install/bootstrap.ps1

What Bootstrap Does

• Creates a canonical path at ~/.copilot-resources
• Links default discovery locations back to this repository
• Merges only the managed Copilot-related VS Code settings into the user settings file
• Writes a managed Copilot CLI environment fragment and sources it from the shell or PowerShell profile
• Writes a local install-state file outside the repository

Optional Settings

Bootstrap renders and merges the managed keys from config/vscode/settings.template.jsonc into the user settings file. Existing unmanaged VS Code settings are preserved, and the merge updates the managed keys in place so existing JSONC comments and surrounding formatting stay intact where possible.

Bootstrap also writes a managed Copilot CLI environment file into the local state directory and adds a small managed source block to the active shell or PowerShell profile instead of replacing the whole profile.
