GitHub Spec Kit is a comprehensive toolkit for implementing Spec-Driven Development (SDD) - a methodology that emphasizes creating clear specifications before implementation. The toolkit includes templates, scripts, and workflows that guide development teams through a structured approach to building software. Specify CLI is the command-line interface that bootstraps projects with the Spec Kit framework. It sets up the necessary directory structures, templates, and AI agent integrations to support the Spec-Driven Development workflow. The toolkit supports multiple AI coding assistants, allowing…
The Awesome GitHub Copilot repository is a community-driven collection of custom agents and instructions designed to enhance GitHub Copilot experiences across various domains, languages, and use cases. The project includes: All agent files (.agent.md) and instruction files (.instructions.md) must include proper markdown front matter. Agent Skills are folders containing a SKILL.md file with frontmatter and optional bundled assets. Hooks are folders containing a README.md with frontmatter and a hooks.json configuration file:
These pointers tell agents where the user's personal context files live. Read only the file(s) needed to answer a question; do not load all of them by default. Run the setup-my-iq skill to populate these context files (or fill them in manually). Once they exist, update each @<path> pointer below to reference the real location. - identityProfile — name, role, org, team, manager, what the user does, what people come to them for. @<CONTEXT_DIR>/identity.md - roleAndResponsibilities — responsibilities per team,…
{% data reusables.rai.copilot.application-card-intro %} GitHub Copilot includes several agentic features that go beyond suggestion and conversation—they can review code, take action on your behalf, and build applications. This card covers…
Quick purpose: Help contributors and AI coding agents quickly understand this mono-repo and be productive (build, test, add SDK features, add E2E tests). ✅ <SDK_ROOT> means this directory, whether it is checked out as a standalone repository or nested under another repository. - Start with SDK development setup for layout-specific prerequisites and dependency preparation; select only the languages needed. - Monorepo helpers: use the portable package scripts from <SDKROOT>: - Build all six SDKs: npm --prefix <SDKROOT> run build -…
This style guide applies to all documentation in the docs/ directory. These docs are synced to github/docs-internal via a normalization pipeline, so they must follow the conventions below to be compatible with docs.github.com. Use sentence case for all headings. Capitalize only the first word and proper nouns. Use and instead of & in headings. Do not use bold or italic markers inside headings. The heading level provides emphasis. Use GitHub-flavored alert syntax: Never use > Note: or > Tip: style…
This directory is the Java SDK's Maven reactor. Paths and commands below are relative to this directory, whether it is nested at src/sdk/java or exported as java. Keep API usage examples in README.md, the SDK documentation, and public Javadoc rather than duplicating them in these contributor instructions. - sdk/src/main/java/ contains the handwritten client, session, and RPC APIs. sdk/src/test/java/ contains unit and integration tests. - sdk/src/generated/java/ contains generated protocol and event types. - copilot-native/ packages platform-specific runtime artifacts separately from the…
This directory contains the independent github-copilot-sdk crate. In standalone SDK workflows, paths and Cargo commands below are relative to this directory, and this crate's own lockfile and toolchain apply. When nested at src/sdk/rust, the runtime CLI consumes the same checked-out sources through the Bazel integration described under Development. The runtime's N-API architecture does not otherwise govern this crate. - Use the existing Error and ErrorKind in src/errors.rs. Extend that public error contract instead of adding parallel per-module error types or…
This is a CodeQL extractor that maps a language's parse tree onto a shared AST using the yeast desugaring engine. Swift, the only language so far, is parsed by Apple's swift-syntax rather than by tree-sitter. - The raw parse tree's shape is described by extractor/swiftnodetypes.yml, which is generated from swift-syntax by swift-syntax-rs/schemagen. Do not edit it by hand; regenerate it with scripts/regenerate-node-types.sh after changing the pinned swift-syntax version, then review the diff alongside the mapping in extractor/src/languages/swift/swift.rs. - To run…
