One search for your own team's files and the public ecosystem. See how real projects write their agent instructions, and bring the good ideas home.
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.

github/awesome-copilot/skills/winmd-api-search/SKILL.md
Find and explore Windows desktop APIs. Use when building features that need platform capabilities — camera, file access, notifications, UI controls, AI/ML, sensors, networking, etc. Discovers the right API for a task and retrieves full type details (methods, properties, events, enumeration values).
github/awesome-copilot/skills/winui3-migration-guide/SKILL.md
UWP-to-WinUI 3 migration reference. Maps legacy UWP APIs to correct Windows App SDK equivalents with before/after code snippets. Covers namespace changes, threading (CoreDispatcher to DispatcherQueue), windowing (CoreWindow to AppWindow), dialogs, pickers, sharing, printing, background tasks, and the most common Copilot code generation mistakes.

github/awesome-copilot/skills/workshop-create/SKILL.md
Create a new workshop or use an existing directory as one. Handles two paths: (A) use an existing local directory the operator points at, or (B) create a new private GitHub repo in the signed-in account. Never creates a repo inside another repo.

This is the GitHub MCP Server, a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that connects AI tools to GitHub's platform. It enables AI agents to manage repositories, issues, pull requests, workflows, and more through natural language. Key Details: - Language: Go 1.27.3+ (~38k lines of code) - Type: MCP server application with CLI interface - Primary Package: github-mcp-server (stdio MCP server - this is the main focus) - Secondary Package: mcpcurl (testing utility - don't break it, but not the priority)…

github/copilot-sdk/java/AGENTS.md
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…
github/copilot-sdk/rust/AGENTS.md
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…
github/codeql/.github/skills/bazel/SKILL.md
Conventions for editing Bazel files in the github/codeql repository: the shared `misc/bazel` helpers, `codeql_platform_select` and the `{CODEQL_PLATFORM}` packaging placeholder, adding `MODULE.bazel` dependencies, and the `semmle_code` stub that keeps the standalone build working. Use when editing any `BUILD.bazel`, `*.bzl`, `MODULE.bazel` or `.bazelrc` here, and before validating such an edit.
github/codeql/unified/AGENTS.md
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/swift_node_types.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…
github/gh-aw/AGENTS.md
GitHub Agentic Workflows (gh-aw) is a GitHub CLI extension that compiles markdown workflows into GitHub Actions. To keep first-turn context small, only these repository root instruction files should be considered ambient: Everything else should be loaded lazily through skills only when needed. Workflows that declare a source: frontmatter entry (for example source: githubnext/agentic-ops@<ref>) are provenance-managed from an upstream bundle.

Plain text files in a repository that tell a coding agent how the project works: commands to run, conventions to follow and things to avoid. CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md, cursor rules and skills are the common kinds.
CLAUDE.md is read by Claude Code. AGENTS.md is an open format that Codex, Cursor and other agents read. Many projects keep one and point the other at it.
A folder with a SKILL.md that describes one capability, such as filling PDFs or reviewing code. The agent loads it only when the task calls for it.
Your agents already can, over MCP, limited to the files you're allowed to read. Searching them from this page is coming.
