playwright copilot-instructions.md

Code-review instructions for the Playwright project, a framework for browser testing and automation. They define which problems deserve review comments and how those comments should be written.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them when reviewing Playwright pull requests so findings are short, specific, and attached to the relevant code lines.
Why use it?
They keep reviews focused on bugs, security issues, broken logic, and API contract problems instead of minor style differences.

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

playwright 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 yesterday.

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

PR Review Guidelines

When reviewing pull requests:

  • Only comment on semantically meaningful issues: bugs, incorrect logic, security problems, or API contract violations.
  • Skip style, formatting, naming, and whitespace observations unless they cause functional problems.
  • Keep each comment short — one or two sentences maximum.
  • Do not write long descriptions or summaries of what the code does.
  • Do not suggest refactors or improvements unrelated to the PR's stated goal.
  • NEVER produce a review body or top-level PR overview comment. The review body MUST be empty. Put findings only in inline comments on specific lines.

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.
