open-bridge copilot-instructions.md

open-bridge copilot-instructions.md is an instructions file for GitHub Copilot from bks-lab/open-bridge. It costs 375 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Startup instructions for GitHub Copilot in the open-bridge repository. They direct Copilot to the project's main instructions, run a one-time setup script, and follow a session-start check before making changes.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them when starting work in open-bridge to install its Git hooks, repair skill links, detect the repository state, and begin the required onboarding process.
Why use it?
They ensure a fresh checkout has its safeguards enabled and that the agent understands the repository's rules before editing code.

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

open-bridge 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 3d 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

The Bridge — GitHub Copilot

GitHub Copilot reads this .github/copilot-instructions.md at session start. This project keeps its full, tool-agnostic operating manual in AGENTS.md — the canonical and complete reference (no further hops). CLAUDE.md and GEMINI.md are the same kind of thin pointer.

If you are GitHub Copilot: read AGENTS.md and follow it. Skills are auto-discovered under .github/skills/ — a symlink to the top-level skills/ folder, so every supported agent loads the same skill set.

Run setup once (fresh clone)

A plain git clone does not arm the repo's guard rails. Before your first commit, run ./bin/setup once (Windows: bin\setup.ps1). It:

  • arms the pre-push leak guard via git config core.hooksPath scripts/hooks (blocks publishing local user data to a public upstream), and
  • repairs the skills-discovery symlinks if your checkout materialized them as plain files.

Session-start gate

Before acting on a fresh clone, read rules/session-start.md (Phase 0). It detects branch/config state and, for a new user, opens the onboarding front door.

Copilot has no Skill tool or slash-commands, so to onboard, read skills/bridge-onboard/SKILL.mdskills/bridge-onboard/references/workflow.md and run the phases inline.

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.
