Incorrect MCP servers settings location in configure-mcp-servers.md #45011
Description
What article on docs.github.com is affected?
https://docs.github.com/en/copilot/how-tos/copilot-on-github/customize-copilot/configure-mcp-servers
What part(s) of the article would you like to see updated?
The "Adding an MCP configuration to your repository" and "Customizing the built-in GitHub MCP server" sections instruct users to go to repo Settings > Copilot, and click a separate MCP servers sidebar item. In the current UI, there is no such separate item — the "Model Context Protocol (MCP)" configuration section is actually found under Copilot > Cloud Agent.
Additional information
Confirmed with a colleague who located the setting under Settings > Copilot > Cloud Agent while trying to follow the doc's instructions.
