nestjs-starter: Instructions file for GitHub Copilot

.github/instructions/interfaces.instructions.md

nestjs-starter interfaces.instructions.md is an instructions file for GitHub Copilot from hmake98/nestjs-starter. It costs 287 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Coding rules for TypeScript interfaces in a NestJS starter project. Interfaces describe the shape of data used by requests, responses, and database entities.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them when defining database entity types, create and update inputs, authenticated-user data, and API response shapes.
Why use it?
They keep data definitions consistent and prevent duplicated or overly loose types such as any.

Instructions file for GitHub Copilot

Written for GitHub Copilot: a Copilot instructions file.

This is hmake98/nestjs-starter's own configuration. It tells GitHub Copilot how to work on nestjs-starter 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 nestjs-starter 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

nestjs-starter interfaces.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 2mo 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

Interface Conventions

Database entity interfaces (src/common/database/interfaces/)

import type { Post } from '@prisma/client';

// Entity is always a direct type alias from Prisma — never re-declared
export type PostEntity = Post;

// CreateInput: all fields required for creation (no id, createdAt, updatedAt, deletedAt)
export interface CreatePostInput {
    title: string;
    authorId: string;
    published?: boolean;
}

// UpdateInput: all fields optional
export interface UpdatePostInput {
    title?: string;
    published?: boolean;
}

Request interfaces (src/common/request/interfaces/)

// IAuthUser: what JwtAccessGuard puts on request.user
export interface IAuthUser {
    userId: string;
    role: UserRole;
}

Response interfaces (src/common/response/interfaces/)

  • Mirror the DTO shape for use in interceptors/filters.
  • Use generics for data payloads (IApiSuccessResponse<T>).

Rules

  • Never use any — use unknown with type narrowing or a proper interface.
  • No business logic in interface files — types and interfaces only.
  • Import Prisma types with import type { X } from '@prisma/client' — always type import.
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.
