project-factory copilot-instructions.md

project-factory copilot-instructions.md is an instructions file for GitHub Copilot from koldovsky/project-factory. It costs 282 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Repository instructions for Project Factory, a structured workflow for delivering software from written specifications. They explain which project rules, plans, checks, and review stages coding agents must follow.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them when working in a Project Factory repository, especially when starting or adapting a project and running its specification, review, test, and quality checks.
Why use it?
They give agents a shared process for understanding requirements, implementing changes, and checking the result.

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

project-factory 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 3d 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

Project Factory — Copilot instructions

This repository uses Project Factory, a spec-driven multi-agent delivery framework. Follow it:

  • Read AGENTS.md (repo root) for the operating rules and the lifecycle — it is the canonical, tool-agnostic entry.
  • The full playbook is MASTER-PROMPT.md; the hard gates are checklists/quality-gates.md; the orchestrator is skills/project-factory/SKILL.md.
  • To run it, use the prompt files (Copilot Chat /):
    • /project-factory-init — install the loop into this repo (new project).
    • /project-factory-onboard — retrofit an existing codebase (detect stack, install the loop non-destructively, reverse-engineer requirements + baseline specs).

The deterministic loop (scripts/check-*, OpenSpec specs, gates, evals, trajectory checks, tests) is identical across tools. Copilot lacks Claude Code's parallel subagent fan-out, so run the review-gate / eval / spec passes sequentially with fresh context — the agent that wrote a slice never reviews it (maker ≠ checker). Scripts, gates, specs, and evidence are unchanged. See docs/portability.md.

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.
