teams-api copilot-instructions.md

teams-api copilot-instructions.md is an instructions file for GitHub Copilot from Maxim-Mazurok/teams-api. It costs 1,789 tokens per session, scanned B, original, MIT.

Project-specific instructions for working with a Microsoft Teams API project. They document authentication, development references, and techniques for investigating undocumented API behavior.

In plain words
What is it for?
Guiding an agent while developing or consuming the project, including token handling, API reverse engineering, MCP workflows, and GitHub repository conventions.
Why use it?
They prevent common mistakes, such as confusing Teams' two different authentication tokens or using the wrong project documentation.

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 B, and why

teams-api copilot-instructions.md scanned grade B 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 5d 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.

Sends data to an external URLmediumData exfiltration

A POST to an outside endpoint may be telemetry or may be exfiltration; either way the mod talks to somewhere, and you should know where.

AI Agent Instructions

This file contains guidance specific to AI agents working on this codebase — tool usage, MCP workflows, reverse engineering techniques, and domain knowledge that wouldn't be found in standard developer docs.

  • When consuming this project as a user (installing, configuring, using CLI/MCP), refer to README.md.
  • When developing this project (making code changes, writing tests, understanding architecture), refer to CONTRIBUTING.md.

Dual-token authentication

Teams uses two independent tokens captured during a single CDP Fetch interception flow in src/auth/token-capture.ts:

Token Header Audience Used for
Skype token Authentication: skypetoken=<token> Chat Service ({region}.ng.msg.teams.microsoft.com) Messages, threads, members, conversations
Bearer token Authorization: Bearer <token> api.spaces.skype.com (MSAL) Middle-tier APIs on teams.cloud.microsoft (profiles, presence, search)

These tokens cannot be derived from each other. Both are captured in all three auth strategies and persisted together in the macOS Keychain via src/token-store.ts.

If you discover a new endpoint that requires a different token or audience, update the CDP Fetch interception in src/auth/token-capture.ts.

Known API surfaces

Host Auth Examples
{region}.ng.msg.teams.microsoft.com/v1/ Skype token Conversations, messages, thread members
teams.cloud.microsoft/api/mt/{region}/ Bearer token fetchShortProfile, user search, presence
presence.teams.microsoft.com/ Bearer token Availability status

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.
