This helps GitHub Copilot CLI users discover how to configure the Microsoft Clarity MCP Server.

The Copilot CLI config path is given only as ~/.copilot/mcp-config.json (Unix-style). For consistency with the Claude section and to reduce ambiguity for Windows users, consider explicitly labeling this as the macOS/Linux location and (if applicable) adding the Windows-equivalent path.

Suggested change
1. Open your Copilot CLI configuration file at `~/.copilot/mcp-config.json`
1. Open your Copilot CLI configuration file:
- **macOS/Linux**: `~/.copilot/mcp-config.json`
- **Windows**: `%UserProfile%\.copilot\mcp-config.json`

@GeekTrainer does mcp-config.json come by default with copilot CLI? I tried a fresh install and was unable to find it
