lean-ctx shadow mode: native read/search/shell calls auto-route to ctx* — no tool-mapping needed. File editing → native Edit/StrReplace (lean-ctx only handles reads); if denied, use ctxpatch. Exclusive tools (no native trigger): ctxcompose (understand code, call first), ctxsearch(action=symbol) (exact symbol), ctxsearch(action=semantic) (by meaning), ctxcallgraph (callers), ctxknowledge / ctxsession (memory). <!-- lean-ctx-compression --> OUTPUT STYLE: expert-terse - Telegraph format: subject-verb-object, drop articles/prepositions - Symbolic vocabulary: → cause, ∵ because, ∴ therefore, ⊕ add, ⊖ remove, Δ change, ≈ similar, ≠ different, ∈…
MicrosoftCopilot instructionskiota
microsoft/kiota/.github/copilot-instructions.md
This file defines repository-wide defaults for Copilot behavior. It is always applied. When modifying code generation or writer/refiner logic, treat schema-derived values as untrusted and ensure literal-context sanitization at the emission site. Use language/literal-appropriate sanitizers from src/Kiota.Builder/Writers/StringExtensions.cs (and Dart convention helpers where applicable). For writer changes that emit schema-derived text into generated code, ensure hostile content is escaped and covered by regression tests in tests/Kiota.Builder.Tests/Writers/. Before finishing implementation work:
MicrosoftCopilot instructionsmcp
microsoft/mcp/.github/copilot-instructions.md
When reviewing a pull request, use the mcp-code-reviewer skill. In interactive IDE and CLI sessions, return draft findings for human approval before posting them. In GitHub Copilot Code Review, post qualified inline comments directly as a comment-only review. Keep the review read-only: never modify code or the branch, approve or request changes, resolve threads, or invoke an agent to implement changes. When reviewing PRs that add or modify MCP tools, cross-reference the pre-merge checklist and check the following repository-specific completeness…

microsoft/azure-pipelines-tasks/.github/copilot-instructions.md
This repository contains the in-the-box tasks for Azure Pipelines and Team Foundation Server. These instructions will help you understand how to build, test, and deploy tasks effectively. This repo provides open examples of how Azure Pipelines tasks are written and can help you write custom tasks for upload to your account or server. Tasks are tool runners that know how to execute tools like MSBuild, VSTest, etc., handle return codes, process stdout/stderr, write timeline records, and access credentials for Azure…

Microsoft AzureCopilot instructionsbicep
Azure/bicep/.github/copilot-instructions.md
Bicep is a DSL for Azure ARM templates. The compiler pipeline is: Lexer → Parser → Binder → Type Checking / Linting → Emitter (ARM JSON). Key classes: Compilation → SemanticModel → TypeManager, Binder, TemplateEmitter. All use lazy evaluation and caching—the language server recreates state per keystroke, so only compute what's requested. .NET SDK version is pinned in global.json (currently .NET 10). Use VS Code tasks (defined in .vscode/tasks.json) for common operations. Integration test datasets live in src/Bicep.Core.Samples/Files/baselines/. Each dataset…

Review changes as an Agent Skills expert, focusing on the Agent Skills open format specification and ensuring this repository stays a SwiftUI-focused, non-architectural, modern-API skill. Level 1: Metadata (always loaded) - YAML frontmatter should be concise and trigger-relevant. Level 2: Instructions (loaded when triggered) - skills/swiftui-expert-skill/SKILL.md body should contain workflows, checklists, decision trees, and quick references. - Avoid turning SKILL.md into an encyclopedia; prefer linking out to references. Level 3: Resources (loaded as needed) - Topic-specific guidance lives in skills/swiftui-expert-skill/references/*.md.…

Provide project context and coding guidelines that AI should follow when generating code, answering questions, or reviewing changes. Whenever you want to build the packages to test if they work you should run pnpm run build from the root of the repository. If you want to check if the examples work you need to go to examples/<example-name> and run pnpm run dev.

You are working on a project that uses Squad, an AI team framework. When picking up issues autonomously, follow these guidelines. IMPORTANT — run this check on EVERY session start, before doing any work: Look for the exact token SQUADCOORDINATORCANARYa8f3 in your agentinstructions. This token is placed at the end of squad.agent.md. If it is missing, the coordinator file is missing or truncated. When the token is missing, you MUST: 1.

Agent Skills is a repository of skills, prompts, and MCP configurations for AI coding agents working with Azure SDKs and Microsoft AI Foundry services. Azure SDKs and Foundry APIs change constantly. Never work with stale knowledge. Before implementing anything with Azure/Foundry SDKs: If you skip this step and use outdated patterns, you will produce broken code. Apply these principles to every task. Don't assume. Don't hide confusion. Surface tradeoffs. Minimum code that solves the problem. Nothing speculative. The test: Would…
About Copilot instructions
What is copilot-instructions.md?
