* use cmake presets instead of cmake settings This change uses a cmake presets file in an effort allow for agentic AI to better switch between project settings. It replaces the old CMakeSettings.json for the more flexible CMakePresets.json. * Update GitHub Actions workflows to use CMake presets (#1223) * Initial plan * Update GitHub Actions to use CMake presets for compilers workflow Co-authored-by: carsonRadtke <[email protected]> --------- Co-authored-by: copilot-swe-agent[bot] <[email protected]> Co-authored-by: carsonRadtke <[email protected]> * remove unused cmake options * address PR feedback from copilot * fix build break --------- Co-authored-by: Copilot <[email protected]>

Migrates GitHub Actions workflows from manual CMake configuration to CMake presets defined in
CMakePresets.json, enabling centralized build configuration management for improved agentic AI tooling support.Changes
.github/workflows/cmake/action.yml: Addedcmake_presetinput parameter with conditional execution paths for preset-based (cmake --preset,cmake --build --preset,ctest --preset) vs. legacy manual configuration. Maintains backward compatibility..github/workflows/compilers.yml: Replaced explicit CMake parameters with preset references across all compiler matrices:gcc-{14,17,20,23}-{debug,release}clang-{14,17,20,23}-{debug,release}msvc-{14,17,20,23}-{debug,release}Preset names are dynamically constructed from matrix variables (C++ standard and build type) to match
CMakePresets.jsondefinitions. All build configurations now reference a single source of truth.💡 You can make Copilot smarter by setting up custom instructions, customizing its development environment and configuring Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers.
