Document: cannot create external GitHub repository (out of scope)

[Copilot]

The issue requests creating a new public GitHub repository (vt-cert-panel) for user VaillerTeeter — an operation entirely outside the scope of this agent's tooling and environment constraints.

Why No Code Changes Were Made

• No repository creation API available: The GitHub MCP tools scoped to this agent are read-only (list/get workflows, commits, issues, PRs, file contents). No create_repository capability exists.
• Environment policy: This agent is restricted to making changes only within the already-cloned VaillerTeeter/HanamiRIP-CN repository. Creating a net-new repository on GitHub is explicitly out of bounds.
• Unrelated to the working repo: The request targets a completely separate repository (vt-cert-panel), not the codebase this agent operates on.

Recommended Manual Steps

Create the repository directly via GitHub CLI:

# Create the repo with README + GPL-3.0 license
gh repo create VaillerTeeter/vt-cert-panel \
  --public \
  --license gpl-3.0 \
  --add-readme

# Rename default branch from 'main' to 'master'
gh api repos/VaillerTeeter/vt-cert-panel/branches/main/rename \
  -X POST -f new_name=master

# Add an empty .gitignore
gh api repos/VaillerTeeter/vt-cert-panel/contents/.gitignore \
  -X PUT \
  -f message="Add empty .gitignore" \
  -f content="$(echo '' | base64)"
