enabledPlugins in repository settings does not auto-install plugins on startup.
This reproduces with a built-in marketplace plugin, so it does not appear to depend
on custom marketplaces or private repositories.
Affected version
GitHub Copilot CLI 1.0.11
Steps to reproduce the behavior
- Create
.github/copilot/settings.json with:
{
"enabledPlugins": {
"workiq@copilot-plugins": true
}
}
- Restart Copilot in that repository.
- Run:
copilot plugin list
Expected behavior
workiq@copilot-plugins is installed automatically.
Actual behavior
The plugin is not installed. Running:
copilot plugin list
prints:
No plugins installed.
Use 'copilot plugin install <source>' to install a plugin
### Additional context
Manual installation works:
copilot plugin install workiq@copilot-plugins
So the plugin itself is valid; only the enabledPlugins auto-install path appears
broken.
