[Skill Bug]: Select All 'ms-azuretools.vscode-azure-github-copilot' tools clutters tools: line

[TeddMcAdams]

Preflight Checklist

• I have installed the latest version of GitHub Copilot for Azure in VS Code.
• I have checked existing resources, including using the /help command in the chat window.
• I have searched for similar issues.

Repro Steps

1. Install GitHub Copilot for Azure Extension into VSCode
2. Edit an agent.md file that has a tools: section defined
3. Click Configure Tools...
4. Select checkbox at root of GitHub Copilot for Azure tools list to select all tools
5. Click OK to save/close
6. See tools: section lists out every individual tool name
7. Compare this to 'azure-mcp/*' or search - they have a much cleaner way of selecting all tools under their sections

tools: read, edit, search, 'azure-mcp/*', ms-azuretools.vscode-azure-github-copilot/azure_get_azure_verified_module, ms-azuretools.vscode-azure-github-copilot/azure_query_azure_resource_graph, ms-azuretools.vscode-azure-github-copilot/azure_get_auth_context, ms-azuretools.vscode-azure-github-copilot/azure_set_auth_context, ms-azuretools.vscode-azure-github-copilot/azure_get_dotnet_template_tags, ms-azuretools.vscode-azure-github-copilot/azure_get_dotnet_templates_for_tag

Prompt

Expected Result

Expect something like 'ms-azuretools.vscode-azure-github-copilot/*' or similar to be added to the tools: section and for it to be recognized as wanting to utilize all tools in that section correctly.

Thanks for reporting this, @TeddMcAdams! 🙏

I've labeled this as a bug since it describes unexpected behavior, and added too-many-tools and vscode because it relates to tool count/display within the VS Code extension when "Select All" is used. The skills label was also applied since this touches skill/tool management behavior.

The team will take a look at how the tools line is populated when all tools are selected to address the clutter issue.
