Additional notes for reviewers

MegaLinter aggregates 100+ linters covering 69+ languages, 23+ formats and 21+ tooling formats.

The plugin lives at the repository root and ships:

• 4 skills under skills/ (megalinter, megalinter-setup, megalinter-check, megalinter-fix), auto-discovered per Agent Plugins 1.0
• 3 sub-agents (megalinter-watcher, megalinter-runner, megalinter-fixer)

Manifests: a root plugin.json conforming to Agent Plugins 1.0, with no extra top-level keys.

Updated since the first submission, after the Copilot portability review in this issue:

• The 3 sub-agents now ship to Copilot clients as com.github.copilot/agents/.agent.md. They were previously declared only in the Claude Code and Cursor manifests, which Copilot does not read, so Copilot loaded none of them. They are generated from the Claude Code definitions, and CI fails if the two drift.
• megalinter-setup no longer infers the install mode from skill naming, since no platform exposes a skill's origin: it reads the filesystem and asks the user when that is ambiguous. Its manual Copilot instructions now use the required .agent.md suffix in .github/agents/, and drop the model override that is not a Copilot model id.
• The skills' frontmatter key licence is corrected to license.
• CI now loads this repository as an external plugin in the GitHub Copilot CLI (copilot --plugin-dir . plugins list --json) and asserts it is accepted with no manifest error. It runs offline, with no marketplace and no authentication.

No API key, credentials, or network service are required. The skills drive the public mega-linter-runner npm package and the MegaLinter Docker image.
