Research direction

No source files, tests, or entry points are identified. Start by reproducing the readiness timeout with VS Code 1.108.2, GitHub Copilot Chat 0.122.0, and the listed Remote SSH setup on Windows and Linux. Done means identifying the cause and resolving the failure so Chat becomes ready without the reported timeout.
