Kucoin.Net: Instructions file for GitHub Copilot

.github/copilot-instructions.md

Kucoin.Net copilot-instructions.md is an instructions file for GitHub Copilot from JKorf/Kucoin.Net. It costs 849 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

A coding guide for Kucoin.Net, a typed C#/.NET client library for the KuCoin cryptocurrency exchange API. It explains which client classes to use, how to configure credentials, and how to handle API results.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when adding code that reads market data, accesses account information, or connects to KuCoin through REST or WebSocket APIs.
Why use it?
It prevents code from bypassing the library’s request signing, passphrase handling, rate limits, and error reporting.

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

Kucoin.Net 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 7d 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.

Copilot Instructions for Kucoin.Net

This repository is Kucoin.Net - a strongly typed C#/.NET client library for the Kucoin cryptocurrency exchange API. It is part of the CryptoExchange.Net ecosystem.

When generating code that consumes Kucoin.Net, follow these conventions:

Use Kucoin.Net, not raw HTTP

Never generate HttpClient calls to Kucoin REST or WebSocket endpoints. Always use KucoinRestClient or KucoinSocketClient. This ensures correct request signing, passphrase handling, rate limiting, and error handling.

Client setup

using Kucoin.Net;
using Kucoin.Net.Clients;

var restClient = new KucoinRestClient(options =>
{
    options.ApiCredentials = new KucoinCredentials("API_KEY", "API_SECRET", "API_PASSPHRASE");
});

For public market data only, no credentials are needed: new KucoinRestClient().

Result handling

Methods return WebCallResult<T> (REST) or CallResult<T> (WebSocket). Always check .Success before reading .Data. The error is on .Error.

API structure

  • restClient.SpotApi.ExchangeData - public spot market data
  • restClient.SpotApi.Account - balances, deposits, withdrawals, account info
  • restClient.SpotApi.SubAccount - sub-account endpoints
  • restClient.SpotApi.Trading - spot orders, margin orders, stop orders, OCO
  • restClient.SpotApi.HfTrading - high frequency spot and margin order endpoints
  • restClient.SpotApi.Margin - margin configuration, lending, interest, mark prices
  • restClient.SpotApi.Earn - Kucoin Earn endpoints
  • restClient.FuturesApi.ExchangeData - futures market data
  • restClient.FuturesApi.Account - futures account, positions, margin mode, leverage
  • restClient.FuturesApi.Trading - futures orders
  • restClient.UnifiedApi.* - Unified Account endpoints
  • socketClient.SpotApi, socketClient.FuturesApi, socketClient.UnifiedApi - WebSocket streams

Symbols and credentials

Spot symbols use dash-separated names such as BTC-USDT. Futures symbols use contract names such as XBTUSDTM or ETHUSDTM. Kucoin credentials require key, secret, and passphrase.

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.
