`meta-agentic-project-scaffold` is a VS Code agent but ships to the Copilot CLI and desktop app

Hi team,

Opening this because I noticed this while working with a customer on a related issue. The awesome-copilot plugin (v1.1.0) bundles one agent, meta-agentic-project-scaffold, whose content is written for VS Code.

• the tool list is entirely VS Code tool names (vscodeAPI, openSimpleBrowser, runNotebooks, readCellOutput, terminalSelection, activePullRequest, copilotCodingAgent)
• the prompt instructs the agent to return vscode-insiders install links
• it pins model: "GPT-4.1", overriding the model the user selected

It is nonetheless packaged and surfaced as a Copilot agent. CI emits it to com.github.copilot/agents/, and installing the plugin puts "Meta Agentic Project Scaffold" in the agent picker of both the Copilot CLI (origin plugin) and the desktop app, where it can be selected and run.

Related: #610 flagged this same file for activePullRequest, copilotCodingAgent, and the renamed changes tool. It was closed as completed on 2026-03-09.

Maybe refresh the tool names, and add target: vscode to declare the intended environment? Worth flagging that target currently has no effect in the Copilot CLI or desktop app, so it will not remove the agent from those pickers on its own — I have filed that separately against github/copilot-cli in https://github.com/github/copilot-cli/issues/4806.
