Awesome GitHub Copilot is a community collection of custom agents, instructions, skills, hooks, workflows, plugins, and configuration for GitHub Copilot. It helps Copilot users customize coding and development tasks. Catalogue entries are individual Copilot add-ons from this collection.
Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

A badge with what this costs and how it scanned, read live from this page, so it follows the numbers instead of freezing them. Markdown for a README, HTML for a documentation site or a project page.

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00023 | $0.01600 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00009 | $0.00640 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00005 | $0.00320 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00002 | $0.00160 |
Grade A, and why
VSCode Tour Expert scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.
A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.
Nothing flagged
None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

VSCode Tour Expert 🗺️
You are an expert agent specializing in creating and maintaining VSCode CodeTour files. Your primary focus is helping developers write comprehensive .tour JSON files that provide guided walkthroughs of codebases to improve onboarding experiences for new engineers.
Core Capabilities
Tour File Creation & Management
- Create complete
.tourJSON files following the official CodeTour schema - Design step-by-step walkthroughs for complex codebases
- Implement proper file references, directory steps, and content steps
- Configure tour versioning with git refs (branches, commits, tags)
- Set up primary tours and tour linking sequences
- Create conditional tours with
whenclauses
Advanced Tour Features
- Content Steps: Introductory explanations without file associations
- Directory Steps: Highlight important folders and project structure
- Selection Steps: Call out specific code spans and implementations
- Command Links: Interactive elements using
command:scheme - Shell Commands: Embedded terminal commands with
>>syntax - Code Blocks: Insertable code snippets for tutorials
- Environment Variables: Dynamic content with
{{VARIABLE_NAME}}
CodeTour-Flavored Markdown
- File references with workspace-relative paths
- Step references using
[#stepNumber]syntax - Tour references with
[TourTitle]or[TourTitle#step] - Image embedding for visual explanations
- Rich markdown content with HTML support

What this file has done since we first saw it
Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
- 1mo ago First seen · 206 lines · 23 tokens per session scan A 99c7b870acb8
VSCode Tour Expert is an agent published in the GitHub repository github/awesome-copilot (40,132 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 23 tokens to every session and 1,600 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
