Central-Memory-MCP: Instructions file for GitHub Copilot

.github/copilot-instructions.md

Central-Memory-MCP copilot-instructions.md is an instructions file for GitHub Copilot from MWG-Logan/Central-Memory-MCP. It costs 2,139 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Project instructions for a .NET Azure Functions MCP server that stores entities and relationships as persistent knowledge-graph data.

In plain words
What is it for?
Working with MCP tools, Azure Functions, Azure Table Storage, local Azurite development, workspaces, entities, relations, and idempotent updates.
Why use it?
They document the current technology stack and storage layout so changes follow the server's implementation and avoid duplicate records.

Instructions file for GitHub Copilot

Written for GitHub Copilot: a Copilot instructions file.

This is MWG-Logan/Central-Memory-MCP's own configuration. It tells GitHub Copilot how to work on Central-Memory-MCP 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 Central-Memory-MCP configures →

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

Central-Memory-MCP copilot-instructions.md scanned grade A 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.

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

Central Memory MCP Server (.NET 10 / Azure Functions)

Model Context Protocol (MCP) memory server built with Azure Functions (.NET 10, C# 14, isolated worker) providing persistent knowledge graph storage (Entities + Relations) for AI assistants.

ALWAYS reference these instructions first. Only fall back to ad‑hoc search or shell commands if something here is contradicted by current code.


Technology Stack (Current Rewrite)

  • .NET 10 (preview) / C# 14
  • Azure Functions isolated worker model
  • Azure Functions MCP Extension (McpToolTrigger / McpToolProperty / ToolInvocationContext)
  • Azure Table Storage (Entities, Relations, Workspaces tables)
  • Azurite (local emulator) for development
  • Idempotent upsert logic for Entities and Relations (no duplicates by logical key)

Storage Schema (Current)

Tables

  • entities: PartitionKey = WorkspaceName, RowKey = Guid (entity Id as N format)
  • relations: PartitionKey = WorkspaceName, RowKey = Guid (relation Id as N format)
  • workspaces: PartitionKey = workspaces, RowKey = workspace name (lowercase)

Entities

  • Unique per (WorkspaceName + Name) – Upsert reuses existing Id.
  • Stored fields: Id, Name, EntityType, Observations ("||" delimited), Metadata.

Relations

  • Unique per (WorkspaceName + FromEntityId + ToEntityId + RelationType) – Upsert reuses existing Id.
  • Stored fields: Id, FromEntityId, ToEntityId, RelationType, Metadata.
  • Upsert accepts either GUIDs (fromEntityId / toEntityId) or legacy names (from / to) which are resolved server‑side.

Key Azure Functions (MCP Tools)

Defined in Functions/GraphFunctions.cs using MCP attributes:

  • read_graph – Return all entities + relations for a workspace.
  • upsert_entity – Create/update entity (idempotent by name).
  • upsert_relation – Create/update relation (idempotent by logical key).
  • get_entity_relations – List relations originating from an entity (accepts entityId or legacy entityName).

Health / readiness endpoints: HealthFunctions (/api/health, /api/ready).

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.
