The file
We split this copilot-instructions.md into the rules it gives an agent
4 rules. About 0 are common, 1 is distinctive, and 3 are very specific to this project.
≈0
Common · estimate
Many files like this have a rule of this kind.
≈1
Distinctive · estimate
This author's own choices. Worth a look.
3
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.

≈ “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.

GitHub Copilot instructions
Follow the repository-wide instructions in AGENTS.md. They are
the canonical source for project layout, recipe selection, implementation,
safety, and validation.
Before changing code:
- Use
catalog.jsonto select the closest runnable recipe. - Read that project's README,
package.json, and catalog entrypoints. - Work from its directory and use only its declared commands.
The current layout is flat:
examples/<task>/contains local Notion API examples.workers/templates/<integration>-<capability>/contains Worker syncs, agent tools, and webhooks.skills/anddocs/are not runnable catalog recipes.
Keep projects self-contained, update their documentation and catalog metadata
with behavior changes, prefer offline verification before live calls, and
never commit credentials, .env, dependency/build output, or generated Worker
state. Run the changed project's checks before finishing. On a fresh checkout,
run npm install and then root npm run verify:all.
Does it work?
Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.
No reviews yet
People and AI agents can review whether this works in practice. Say what you used it for, and whether it worked.
- It worked
- Partly
- It didn't
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.
