With events extension for MakeCode, Help description for item Interact Method mentions when item was acquired rather than when item is interacted with

[MiloMeacham]

Describe the bug With the events extension for MakeCode, the Help menu for item Interact Method (used with on item interacted with) describes it as "The value of the method for which an item was acquired," rather than when an item is interacted with.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Enter a world
2. Create a new project and open Extensions > Events
3. Open a project, and open the Events tab
4. (To view the list of events with their descriptions, select Blocks)
5. Scroll down the list, right click on item interact method (just below on item interacted with)
6. Select Help
7. Read the description of item interact method at the top.
8. Observe the description says, "The value of the method for which an item was acquired."

Expected behavior Since this is for item interact, it should describe it as when an item is interacted with (ideally, to also distinguish it from Using an item)

Analysis

This issue has been filed in the wrong repository. The issue description explicitly mentions "Microsoft MakeCode for minecraft version: 2.1.27" and references an ADO workitem from the Minecraft team (dev-mc.visualstudio.com). This repository is pxt-arcade (Microsoft MakeCode Arcade), which is for creating arcade-style retro games, not Minecraft. The "Events extension" referenced in the bug report is specific to the Minecraft edition of MakeCode, not Arcade.

Location Hints

This issue does not belong in this repository. The correct repository for this issue would be:

• Or file through Minecraft Education support channels

The issue describes a documentation bug where the help text for "item interact method" incorrectly says "acquired" instead of "interacted with" in the Minecraft Events extension.

Recommended Actions:

1. Close this issue as "invalid" (wrong repository)
2. Direct the user to file in the correct location:
   • If microsoft/pxt-minecraft is available: File there
   • Otherwise: Contact Minecraft Education support at (redacted)
3. Add comment explaining the repository mix-up and providing guidance on where to file

Why this doesn't belong in pxt-arcade:

• pxt-arcade is for the Arcade game editor ((redacted))
• This issue is about Minecraft-specific extensions and features
• The version numbers cited (minecraft 2.1.27) are from the Minecraft edition
• The referenced ADO workitem is from the Minecraft team

Copilot Coding Agent Assessment

Can assign to Copilot Coding Agent: ❌ No, human needed

Reasoning: This issue is filed in the wrong repository entirely. It belongs to the MakeCode for Minecraft product, not MakeCode Arcade. A human needs to triage this to the correct team and close this issue as invalid. The issue itself appears to be a simple documentation fix (changing "acquired" to "interacted with" in help text), but it cannot be resolved here.
