説明
### Describe the feature or problem you'd like to solve
Copilot CLI currently supports custom agents from .github/agents, but there is no clear, concise way to explicitly invoke a specific agent in the middle of a prompt while preserving the current conversation context and accumulated results. Today, users can select an agent before a task or rely on automatic delegation. However, complex workflows often require intentionally switching between specialized agents during a single task. For example, I may want to: Analyze a codebase using the default agent. Pass the findings to a custom architecture-review agent. Pass the review results to a migration-planning agent. Generate implementation tasks using another specialized agent. The lack of an explicit inline invocation mechanism makes these multi-agent workflows harder to express, less predictable, and more dependent on model inference.
### Proposed solution
Add inline agent invocation syntax that allows users to explicitly delegate part of a workflow to a named custom agent while preserving prior context and generated artifacts.
### Example prompts or workflows
// assuming that '$' would be a trigger to call existing agents selection, like '@' does for files
> Analyze the repository and identify technical debt.
>
> $agent: architecture-review
> Review the findings and propose architectural improvements.
>
> $agent: migration-planner
> Create a phased migration plan based on the review.
### Additional context
Custom agents are one of the most powerful extensibility features in Copilot CLI. Explicit agent invocation would make agent-based workflows easier to discover, document, reproduce, and share among team members.
It would also reduce ambiguity around whether Copilot has actually used a particular custom agent or simply attempted to perform the task itself. For advanced users who invest in creating specialized agents, deterministic invocation would significantly improve confidence and workflow predictability.

調査の方向性
Issue では .github/agents と既存の custom-agent 選択を出発点として挙げています。プロンプトがどのようにエージェントを選択するか、また会話コンテキストと生成されたアーティファクトがどのように保持されるかを調査してください。名前付きエージェントを呼び出し、その結果を連鎖させるためのインライン構文を定義して検証し、完了の確認はサンプルワークフローが予測どおりに動作することで行います。
