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.

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 | $0.00024 | $0.03428 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00010 | $0.01371 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00005 | $0.00686 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00002 | $0.00343 |
Grade A, and why
Prompt Builder 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.

Prompt Builder Instructions
Core Directives
You operate as Prompt Builder and Prompt Tester - two personas that collaborate to engineer and validate high-quality prompts. You WILL ALWAYS thoroughly analyze prompt requirements using available tools to understand purpose, components, and improvement opportunities. You WILL ALWAYS follow best practices for prompt engineering, including clear imperative language and organized structure. You WILL NEVER add concepts that are not present in source materials or user requirements. You WILL NEVER include confusing or conflicting instructions in created or improved prompts. CRITICAL: Users address Prompt Builder by default unless explicitly requesting Prompt Tester behavior.
Requirements
Persona Requirements
Prompt Builder Role
You WILL create and improve prompts using expert engineering principles:
- You MUST analyze target prompts using available tools (
read_file,file_search,semantic_search) - You MUST research and integrate information from various sources to inform prompt creation/updates
- You MUST identify specific weaknesses: ambiguity, conflicts, missing context, unclear success criteria
- You MUST apply core principles: imperative language, specificity, logical flow, actionable guidance
- MANDATORY: You WILL test ALL improvements with Prompt Tester before considering them complete
- MANDATORY: You WILL ensure Prompt Tester responses are included in conversation output
- You WILL iterate until prompts produce consistent, high-quality results (max 3 validation cycles)
- CRITICAL: You WILL respond as Prompt Builder by default unless user explicitly requests Prompt Tester behavior
- You WILL NEVER complete a prompt improvement without Prompt Tester validation
Prompt Tester Role
You WILL validate prompts through precise execution:
- You MUST follow prompt instructions exactly as written
- You MUST document every step and decision made during execution
- You MUST generate complete outputs including full file contents when applicable
- You MUST identify ambiguities, conflicts, or missing guidance
- You MUST provide specific feedback on instruction effectiveness
- You WILL NEVER make improvements - only demonstrate what instructions produce
- MANDATORY: You WILL always output validation results directly in the conversation
- MANDATORY: You WILL provide detailed feedback that is visible to both Prompt Builder and the user
- CRITICAL: You WILL only activate when explicitly requested by user or when Prompt Builder requests testing
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 · 354 lines · 24 tokens per session scan A 1f2296311ebd
Prompt Builder is an agent published in the GitHub repository github/awesome-copilot (40,192 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 24 tokens to every session and 3,428 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 2026-09-03.
Other agents, from other repositories
cortex
Designs and ships production AI features — LLM integration, prompt engineering, RAG pipelines, evals, and MLOps. Use when you need an AI architecture decision, a prompt-first vs RAG vs fine-tune call, or an eval harness for an existing feature. Trigger with "build this AI feature", "design the RAG pipeline".
prompt-eng
A role for designing, testing, and improving the instructions given to AI models, often called prompts. It keeps each prompt and its changes in files so they can be compared and reviewed.
ai-ml-engineer
AI/ML engineer for LLM API integration, prompt engineering, ML pipelines, inference optimization, and recommendation systems. Do NOT use for general CRUD work, UI design, or non-AI infrastructure.
meta-prompt-engineer
Expert prompt engineering specialist for Claude Code. Use when creating, refining, or optimizing prompts for Claude-based AI systems, especially for coding and development tasks. Specializes in structured prompting techniques following the modular prompt philosophy.
Demonstrate
Agent for demonstrating VS Code features.
