Add copilot-setup-steps.yml for GitHub Copilot cloud environment#1034
Conversation
Configure GitHub Copilot coding agent with: - Node.js 24.11.0 (matching project mise.toml) - npm dependency caching and installation - TypeScript build step This allows Copilot to run in the cloud with proper environment setup.
Replace actions/setup-node with jdx/mise-action to ensure: - Node.js 24.11.0 is installed per mise.toml - Consistent tooling environment with local dev and CI - mise run typecheck handles both compilation and type validation
- Add [tasks.build] for tsc compilation (matches npm run build) - Add [tasks.build:watch] for watch mode (matches npm run build:watch) - Remove broken [tasks.watch] which referenced non-existent tasks - These tasks ensure mise run build/build:watch work correctly Note: [tasks.typecheck] is intentionally kept for semantic distinction (typecheck for validation, build for compilation) even though both run tsc --build
- Update Node.js prerequisite from v20.17 to v24.11.0 (matching mise.toml) - Replace broken `mise run watch` with working alternatives: - `mise run build:watch` for TypeScript compilation - `mise run start:watch` for server auto-restart - Document that these should run in separate terminals
TypeScript requires --build to come before --watch. Changed from: tsc --watch --build . Changed to: tsc --build --watch .
- Remove reference to non-existent scripts/watch.js - Update to reflect current working watch commands

Fixed broken mise task dependencies:

Why
GitHub Copilot can now run this repository in the cloud with proper environment setup. The workflow automatically runs when the file is modified to validate it works correctly.
