proton-safe-mcp: Instructions file for GitHub Copilot

.github/instructions/mermaid.instructions.md

proton-safe-mcp mermaid.instructions.md is an instructions file for GitHub Copilot from fbossiere/proton-safe-mcp. It costs 970 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

A set of instructions for creating and editing Mermaid diagrams, which are text-based diagrams generated from simple descriptions. It covers writing diagram files, checking their syntax, and previewing them in Visual Studio Code.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps create, edit, validate, and preview Mermaid diagrams in a coding project. It is intended for diagram work in Visual Studio Code.
Why use it?
It gives an agent a defined process for producing diagrams and catching malformed Mermaid code before showing it. It also identifies the tools used to validate and preview the result.

Instructions file for GitHub Copilot

Written for GitHub Copilot: a Copilot instructions file.

This is fbossiere/proton-safe-mcp's own configuration. It tells GitHub Copilot how to work on proton-safe-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 proton-safe-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

proton-safe-mcp mermaid.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 5d 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.

Mermaid AI Skills

When the user asks to create, edit, or visualize any diagram, use the Mermaid VS Code extension tools and commands described below.

Workflow

  1. Determine the diagram type and generate Mermaid syntax.
  2. Write the diagram to a .mmd file in the project.
  3. Validate syntax: correct first-line keyword, arrow types, balanced brackets.
  4. Preview via the Mermaid extension — open the .mmd file (auto-preview) or run MermaidChart: Preview Diagram (mermaidChart.preview).

LM Tools — call these for every diagram interaction

  • mermaid-diagram-validator — validate Mermaid syntax before presenting any diagram
  • mermaid-diagram-preview — render a live preview inside VS Code after generating
  • get-syntax-docs-mermaid — fetch correct syntax docs for any diagram type

VS Code Commands

Invoke via Command Palette or the VS Code command API (GitHub Copilot in VS Code only). Do not invent command IDs. Prefer writing/editing .mmd files when a command is not needed.

Diagram editing & preview

  • Preview (mermaidChart.preview) — preview the active Mermaid editor (.mmd / .mermaid must be open).
  • Create Diagram (mermaidChart.createMermaidFile) — creates a demo flowchart and opens preview side by side.
  • Repair Diagram (mermaidChart.repairDiagram) — Mermaid AI repair for the active diagram; uses Mermaid AI credits — tell the user before running.
  • Improve Diagram (mermaidChart.improveDiagram) — uses Copilot / LM API; suggests layout + styling variants for the active diagram.

Generate diagrams (GitHub Copilot required)

  • Generate Diagram from Code (mermaidChart.generateDiagramFromCode)
  • Generate Cloud Diagram (mermaidChart.generateCloudDiagram)
  • Generate ER Diagram (mermaidChart.generateERDiagram)
  • Generate Docker Diagram (mermaidChart.generateDockerDiagram)
  • Open AI Chat (mermaidChart.openCopilotChat)

Mermaid Chart cloud

  • Login (mermaidChart.login) / Logout (mermaidChart.logout)
  • Connect Diagram (mermaidChart.connectDiagramToMermaidChart) — link a local diagram to Mermaid Chart.
  • Sync Diagram (mermaidChart.syncDiagramWithMermaid) — only for diagrams already connected (frontmatter has id:). Example:
    ---
    id: cbd9e9ba-a2cb-47c5-a98e-8c28a753428d
    ---

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.
