Make item_number optional for add_comment safe output tool

[Copilot]

The add_comment tool required item_number even when the target could be resolved from workflow context (triggering issue/PR/discussion), causing validation errors.

Changes

• Schema updates: Removed item_number from required fields in safe_outputs_tools.json
• Resolution logic: Added explicit check for item_number before falling back to context resolution
• Test coverage: Added tests for explicit item_number with triggering target and context-based resolution

Resolution Priority

// 1. Explicit item_number (if provided)if(item.item_number!==undefined){itemNumber=item.item_number;}// 2. Discussion contextelseif(isDiscussionContext){itemNumber=context.payload?.discussion?.number;}// 3. Target resolution (issues/PRs)else{constresult=resolveTarget({...});itemNumber=result.number;}

Backward compatible - existing usage with explicit item_number continues to work.

Original prompt

Update safe output tool add_comment:

The item_number parameter must be optional (not required).

See error:

└ calling "tools/call": Invalid arguments: missing or empty 'item_number'

If the item_number is missing, empty, apply the resolution to determine the item_number from the current context.
