Summary

Update the agentic-ide setup docs to use Serena's supported mode-based configuration instead of removed flags, and make the Copilot CLI setup path explicitly register Copilot rather than implying a Claude-only flow.

Changes

  • remove deprecated --disable-memories / --disable-onboarding references
  • document ~/.serena/serena_config.yml with base_modes: [no-memories]
  • simplify the Copilot setup flow to copilot mcp add
  • bump the agentic-ide plugin versions in both manifests

Testing

  • .github/scripts/validate-plugins.sh

Closes #147

Serena 1.2.0 removed the old disable-memory flags, so the setup docs needed to point at the supported config model. The Copilot-side flow also needed to stop implying a Claude-style setup path and instead show the Copilot registration flow directly.

* remove deprecated Serena flags from both setup docs
* document ~/.serena/serena_config.yml base_modes: [no-memories]
* simplify the Copilot setup command to the Copilot CLI registration path
* bump agentic-ide plugin versions to 1.0.5

Pull request overview

Updates the agentic-ide setup documentation to reflect Serena’s post-1.2.0 mode-based configuration (replacing removed CLI flags) and aligns the Copilot CLI registration flow around copilot mcp add. Also bumps the plugin version in both Claude and Copilot plugin manifests.

Changes:

  • Replace deprecated Serena flags (--disable-memories, --disable-onboarding) with ~/.serena/serena_config.yml using base_modes: [no-memories].
  • Simplify Copilot CLI MCP registration examples (and remove the alternate JSON config examples).
  • Bump agentic-ide plugin versions to 1.0.5 in both manifests.

Or add it to `~/.copilot/mcp-config.json`:

```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"semgrep": {
"type": "stdio",
"command": "semgrep-mcp",
"args": [],
"tools": ["*"],
"env": {}
}
}
}
```

Optional: add `SEMGREP_APP_TOKEN` to `env` to enable `semgrep_findings` (pulls from Semgrep AppSec Platform). Generate at <https://semgrep.dev/orgs/-/settings/tokens>. All local-scan tools work without it.
