Latest Copilot CLI v1.0.22 blocks safeoutputs MCP server #25550

Description

Today we just started seeing this message in our agentic workflows under the agent / Execute GitHub Copilot CLI section:

! 2 MCP servers were blocked by policy: 'github', 'safeoutputs'

which are typically coupled with something like:

I need to call the safe-output tool directly from this conversation:

  └ Tool 'create_pull_request' does not exist.

I am not sure if this is due to a change in MCP support by copilot cli that was released today that needs to be updated in the workflows or if this is a bug in Copilot CLI. My workflows are for a private repo but let me know if there is something specific I can include to help.
