Files Modified

• pkg/constants/constants.go - Updated DefaultCopilotVersion from "0.0.385" to "0.0.387"

Next Steps

1. ✅ Updated pkg/constants/constants.go
2. ⚠️ Run make recompile to regenerate workflow files (not available in this environment)
3. Run integration tests to verify compatibility (per WARNING in constants.go)
4. Review and merge changes

Notes

• Constants Update: The version constant has been updated in this run
• Workflow Compilation: The make recompile command needs to be run to update the 52+ workflow YAML files that reference the Copilot version
• Integration Testing: The constants.go file includes a warning that upgrading Copilot CLI requires full integration test runs to ensure compatibility
• No CLI Installation Performed: Due to installation failures (exit code 254), CLI help output comparison was not performed. The analysis is based on changelog review from the official repository.

Recommendation

Proceed with the update. The changes are incremental improvements without breaking changes. The new features (ask_user tool, plan mode, /resume command) add valuable capabilities without affecting existing functionality.
