Description
## Motivation
Link to the gh-aw PR: github/gh-aw#45082 — Update GitHub MCP toolsets mapping: add `issue_dependency_read` and `issue_dependency_write` to the `issues` toolset.
## Proposed test
- **Workflow file**: `test-copilot-mcp-issue-dependency-tools.md`
- **Trigger**: `workflow_dispatch`
- **Engine**: copilot
- **Safe output**: `add-comment`
- **Variant**: standard
## Minimal test prompt sketch
Ask the agent to use the GitHub MCP server to read the dependencies of a specific issue in `githubnext/gh-aw-test` (using `issue_dependency_read`), then post an `add-comment` safe output with the dependency count. This exercises that `issue_dependency_read` is correctly registered under the `issues` toolset and accessible via the MCP gateway.
## New fixtures or secrets needed
None — `githubnext/gh-aw-test` supports issue dependencies natively. A long-lived issue with known dependencies could serve as the fixture, or the test can use `issue_dependency_read` on any issue and assert a non-error response.
## Notes
The existing `test-copilot-mcp.md` tests general MCP access but does not exercise issue-dependency tools specifically. `test-copilot-link-sub-issue.md` covers sub-issues, not dependency read/write. Adding this test closes the regression gap introduced by PR #45082.

Research direction
Start with the proposed test file, test-copilot-mcp-issue-dependency-tools.md, and compare its structure with test-copilot-mcp.md and test-copilot-link-sub-issue.md. Run it through workflow_dispatch using the copilot engine. Done means the agent reads issue dependencies through issue_dependency_read and posts an add-comment safe output containing the dependency count without an MCP error.
