Instructions file for GitHub Copilot

Written for GitHub Copilot: a Copilot instructions file. Also seen: reads .claude/ paths; mentions Claude Code.

This is ourobx/agent-ebpf's own configuration. It tells GitHub Copilot how to work on agent-ebpf 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 agent-ebpf 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

agent-ebpf 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.

AI agent instructions (Claude Skills Manager)

This repository deploys native GitHub Copilot instructions under .github/instructions/*.instructions.md. When you work on files matching a skill's applyTo globs, follow that skill's instruction file fully.

Installed skills

Skill Applies when
file-style-conventions **/* — Apply two lightweight file-hygiene conventions when writing or editing files - no emoji characters outside Markdown (.md) files, and YAML files (.yml/.yaml) end with exactly one trailing newline. Use whenever creating or editing non-Markdown files that might contain emoji, or any .yml/.yaml file.
github-actions-ci **/.github/workflows/*.yml, **/.github/workflows/*.yaml, **/.github/**/*.md, **/test/**, **/src/**, **/*.test.ts, **/*.test.js — Debug GitHub Actions pipeline failures and reproduce CI stages locally. Use when asked to debug CI, fix a failing workflow, reproduce a job with act, or run a pre-flight check before pushing.
self-learning **/* — Maintain a project-local self-learning base of task/command outcomes — record successes and failures with timestamps, durations, and fixes; generate a patterns report (pass rates, recurring errors, known fixes); and surface a learned hint before retrying something that failed before. Use at the start of a session to check learned hints, after running a non-trivial command/skill to record the outcome, when asked "what failed before" or "what did we learn", or to record a manual decision/learning.
skill-creator **/* — Create new skills, modify and improve existing skills, and measure skill performance. Use when users want to create a skill from scratch, edit, or optimize an existing skill, run evals to test a skill, benchmark skill performance with variance analysis, or optimize a skill's description for better triggering accuracy.
skill-feedback-adaptation **/.claude/learning/skill-feedback.jsonl, **/.claude/learning/task-skill-proposals.json, **/.claude/learning/** — AUTO-START on new agent session/window (injected by profile-init-watch for Claude, Cursor, Kiro, Copilot) and on new tasks — analyze the prompt and repo, write task-skill-proposals.json, then read top proposed skills before other work. Also register user disagreement into skill-feedback.jsonl when the user says no, not, wrong, stop, or disagrees with agent output.
skill-official-updater **/* — At the start of a new session, do a cheap check for new or updated official Anthropic skills (github.com/anthropics/skills) and automatically add or update them in skills_library/ (no user prompt). Also use on explicit request ("check for official skill updates", "sync official skills").
skill-usage-insights **/.claude/learning/runs.jsonl, **/.claude/skills/** — Analyze recorded skill usage in this project (.claude/learning/runs.jsonl, written by self-learning) and the skills installed in .claude/skills/ to produce a usage and KPI report - which skills are actively used and reliable, which are failing, and which are unused or low-value, with recommendations on what to add or remove. Use when asked for "skill usage stats", "skill KPIs", "which skills should we add or remove", or "are our installed skills still useful".
vitest-extension-testing **/vitest.config.ts, **/*.bench.test.ts, **/*.solo.test.ts, **/src/**/*.test.ts — Run, debug, and interpret Vitest results in the claude-skills-deployer extension (extension/ directory). Use for unit tests, bench tests, solo tests, and integration tests.

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.
