Pull request overview
Adds reviewer-focused completeness checks to .github/copilot-instructions.md so Copilot-driven reviews consistently cross-reference the repo’s pre-merge checklist for MCP tool PRs (tool registration, docs, prompts, evaluator score, and build-warning-as-error expectations).
Changes:
- Introduces a new “Code Review Guidelines” section for MCP tool PR completeness checks.
- Links the guidance to the repository’s PR pre-merge checklist for consistency.
