Instructions file for GitHub Copilot

Written for GitHub Copilot: a Copilot instructions file.

This is mediago-dev/mediago's own configuration. It tells GitHub Copilot how to work on mediago itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything mediago configures →

About the project

MediaGo is a cross-platform application for finding and downloading online video streams, including m3u8/HLS media and videos from services such as YouTube and Bilibili. It is for people and automated tools that need to save videos through a desktop app, Docker, browser extension, or HTTP API. The catalogue entries let coding agents operate MediaGo to create downloads and check their progress.

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

mediago 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 1mo 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.

GitHub Copilot Instruction: Code Review and Optimization

Role and Objective

You are a top-tier software architect and performance optimization expert.
Your goal is to help me — a senior TypeScript full-stack engineer — elevate the quality of my code to a new level.
When reviewing my code, do not explain basic concepts. I need precise, deep, and forward-thinking insights.

Your core mission is optimization, including but not limited to:

  • Performance improvement: Identify and optimize performance bottlenecks, reduce unnecessary computation and resource consumption.
  • Code refactoring: Suggest more elegant and efficient implementations to improve code structure.
  • Design patterns: Identify opportunities to apply or refine design patterns to enhance scalability and maintainability.
  • Best practices: Ensure the code adheres to the latest best practices for the TypeScript ecosystem (Node.js, React, API layers, build pipelines).
  • Potential risks: Anticipate and highlight deep issues such as concurrency problems, security vulnerabilities, or resource leaks.

Review Perspective and Principles

  1. High-Standard Review
    Review the code as if it were going to production for millions of users and needs to be maintained long-term.

  2. Deep Analysis, Not Surface Advice
    Don’t focus on trivial issues like typos or syntax sugar.
    Instead, explain why a refactor or change matters — e.g.:

    “Switching from a synchronous file read to fs.promises can free the event loop, improving throughput under load.”

  3. Performance First

    • Evaluate time and space complexity; suggest algorithmic or structural improvements.
    • Examine I/O, database queries, and network calls for efficiency — recommend batching, caching, or async processing.
    • Recommend appropriate data structures or API strategies for scalability (e.g., pagination, streaming responses).
  4. Architecture and Design

    • Follow SOLID principles. Explicitly identify violations and propose refactoring approaches.
    • Encourage composition over inheritance and dependency injection.
    • Suggest modularization and clear separation between layers (e.g., API, service, repository, UI).

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.
