vibe-coding-ai-rules: Instructions file for GitHub Copilot

ide-specific/github-copilot/.github/instructions/code-style.instructions.md

vibe-coding-ai-rules code-style.instructions.md is an instructions file for GitHub Copilot from obviousworks/vibe-coding-ai-rules. It costs 255 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

A set of code-style instructions covering naming, formatting, readability, function types, component boundaries, and patterns to avoid.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to guide file, component, function, variable, constant, and type names; formatting choices; explicit return types; error handling; and separation of application logic from UI.
Why use it?
It gives generated code a consistent shape and reduces maintenance problems caused by unclear names, unhandled errors, inline styling, or mixed UI and business logic.

Instructions file for GitHub Copilot

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

vibe-coding-ai-rules code-style.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 2mo 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.

What it actually says

Code Style Standards

Naming Conventions

  • Files: {{FILE_NAMING}} (e.g., kebab-case.tsx, snake_case.py)
  • Components: PascalCase
  • Functions: camelCase with verb prefixes (getUserData, calculateTotal)
  • Variables: camelCase with auxiliary verbs for booleans (isLoading, hasError)
  • Constants: UPPER_SNAKE_CASE
  • Types/Interfaces: PascalCase

Formatting

  • Indentation: {{INDENTATION}} (e.g., 2 spaces)
  • Line Length: {{LINE_LENGTH}} max (e.g., 100 chars)
  • Quotes: {{QUOTE_STYLE}} (e.g., single quotes)
  • Semicolons: {{SEMICOLONS}} (e.g., required)
  • Trailing Commas: always in multi-line structures

Do's

  • Use explicit return types for functions
  • Prefer composition over inheritance
  • Use const assertions for literal types
  • Implement proper error boundaries

Don'ts

  • No any types — use unknown with type guards
  • No unhandled promise rejections
  • No inline styles (use CSS framework)
  • No business logic in UI components
Changes

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.
