説明
Describe the bug
The built-in research subagent prompt tells the agent to call github/get_me first, but the GitHub MCP server exposed in the same CLI session does not provide that tool. With reasoning display enabled, the subagent visibly starts by trying to reconcile the mismatch and leaks scratchpad text like:
**Resolving function conflicts** I see that I need to call the GitHub function "get_me" first, according to the subagent instructions. However, it looks like there are only five listed GitHub functions...
This appears to be a packaged agent/tool mismatch: the built-in research-agent instructions reference an older or differently named GitHub MCP tool.
Affected version
1.0.83-3 on Linux x64.
Local evidence
Packaged agent definition:
~/.copilot/pkg/linux-x64/1.0.83-3/definitions/research.agent.yaml
Relevant prompt section:
## Critical: Work Autonomously
You work completely autonomously:
- Call `github/get_me` first to understand the user's org and identity context
The current GitHub MCP server visible to the agent exposes only these tools:
github-mcp-server-get_copilot_space
github-mcp-server-get_file_contents
github-mcp-server-list_copilot_spaces
github-mcp-server-search_code
github-mcp-server-search_users
There is no github/get_me or equivalent identity/profile tool in the available GitHub tool definitions.
Expected behavior
The built-in research-agent prompt should only instruct the subagent to call tools that are actually available in the packaged/default GitHub MCP server, or it should use the current tool namespace/name. If user identity context is unavailable, the prompt should not require a nonexistent first call.
Actual behavior
The research subagent receives an instruction to call github/get_me, cannot find the tool among the available GitHub MCP tools, and starts with visible conflict-resolution reasoning when reasoning display is enabled.
Related issues
Possibly related, but not exact:
- #4076: built-in research agent MCP/tool configurability
- #2630: subagent MCP tool availability in custom-agent / prompt contexts
- #4604:
get_mewith user-configured GitHub MCP auth/token injection
This issue is specifically about the packaged built-in research.agent.yaml prompt referencing github/get_me when the available built-in GitHub MCP tool list does not include it.

調査の方向性
~/.copilot/pkg/linux-x64/1.0.83-3/definitions/research.agent.yaml を調査し、その github/get_me instruction を一覧にある GitHub MCP tools と比較します。パッケージ化された research-agent prompt が利用できない identity tool を要求しなくなっているか、利用可能な代替を指定していれば完了です。reasoning display を有効にして research subagent を実行し、確認してください。
