub account is set as active with appropriate token scopes ( repo , read:org , workflow )
• ✅ Restarting the Copilot CLI session does not resolve the issue
Expected Behavior:
The Issues and Pull Requests tabs should be active and allow browsing repository issues and PRs, as documented in the Copilot CLI help.
Actual Behavior:
The tabs remain inactive/greyed out and appear non-functional, even though the underlying gh CLI infrastructure is working correctly and can retrieve the data that would populate these tabs.
Guia de contribuição
Direção de pesquisa
Comece com ~/.copilot/settings.json e reproduza a interface experimental com abas dentro de um repositório GitHub; verifique os comandos relatados `gh issue list` e `gh pr list` em relação ao repositório e à conta atuais. O payload não nomeia nenhum arquivo-fonte nem teste, portanto rastreie o ponto de entrada da CLI que controla a disponibilidade das abas e confirme que as abas se tornam ativas em um repositório válido.
