Describe the bug
Custom subagents cannot more see and access mcp tools. This was previously working but downgrading now does not work anyway.
MCP tools are still accessible from top-level agent.
Copilot opinion: the issue is related to the deferred loading of mcp tools.
Affected version
GitHub Copilot CLI 1.0.62 (and also previous versions)
Steps to reproduce the behavior
Add an MCP server (any)
Create a custom subagent in ~/.copilot/agents, allow it to access all tools
Ask copilot to invoke the custom subagent and use the MCP server
Additional context
Operating system: Windows 11
CPU architecture: x86_64
Terminal emulator: PowerShell 7.6.2
