Implements comprehensive telemetry tracking for the Profiler feature: - Session lifecycle events: - ProfilerSessionCreated: When a new session is created with template - ProfilerSessionStarted: When profiling begins - ProfilerSessionPaused: When session is paused (includes event count) - ProfilerSessionResumed: When session is resumed - ProfilerSessionStopped: When session is stopped (includes event count) - ProfilerSessionClosed: When webview is closed (tracks if session was stopped) - User interaction events: - ProfilerClearData: When events are cleared (includes count before clear) - ProfilerAutoScrollToggled: When auto-scroll is enabled/disabled - Additional actions for future features: - ProfilerFilterApplied/Cleared: For filtering feature - ProfilerXelFileOpened: For XEL file support - ProfilerExportCsv: For CSV export feature Added: - profilerTelemetry.ts: Centralized telemetry service with typed properties - TelemetryViews.Profiler: New telemetry view enum value - 13 new TelemetryActions for profiler-specific events
- Added 'trigger' parameter to onExportToCsv callback to distinguish between manual export (toolbar button) and close prompt export - Send ProfilerExportCsv telemetry after successful export with: - rowCount: number of rows exported - exportTrigger: 'manual' or 'closePrompt' - Integrated with merged profiler_export branch

- Moved exportToCsv from ProfilerSelectedEventDetails to ProfilerReducers (exportToCsv is a reducer action, not an event property) - Fixed profiler.tsx to pass totalEventCount and onExportToCsv to ProfilerToolbar instead of ProfilerFilterDialog - Build now compiles without errors

…specification, tasks, and task-to-issues conversion - Implemented speckit.constitution.agent for managing project constitution updates and synchronization. - Created speckit.implement.agent to execute implementation plans based on defined tasks. - Developed speckit.plan.agent to facilitate the planning workflow and generate design artifacts. - Added speckit.specify.agent for creating and updating feature specifications from natural language descriptions. - Introduced speckit.tasks.agent to generate actionable, dependency-ordered task lists from design artifacts. - Implemented speckit.taskstoissues.agent to convert tasks into GitHub issues based on existing design documents. - Created prompts for each agent to streamline user interactions and ensure proper execution flow.
- Created agent-file-template.md for project development guidelines. - Added checklist-template.md for feature-specific checklists. - Introduced plan-template.md for implementation planning of features. - Developed spec-template.md for detailed feature specifications. - Established tasks-template.md for organizing tasks related to feature implementation.

Description
This PR adds 4 read-only Copilot Agent Tools that allow users to query SQL Server Profiler (XEvent) data using natural language.
mssql_profiler_list_sessions Discover active XEvent profiler sessions
mssql_profiler_get_session_summary Get session statistics (event counts, top databases, top event types)
mssql_profiler_query_events Filter and sort profiler events by duration, database, event type
mssql_profiler_get_event_detail Inspect full details of a specific event
How to Use
Start a Profiler session from Object Explorer (right-click server → Launch Profiler)
Open Copilot Chat in Agent mode
Try prompts like:
"What XEvent sessions are running?"
"Show me a summary of my profiler session"
"Find the slowest queries in the profiler"
"Show events with duration greater than 1000 microseconds"
Implementation Approach
This feature was developed using the SpecKit workflow (/speckit.specify → /speckit.plan → /speckit.tasks → /speckit.implement), which generated:
Feature specification with user stories and acceptance criteria
Technical design with data models and API contracts
50+ implementation tasks organized by user story
Key learnings documented in the spec for future reference:
Tools require dual registration (package.json + mainController.ts)
Use "XEvent" terminology for LLM discoverability
Show session names (not IDs) in confirmation dialogs
