Pull request overview
Adds support in the test agent runner for an opt-in environment variable (NO_SKILLS) to start a Copilot session without loading any skill directories, enabling runs that don’t rely on output/skills.
Changes:
- Read
process.env.NO_SKILLSwhen creating a session. - When set, pass an empty
skillDirectoriesarray toclient.createSession(...)instead of the default skills directory.
