Problem-Based-SRS copilot-instructions.md

Problem-Based-SRS copilot-instructions.md is an instructions file for GitHub Copilot from RafaelGorski/Problem-Based-SRS. It costs 10,911 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Repository instructions for applying a problem-first software requirements method with GitHub Copilot and Claude Code. Software requirements describe what a system should do and the constraints it must follow.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them when changing the repository’s skills, plugin files, commands, or documentation, or when creating and evolving software requirements.
Why use it?
They keep the two assistants’ plugin files and working practices aligned while encouraging simple, problem-focused designs.

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

Problem-Based-SRS 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 5d 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 Instructions for Problem-Based SRS

Project Overview

This repository provides AgentSkills for following a Problem-Based Software Requirements Specification (SRS) methodology. The focus is on enabling AI-assisted requirements engineering through structured, problem-first approaches.

The repository follows the AgentSkills standard and the Claude Code Plugins layout. Compatibility priority is GitHub Copilot first, then Claude Code/Claude.ai.

Plugin Standards

This repository follows the Claude Code plugins specification:

When modifying this repository structure, ensure compliance with these plugin standards.

Compatibility Priority (GHCP → Claude)

  1. GitHub Copilot first: Keep skills and instructions directly usable in Copilot workflows.
  2. Claude second: Keep .claude-plugin/plugin.json, .claude-plugin/marketplace.json, skills/, agents/, hooks/, and settings.json aligned with Claude plugin docs.
  3. Consistency over time: Keep compatibility guidance consistent when it changes.

Core Principles

  1. Problem-First Thinking: Always identify the problem before proposing solutions
  2. Lightweight Methodology: Favor simplicity over complex frameworks
  3. AI-Native Design: Content designed for consumption by AI agents (following AgentSkills standard)
  4. Practical Guidance: Focus on actionable skills and templates

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.
