Plugin update fails with "no source information" for GitHub-installed plugins #1290
Plugins installed from a GitHub repository using /plugin install owner/repo:plugin-name don't store source information, causing /plugin update to fail with "has no source information and cannot be updated".
Affected version
GitHub Copilot CLI 0.0.402
Steps to reproduce the behavior
Install a plugin from GitHub: /plugin install ViktorHofer/skills:msbuild-skills
Verify installation: /plugin list shows msbuild-skills v1.1.0
Try to update: /plugin update msbuild-skills
See error: Failed to update plugin: Plugin "msbuild-skills" has no source information and cannot be updated
Expected behavior
Plugins installed from GitHub should store the source repository information so that /plugin update can fetch the latest version.
Additional context
OS: Windows
Shell: PowerShell
The only workaround is to uninstall and reinstall the plugin
