CLI violates instructions by ignoring mandatory Microsoft cpp language server (LSP) usage

[victorseiculescugraitec-cmd]

Describe the bug

Copilot CLI used grep/glob/raw search even though:

LSP was available
LSP would clearly have been sufficient

The model did not check for LSP availability
The model acknowledged the rule but still violated it.

Note 1: I'm using the cpp language server (https://github.com/microsoft/cpp-language-server).
Note 2: I've tried with many models (GPT-5 mini, Claude Sonnet 4.6, Claude Opus 4.6), but the output was always the same

Affected version

GitHub Copilot CLI 1.0.54.
