Tab Reference

copilot-setup organizes your Copilot CLI configuration into 11 tabs, each focused on a specific area. Every tab displays a data table on the left and a detail pane on the right — select any row to see its full details.

Press / in any tab to open the filter bar and narrow results by keyword.
