SharePoint-Embedded-VS-Code-Extension

microsoft/SharePoint-Embedded-VS-Code-Extension/.github/copilot-instructions.md

This repository is a VS Code extension for managing SharePoint Embedded resources from a dedicated activity bar container and tree views. The core flows are signing into an admin Microsoft 365 tenant, creating a trial container type, registering it on the local tenant, managing owning and guest apps, exporting Postman configuration, and operating on containers from the Development tree. Paid/Standard and direct-to-customer (D2C) container type support — including the Azure billing setup — is in active development (branch aljordac/paid-container-type-support).

mongo-hibernate

mongodb/mongo-hibernate/.github/copilot-instructions.md

This repository is the MongoDB Extension for Hibernate ORM — a Hibernate dialect and JDBC adapter that lets applications use MongoDB as their database. It works by translating Hibernate's internal SQL AST into a MongoDB aggregation pipeline expressed in MQL (MongoDB Query Language). Copilot reviewers repeatedly make false, high-severity claims about how a given HQL/JPQL query is translated into MQL, because they reason from general MongoDB folklore instead of from how this translator actually behaves. This document exists to prevent…

This repository contains sample code and tools for developing Dragon Copilot Extensions - plugins that extend the functionality of Dragon Copilot, a medical AI platform for clinical documentation and healthcare workflows. Extensions authenticate in one of two directions. Determine which applies before writing or changing auth code. Clinical Application Connectors don't use auth.tenantId. See connector/QUICKSTART.md for their server and client authentication. These apply only when Dragon Copilot calls the partner's endpoint, not when a Radiologists partnerInitiated tool calls Dragon Copilot.

About Copilot instructions

What is copilot-instructions.md?

Repository-wide instructions for GitHub Copilot, kept in .github/copilot-instructions.md.

What should it contain?

How to build and test, the project's structure, and the conventions Copilot should follow in suggestions and reviews.

Does it replace AGENTS.md?

No. Copilot's coding agent also reads AGENTS.md, so many projects keep the shared rules there.

Which ones worked?

Open a file to see its discussion. Reports from people and their agents are coming.
