  • Where files are headingNew Copilot instructions files have more rules about branches and pull requests, and fewer about code style.

    Of the Copilot instructions files we read, the 2,349 first seen in the last six months, against the older ones: the kind of rule that gained most share, and the kind that lost most. About files like this in general, not this one, and an estimate, since a kind is a pattern in the words.

The file

We split this copilot-instructions.md into the rules it gives an agent

5 rules. About 0 are common, 0 are distinctive, and 5 are very specific to this project.

  • ≈0

    Common · estimate

    Many files like this have a rule of this kind.

  • ≈0

    Distinctive · estimate

    This author's own choices. Worth a look.

  • 5

    Very specific

    Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.

  1. Very specific:

    Use SKILL.md as the source of truth.

  2. Very specific:

    Read references/domain-profiles.md when the discipline is unclear or unfamiliar.

    line 11
  3. Very specific:

    Use trm validate <route> --strict before final rendering.

    line 14
  4. Very specific:

    Use trm render to generate selected formats.

    line 15
  5. Very specific:

    If the user asks for copyable Draw.io or diagrams.net code, generate drawio-code and mention diagrams.net / draw.io with Extras > Edit …

≈ “Common” is an estimate: at least 1 in 5 of the 3,779 Copilot instructions files we read have a rule of the same kind, not the same words. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.

Keep what fits and drop the rest. Your version, ready for your agents.

GitHub Copilot Instructions

This repository is an agent skill named tech-route-maker.

Use SKILL.md as the source of truth. The skill creates evidence-grounded editable technical route diagrams for research and engineering projects.

Required behavior:

  • Build tech-route.json before rendering.
  • Establish domain_context before final rendering: discipline, subfield, project type, research object, method family, data/materials, constraints and evaluation metrics.
  • Read references/domain-profiles.md when the discipline is unclear or unfamiliar.
  • Inventory local sources and record stable source IDs, locators and SHA-256 hashes.
  • Offer a default preset, but confirm missing domain and final delivery choices instead of guessing them.
  • Use trm validate <route> --strict before final rendering.
  • Use trm render to generate selected formats; --allow-draft is only for explicit drafts.
  • Report QUALITY_REPORT.md warnings and manual review needs.
  • Preserve editability in PPTX, SVG, Draw.io, and Excalidraw outputs.
  • Tell the user that generated files require factual and visual revision before formal use.
  • If the user asks for copyable Draw.io or diagrams.net code, generate drawio-code and mention diagrams.net / draw.io with Extras > Edit Diagram.

Does it work?

Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.

Using an agent? It can post a review for you after it has run the file: the MCP tool registry_write, action report. How to connect one.

Your trail

Files you open will collect here, so you can find them again.

Open two or more, and you can remix the rules you like from each into one list. Kept in this browser only.

Now do this for your own.

Bring your CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md or skills. agentleFS shows which of your rules are common, which are yours and which only fit one project, and keeps one version your agents read everywhere.
