Verify the documented Canvas behavior, licensing, checksum, and distribution checks; the plugin is ready to accept when the required submission validation and reviewer checks are complete.

Additional notes for reviewers

Installable plugin: https://github.com/nomhiro/copilot-session-jam/tree/fb815e24917136289c5a9152da8c81f25a7d33b6/dist/copilot-session-dj

The reviewed tag includes the built local audio bundle, plugin.json, assets/preview.png, corresponding application source and build inputs, AGPL license, third-party notices, immutable upstream Strudel source links, and SHA256SUMS. The manifest sets extensions.com.github.copilot.logo to assets/preview.png. The screenshot is explicitly labeled as a fictional demo session.

This is a Canvas-only plugin using the experimental Copilot extension SDK. No API key, music service, microphone, sample download, or extra LLM call is needed. The renderer receives normalized activity counts and fixed event types, not conversation text, reasoning, commands, tool arguments, file paths, or tool outputs. Music is not a test-success classifier; only explicit root task-success events trigger the completion phrase. Playback requires an in-page click, stops on disconnect/visibility loss/audio-lease loss, and never automatically resumes.

Pre-submission checks: build and 30 Node tests passed; an isolated Copilot CLI local-marketplace install passed without using the normal user configuration; all 53 distribution checksums were checked against the staged Git blobs. Vally 0.18.0 runLint completed without lint errors and reported 0 skills (this plugin contains a Canvas, not skills). SDK provider opening/actions and live assistant/tool event delivery were exercised; less common lifecycle events have deterministic fixture coverage. Browser playback, all three presets, stop, reload silence, disconnection behavior and competing-booth rejection were exercised. Native Copilot WebView audio has not been independently verified, and other hosts require acceptance checks. These limitations are documented rather than claimed as verified.

The external-plugin route is intentional: Strudel is AGPL-3.0-or-later, and this submission does not ask to relicense it under Awesome Copilot's MIT license.
