polish-academic-mcp: Instructions file for GitHub Copilot

.github/instructions/context7.instructions.md

polish-academic-mcp context7.instructions.md is an instructions file for GitHub Copilot from asterixix/polish-academic-mcp. It costs 977 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Instructions for using Context7, a source of current, version-specific documentation for software libraries and APIs, when local information is not enough.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them when a coding task depends on external technical documentation, a particular software version, or an unfamiliar error.
Why use it?
They reduce the risk of relying on outdated or incorrect details about framework features, settings, security practices, or limits.

Instructions file for GitHub Copilot

Written for GitHub Copilot: a Copilot instructions file.

This is asterixix/polish-academic-mcp's own configuration. It tells GitHub Copilot how to work on polish-academic-mcp 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 polish-academic-mcp 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

polish-academic-mcp context7.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 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.

Context7-aware development

Use Context7 proactively whenever the task depends on authoritative, current, version-specific external documentation that is not present in the workspace context.

This instruction exists so you do not require the user to type “use context7” to get up-to-date docs.

When to use Context7

Use Context7 before making decisions or writing code when you need any of the following:

  • Framework/library API details (method signatures, configuration keys, expected behaviors).
  • Version-sensitive guidance (breaking changes, deprecations, new defaults).
  • Correctness or security-critical patterns (auth flows, crypto usage, deserialization rules).
  • Interpreting unfamiliar error messages that likely come from third-party tools.
  • Best-practice implementation constraints (rate limits, quotas, required headers, supported formats).

Also use Context7 when:

  • The user references a specific framework/library version (e.g., “Next.js 15”, “React 19”, “AWS SDK v3”).
  • You’re about to recommend non-trivial configuration (CLI flags, config files, auth flows).
  • You’re unsure whether an API exists, changed names, or got deprecated.

Skip Context7 for:

  • Purely local refactors, formatting, naming, or logic that is fully derivable from the repo.
  • Language fundamentals (no external APIs involved).

What to fetch

When using Context7, prefer primary sources and narrow queries:

  • Official docs (vendor/framework documentation)
  • Reference/API pages
  • Release notes / migration guides
  • Security advisories (when relevant)

Gather only what you need to proceed. If multiple candidates exist, pick the most authoritative/current.

Prefer fetching:

  • The exact method/type/option you will use
  • The minimal surrounding context needed to avoid misuse (constraints, default behaviors, migration notes)

How to incorporate results

  • Translate findings into concrete code/config changes.
  • Cite sources with title + URL when the decision relies on external facts.
  • If docs conflict or are ambiguous, present the tradeoffs briefly and choose the safest default.

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.
