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

my-awesome-copilot markdown.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 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.

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.

Origin

This is a copy

100% identical to custom_github_copilot_agent_builder markdown.instructions.md — 1 line differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 52 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Markdown Content Rules

The following markdown content rules are enforced in the validators:

  1. Headings: Use appropriate heading levels (H2, H3, etc.) to structure your content. Do not use an H1 heading, as this will be generated based on the title.
  2. Lists: Use bullet points or numbered lists for lists. Ensure proper indentation and spacing.
  3. Code Blocks: Use fenced code blocks for code snippets. Specify the language for syntax highlighting.
  4. Links: Use proper markdown syntax for links. Ensure that links are valid and accessible.
  5. Images: Use proper markdown syntax for images. Include alt text for accessibility.
  6. Tables: Use markdown tables for tabular data. Ensure proper formatting and alignment.
  7. Line Length: Limit line length to 400 characters for readability.
  8. Whitespace: Use appropriate whitespace to separate sections and improve readability.
  9. Front Matter: Include YAML front matter at the beginning of the file with required metadata fields.

Formatting and Structure

Follow these guidelines for formatting and structuring your markdown content:

  • Headings: Use ## for H2 and ### for H3. Ensure that headings are used in a hierarchical manner. Recommend restructuring if content includes H4, and more strongly recommend for H5.
  • Lists: Use - for bullet points and 1. for numbered lists. Indent nested lists with two spaces.
  • Code Blocks: Use triple backticks () to create fenced code blocks. Specify the language after the opening backticks for syntax highlighting (e.g., csharp).
  • Links: Use [link text](URL) for links. Ensure that the link text is descriptive and the URL is valid.
  • Images: Use ![alt text](image URL) for images. Include a brief description of the image in the alt text.
  • Tables: Use | to create tables. Ensure that columns are properly aligned and headers are included.
  • Line Length: Break lines at 80 characters to improve readability. Use soft line breaks for long paragraphs.
  • Whitespace: Use blank lines to separate sections and improve readability. Avoid excessive whitespace.

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.
