Issue Summary:
The GitHub Copilot CLI package (@githubnext/github-copilot-cli) version 0.1.35, when installed and queried for its version using --version, incorrectly reports version 0.1.33. This discrepancy persists despite thorough troubleshooting and confirmation that version 0.1.35 is indeed installed.

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Install @githubnext/github-copilot-cli version 0.1.35 globally using npm.
2. Run the command /usr/lib/node_modules/@githubnext/github-copilot-cli/cli.js --version.
3. Observe that the output is 0.1.33 instead of the expected 0.1.35.

Troubleshooting Steps:

• Cleared npm cache using npm cache clean --force.
• Uninstalled and reinstalled @githubnext/[email protected].
• Verified the installation in the npm directory (/usr/lib/node_modules/@githubnext/github-copilot-cli) and confirmed package.json shows version 0.1.35.
• Directly executed cli.js with Node and inspected the script, which revealed the hardcoded version string 0.1.33.

Expected Behavior:
The command should return the actual installed version of the package, 0.1.35.

Actual Behavior:
The output is 0.1.33, indicating a mismatch between the installed version and the version reported by the script.

Same issue here regarding the versioning and the 404 errors.

[rsmets]

Apparently, the new gh cli has copilot support baked in, but I can not find any reference to that other than a mention on this thread.

[rsmets]

Ah nevermind, find info on how to use with the gh cli. https://github.com/orgs/community/discussions/86354#discussioncomment-8083321
