agent-ready copilot-instructions.md

Repository instructions for a strict TypeScript project running on Node.js 20 or newer. They define coding style, testing practices, local-only scanning, Git rules, and the commands used for checks and builds.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them when changing agent-ready source code, types, fixtures, tests, formatting, linting, builds, or commit preparation.
Why use it?
They make contributions consistent and reduce errors caused by unchecked types, stale tests, unwanted network calls, or incomplete verification. They also require related tests to be updated with code changes.

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

agent-ready 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 2d 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

TypeScript project using Node 20+ with strict mode enabled.

Commands: npm test (152 tests), npm run check (typecheck + lint + format), npm run build (tsc).

Code style: kebab-case files, PascalCase interfaces, camelCase functions. Interfaces over types. Avoid any, use unknown. Export types from src/types.ts.

Testing: Node built-in test runner via tsx --test. Fixtures in test/fixtures/. Always run tests after changes and update tests in the same pass as code changes.

Git: Atomic commits with semantic prefixes (feat/fix/docs/chore). Run npm run check before committing.

Do not add external API calls — all scanning must remain local. Do not modify src/types.ts without updating all consumers.

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.
