Pull request overview
Adds Foundry Local as an additional documented BYOK provider option in the authentication docs, aligning it with existing OpenAI-compatible local provider guidance (e.g., Ollama).
Changes:
- Added “Foundry Local” to the Supported Providers table as an
"openai"-type provider. - Added a Foundry Local configuration example and a provider-specific limitations entry.
- Added troubleshooting steps for “Connection Refused (Foundry Local)”.
The TypeScript snippet contains bootstrap comments and a bare object literal that isn't standalone-valid TS, same pattern used elsewhere in the file (e.g. Azure endpoint type confusion examples).
Use manager.endpoint instead of hardcoded URL, add wireApi: completions, and link to the full integration guide and working sample in the Foundry-Local repo (microsoft/Foundry-Local#417).

Adds Foundry Local (Microsoft on-device inference) as a documented BYOK provider in
docs/auth/byok.md.Foundry Local exposes an OpenAI-compatible API locally — the same pattern as the existing Ollama entry. Four insertions, zero deletions:

Foundry Local facilitates running AI models on-device without an Azure subscription. It serves an OpenAI-compatible REST API at
http://localhost:5272/v1, making it a natural fit alongside the existing Ollama documentation.The new sections cover:
type: "openai"with a brief descriptionfoundry-local-sdkand configure the Copilot SDK provider block, including the default endpoint and SDK-provided API keyfoundry --version,foundry model ls,foundry model run,curlhealth check, and install commands for Windows (winget) and macOS (brew)Changes
