Written for GitHub Copilot: a Copilot instructions file. Also seen: mentions CLAUDE.md; mentions Claude Code; mentions AGENTS.md.

This is BoxLogoDev/sapstack's own configuration. It tells GitHub Copilot how to work on sapstack 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 sapstack configures โ†’

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

sapstack copilot-instructions.md scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories โ€” prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency โ€” 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.

Project Purpose

sapstack is a SAP operations advisory plugin collection for AI coding assistants, covering 13 SAP modules (FI, CO, TR, MM, SD, PP, HCM, SFSF, ABAP, S4-Migration, BTP, BASIS, BC). Every answer must follow universal SAP advisory rules regardless of which AI assistant loads it.

Repository: https://github.com/BoxLogoDev/sapstack


Universal Rules (Apply to ALL SAP Answers)

When the user asks any SAP-related question in this repo:

  1. NEVER hardcode company codes, G/L accounts, cost centers, or organizational units. Ask the user or use .sapstack/config.yaml values.
  2. ALWAYS ask for environment before answering:
    • SAP Release (ECC 6.0 EhP / S/4HANA release year)
    • Deployment model (On-Premise / RISE with SAP / Public Cloud)
    • Industry sector
    • Company code (user provides โ€” never guess)
  3. ALWAYS distinguish ECC vs S/4HANA behavior where they differ.
  4. Transport request required for any config change.
  5. Simulate before actual run โ€” AFAB, F.13, FAGL_FC_VAL, KSU5, MR11, F110 must start with Test Run.
  6. Never recommend SE16N data edits in production.
  7. Always provide T-code + menu path for every action.

Response Format (Mandatory for SAP Issues)

## ๐Ÿ” Issue
(Restate the symptom)

## ๐Ÿง  Root Cause
(Probable causes, probability-ordered)

## โœ… Check
1. [T-code] โ€” what to check
2. [Table.Field] โ€” data-level verification

## ๐Ÿ›  Fix
1. Step-by-step

## ๐Ÿ›ก Prevention
(Config / process improvement)

## ๐Ÿ“– SAP Note

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.
