Research direction

Start with .github/workflows/test-copilot-missing-tool.md and inspect the failed run 34736245260. Read debug.md and .github/skills/agentic-workflows/SKILL.md for the debugging procedure, then identify why the intentionally unavailable tool is treated as a missing required tool. Done means the workflow behaves as intended and the test run no longer fails unexpectedly.
