idd-skill: Instructions file for GitHub Copilot

.github/instructions/idd-work.instructions.md

idd-skill idd-work.instructions.md is an instructions file for GitHub Copilot from kurone-kito/idd-skill. It costs 7,150 tokens per session, scanned C, original, MIT.

A set of instructions for the work and self-review stages of a development workflow, including Git worktrees, planning, implementation, and review.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for creating a branch safely, preparing and carrying out implementation work, and reviewing the result against the workflow rules.
Why use it?
It helps prevent changes from interfering with the main branch and provides checks before and after code is written. A Git worktree is a separate working folder linked to the same repository.

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

idd-skill idd-work.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 6d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 592 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

IDD — Work and Self-Review Phase (B + C)

Read this file after a successful claim. It covers worktree creation (B1), planning (B2), implementation (B3), and the self-review loop (C).

If this agent is running as a delegated worker under the orchestrator fan-out variant, the same wake-up discipline topology-safety condition applies throughout B through F4: never end a turn assuming an unconfirmed background wait resumes it, even when the delegation brief itself already restates the warning -- wait synchronously or with a confirmed topology-safe wake for any backgrounded command, and confirm the result before ending the turn.


B1 — Create worktree (with branch)

Before creating, check for local conflicts in this order. Concurrent workers sharing one clone: serialize every git fetch/merge --ff-only/ worktree add/remove call against the shared clone -- here, and at F4 cleanup's own worktree removal -- behind the clone-scoped lock (see the fan-out variant for when this applies).

  1. Ensure the local {default-branch} branch is up to date and has no local commits. {default-branch} resolves to gh repo view --json defaultBranchRef --jq .defaultBranchRef.name. Validate it per Worktree creation Step 2 (fail closed). Run this from the primary worktree while on {default-branch}:

    git fetch origin
    git log origin/{default-branch}..{default-branch} --oneline
    

    If the second command outputs any lines, local {default-branch} has unpushed commits — stop and report, do not force-reset {default-branch}. Otherwise, fast-forward to origin:

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.
