Update GitHub Copilot CLI from 0.0.373 to 0.0.374

[Copilot]

Updates the default Copilot CLI version to 0.0.374 (released 2026-01-02). This version contains only cosmetic changes to help output format—no functional changes, API changes, or breaking changes.

Changes

• Constants: Updated DefaultCopilotVersion from 0.0.373 to 0.0.374
• Tests: Updated version expectations in constants_test.go and copilot_installer_test.go
• Documentation: Updated version references in AGENTS.md, specs/go-type-patterns.md, and specs/layout.md
• Workflows: Recompiled 86 workflow .lock.yml files to reference new version

Version Details

• Previous: 0.0.373 (2025-12-30) → New: 0.0.374 (2026-01-02)
• Change: Help output reorganized—inline examples/topics moved to copilot help (topic) subcommands
• Impact: All functionality preserved, just different presentation
• Risk: Low—no command flags, models, or behavior changed

Example Change

Workflow lock files now install 0.0.374:

- name: Install GitHub Copilot CLI
  run: |
    # Execute the installer with the specified version
    export VERSION=0.0.374 && sudo bash /tmp/copilot-install.sh

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:

• https://api.github.com/user
  • Triggering command: /usr/bin/gh gh api user --jq .login -json GO111MODULE 0.1-go1.25.0.linGOMODCACHE GOINSECURE GOMOD GOMODCACHE go env -json GO111MODULE 0.1-go1.25.0.linux-amd64/bin/go GOINSECURE GOMOD GOMODCACHE go (http 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)

Changes Detected

CLI Help Output Changes

Breaking/UI Changes:

• The main copilot --help output no longer displays inline "Help Topics" and "Examples" sections
• Help content was reduced from ~140 lines to ~82 lines (58 lines removed)
• The removed sections included:
  • Help Topics list (config, commands, environment, logging, permissions)
  • Usage examples (12 different examples showing common CLI patterns)

Functionality Preserved:

• All help content remains accessible via copilot help (topic) subcommand
• Help topics still work: copilot help config, copilot help environment, etc.
• No changes detected to command-line flags or options
• No changes to available models or tool permissions

Impact: Low

• This appears to be a UX refinement to make the main help output more concise
• Users who need detailed help can still access it via subcommands
• No functional changes or breaking changes detected
• All command-line flags, options, and models remain unchanged

Migration Notes

Action Required: None

This is a minor update with cosmetic changes only. No breaking changes detected.

Risk Assessment

Risk Level: Low

• No API changes
• No command-line flag changes
• No model changes
• Help content remains available via subcommands
• Same functionality, different presentation

Files Updated

Updated pkg/constants/constants.go with new version and ran make recompile:

• 114 files modified (mostly .lock.yml workflow files)
• All workflow compilations successful
• No validation errors

Testing Recommendations

• Verify Copilot CLI help subcommands work as expected (copilot help config, etc.)
• Run integration tests to ensure CLI behavior unchanged
• Test interactive mode and prompt execution
