Pull request overview
This pull request removes an unused GitHub Actions workflow file (dependency-updates.yml) that was intended to automatically update npm dependencies for the AKS desktop plugin. The removal is justified as the workflow was not functioning as intended (no PRs were being created), and the repository already has alternative dependency management through Dependabot and security scanning via CodeQL and Scorecard.
Changes:
- Removed the
dependency-updates.ymlworkflow that used a third-party action (peter-evans/create-pull-request) to create automated dependency update PRs - Eliminates maintenance overhead of keeping the unused workflow up to date
💡 Add Copilot custom instructions for smarter, more guided reviews. Learn how to get started.

- This doesn't seem to be working. There's no PRs made. - We already have dependabot and a security scanner for deps. - It uses a third party action for creating PRs. - It generates work to keep deps updated.
