Problem
The Copilot CLI log parser was not extracting tool information from the new debug log format introduced in v0.0.343. This resulted in an empty "Available Tools" section in workflow step summaries, even though tools were being used successfully.
Example from workflow run 18608814247:
The tools section was empty despite 54 tools being available and used during execution.
Root Cause
The new Copilot CLI uses a different debug log format where tools are logged in a
[DEBUG] Tools:section with OpenAI function format:The existing
parseDebugLogFormatfunction was creating an empty tools array as a placeholder instead of extracting the actual tool definitions.Solution
