## Title

    Proposed fix: [Copilot Chat → cloud agent delegation] 'Cloud agent is not authorized to run on this repository' (401) / 'Cloud agent is not enabled for this repository' (403) / base-branch 422

## Body

    Recommended action: Enable the coding agent at <host>/settings/copilot/coding_agent (or ask an org admin), ensure push access with the active account, push the base branch (or an initial commit) and check rulesets.
    
    Option: Enable the coding agent at <host>/settings/copilot/coding_agent (or ask an org admin), ensure push access with the active account, push the base branch (or an initial commit) and check rulesets. [evidence: official_recommended_action]
    Applies when: Delegating a task to the Copilot cloud agent from VS Code chat
    Steps:
    1. Check the active GitHub account in VS Code has push access
    2. Enable Copilot coding agent for the repo/org
    3. git push the base branch; for empty repos push an initial commit
    4. Review repository rulesets that block PR creation
    Expected: The error no longer appears.
