mcp4openapi: Command for GitHub Copilot

.github/prompts/technical-debt.prompt.md

technical-debt is a command for GitHub Copilot from davidruzicka/mcp4openapi. It costs 13 tokens per session (354 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A command that analyses technical debt and writes a remediation plan without changing code. Technical debt is the future cost created by brittle, outdated, poorly tested, or poorly documented software.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to plan work on missing tests, outdated documentation, tangled structure, deprecated dependencies, weak design, and TODO or FIXME items.
Why use it?
It turns scattered maintenance problems into a prioritised plan with impact, risk, prerequisites, steps, and verification methods.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

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.

Security

Grade A, and why

technical-debt 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.

What it actually says

Technical Debt Remediation Plan

Generate comprehensive technical debt remediation plans. Analysis only - no code modifications. Keep recommendations concise and actionable. Do not provide verbose explanations or unnecessary details.

Analysis Framework

Create Markdown document with required sections:

Core Metrics (1-5 scale)

  • Ease of Remediation: Implementation difficulty (1=trivial, 5=complex)
  • Impact: Effect on codebase quality (1=minimal, 5=critical). Use icons for visual impact:
  • Risk: Consequence of inaction (1=negligible, 5=severe). Use icons for visual impact:
    • 🟢 Low Risk
    • 🟡 Medium Risk
    • 🔴 High Risk

Required Sections

  • Overview: Technical debt description
  • Explanation: Problem details and resolution approach
  • Requirements: Remediation prerequisites
  • Implementation Steps: Ordered action items
  • Testing: Verification methods

Common Technical Debt Types

  • Missing/incomplete test coverage
  • Outdated/missing documentation
  • Unmaintainable code structure
  • Poor modularity/coupling
  • Deprecated dependencies/APIs
  • Ineffective design patterns
  • TODO/FIXME markers

Output Format

  1. Summary Table: Overview, Ease, Impact, Risk, Explanation
  2. Detailed Plan: All required sections

GitHub Integration

  • Use search_issues before creating new issues
  • Apply /.github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/chore_request.yml template for remediation tasks
  • Reference existing issues when relevant
Changes

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.
