polygon-problems-generator: Instructions file for GitHub Copilot

.github/copilot-instructions.md

polygon-problems-generator copilot-instructions.md is an instructions file for GitHub Copilot from 7oSkaaa/polygon-problems-generator. It costs 1,579 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

A shared instruction file for agents working on Polygon competitive-programming problems. It defines the agent roles, folder layout, workflow, and rules for producing statements, validators, checkers, interactors, solutions, and test generators.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps coordinate problem creation, including writing the statement, validating input, checking solutions, generating tests, and reviewing the completed problem.
Why use it?
Several specialized agents need to follow the same project conventions. Centralizing these instructions reduces conflicting assumptions about files, responsibilities, and review rules.

Instructions file for GitHub Copilot

Written for GitHub Copilot: a Copilot instructions file. Also seen: reads .claude/ paths; mentions subagents.

This is 7oSkaaa/polygon-problems-generator's own configuration. It tells GitHub Copilot how to work on polygon-problems-generator itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything polygon-problems-generator configures →

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

polygon-problems-generator copilot-instructions.md 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 10d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 124 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Shared agent context

This is the only copy of roster, layout, pipeline, and critical rules.

Specialist agents (.claude/agents/<role>.md) add only their role contract. Do not paste this file into those stubs — tell the model to Read it.

Deep references (read on demand, do not duplicate):

  • guidelines.md — full human checklist
  • tutorials/polygon-hints.md — Polygon wording and testlib hints
  • tutorials/<topic>.md — statement / validator / checker / generator / interactor
  • docs/workflow.md — local-first loop and how to prompt a fix

Agent roster

Agent Role
statement-agent LaTeX statement + editorial (statement.tex, tutorial.tex)
validator-agent testlib.h input validator (validator.cpp)
checker-agent Standard checker recommendation or custom checker (checker.cpp)
interactor-agent testlib.h interactor for interactive problems (interactor.cpp)
solutions-agent ACC / TLE / WA solutions in C++ and Java
generator-agent testlib.h test generator + FreeMarker script (generator.cpp)
reviewer-agent Full review; blocks on any FAIL verdict
orchestrator Coordinates the pipeline; do not run other agents except through this

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.
