- targets-matrix.md, targets.md: document the expanded Copilot harness auto-detection signals added in #1440. The copilot target is now activated by .github/instructions/, .github/agents/, .github/prompts/, or .github/hooks/ directories in addition to the monolithic .github/copilot-instructions.md file. - install-mcp-servers.md: document that the registry: URL field on individual MCP dependency entries is now honored during install (#1443). Previously stored but ignored (emitting a 'not yet applied' warning). Added example showing the per-dep custom registry form and the equivalent --registry CLI flag.

Pull request overview
This PR updates the Starlight docs to reflect two recently-merged user-facing behaviors: expanded GitHub Copilot harness auto-detection signals and honoring per-dependency registry: URLs during MCP install.
Changes:
- Document Copilot target auto-detection via file-based
.github/*signal directories in addition to the monolithic.github/copilot-instructions.md. - Update the CLI
apm targetsdocs to reflect the expanded Copilot detection signals. - Document per-dependency
registry:URL handling for MCP dependencies, including a--registryexample.
