Stop stripping namespace prefixes when converting commands to Copilot skills. `workflows:plan` now becomes `workflows-plan` instead of just `plan`, avoiding clashes with Copilot's own features in the chat UI. Also updates slash command references in body text to match: `/workflows:plan` → `/workflows-plan`. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

# Copilot Skill Naming: Preserve Namespace
|
|
|
|
## What We're Building
|
|
|
|
Change the Copilot converter to preserve command namespaces when converting commands to skills. Currently `workflows:plan` flattens to `plan`, which is too generic and clashes with Copilot's own features in the chat suggestion UI.
|
|
|
|
## Why This Approach
|
|
|
|
The `flattenCommandName` function strips everything before the last colon, producing names like `plan`, `review`, `work` that are too generic for Copilot's skill discovery UI. Replacing colons with hyphens (`workflows:plan` -> `workflows-plan`) preserves context while staying within valid filename characters.
|
|
|
|
## Key Decisions
|
|
|
|
- **Replace colons with hyphens** instead of stripping the prefix: `workflows:plan` -> `workflows-plan`
|
|
- **Copilot only** — other converters (Cursor, Droid, etc.) keep their current flattening behavior
|
|
- **Content transformation too** — slash command references in body text also use hyphens: `/workflows:plan` -> `/workflows-plan`
|
|
|
|
## Changes Required
|
|
|
|
1. `src/converters/claude-to-copilot.ts` — change `flattenCommandName` to replace colons with hyphens
|
|
2. `src/converters/claude-to-copilot.ts` — update `transformContentForCopilot` slash command rewriting
|
|
3. `tests/copilot-converter.test.ts` — update affected tests
|
|
|
|
## Next Steps
|
|
|
|
-> Implement directly (small, well-scoped change)
