## What text-stats does, in the publisher's words

A GitHub Copilot Agent Plugins 1.0 marketplace with one plugin: Text Stats.

Counts words, characters, lines, and sentences in any text. The agent calls a bundled, zero-dependency MCP tool, so its work shows up as a concrete result in Copilot chat.

- Agent: Text Stats (appears in the Copilot agent picker)
- MCP tool: text_stats: returns word / character / line / sentence counts
- Set chat.plugins.enabled to true in VS Code settings.
- Add this marketplace to chat.plugins.marketplaces: json { "chat.plugins.marketplaces": ["ankmay0/text-stats"] }
- Open the Extensions view, search @agentPlugins, and install text-stats.
- Select Text Stats in the Copilot agent picker and try: > Get stats for: The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.

The plugin's MCP server is trusted automatically (no startup prompt).

From the project README, punctuation lightly normalized. Full text: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ankmay0/text-stats/HEAD/README.md
