Add friendly names for execution_subagent, file_glob_search, read_skill

[Copilot]

Three tools from Continue (VS Code chat provider) were showing as "Unknown" in the UI.

• Added entries to src/toolNames.json:
  • execution_subagent → "Execution Subagent" (near search_subagent)
  • file_glob_search → "File Glob Search" (near glob)
  • read_skill → "Read Skill" (near skill)

These are non-MCP tools, so they use plain Title Case per existing convention.

Warning

Firewall rules blocked me from connecting to one or more addresses (expand for details)

I tried to connect to the following addresses, but was blocked by firewall rules:

• teststorage.blob.core.windows.net
  • Triggering command: /opt/hostedtoolcache/node/20.20.1/x64/bin/node /opt/hostedtoolcache/node/20.20.1/x64/bin/node --require ./out/test/unit/vscode-shim-register.js --test-force-exit /home/REDACTED/work/github-copilot-token-usage/github-copilot-token-usage/out/test/unit/backend-blobUploadService.test.js (dns block)

If you need me to access, download, or install something from one of these locations, you can either:

• Configure Actions setup steps to set up my environment, which run before the firewall is enabled
• Add the appropriate URLs or hosts to the custom allowlist in this repository's Copilot coding agent settings (admins only)

Comments on the Issue (you are @copilot in this section)

@rajbos Note for Copilot: these are coming through my use of Continue, a new chat option for VS Code that I am working to implement. Not sure if those should have their own category or prefix or something. Ideas?

Custom agent used: Tool Names - Add Missing Friendly Names
Add friendly display names for unknown MCP and VS Code tools detected in session logs. Handles tool name mapping in src/toolNames.json.
