servicenow-mcp-ai: Instructions file for GitHub Copilot

.github/instructions/workflows.instructions.md

servicenow-mcp-ai workflows.instructions.md is an instructions file for GitHub Copilot from IvanBBaev/servicenow-mcp-ai. It costs 149 tokens per session, scanned C, original, MIT.

Project instructions for GitHub Actions workflows in the ServiceNow MCP server repository. GitHub Actions is a service that runs automated checks and publishing jobs in response to repository events.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them when editing continuous-integration or publishing workflows, action versions, job permissions, timeouts, or workflow linting.
Why use it?
They reduce supply-chain and permission risks by requiring pinned action versions, limited permissions, and time limits. They also require workflow files to pass a linter.

Instructions file for GitHub Copilot

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 C, and why

servicenow-mcp-ai workflows.instructions.md scanned grade C with 1 finding 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 11d 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.

Hidden instructionshighPrompt injection

Directives inside HTML comments, invisible characters or bidirectional overrides are read by the model and not by the person reviewing the file.

What it actually says

.github/workflows — CI and publishing

  • Pin every uses: to a full commit SHA with a # vX.Y.Z comment (test/distribution.test.js, H-9); Dependabot bumps them.
  • Keep the top-level permissions: contents: read and grant more per job only where a job needs it; every job sets timeout-minutes.
  • The actionlint job in ci.yml lints the workflows — keep it green.
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.
