sap-community-activity-badges: Instructions file for GitHub Copilot

.github/instructions/routes.instructions.md

sap-community-activity-badges routes.instructions.md is an instructions file for GitHub Copilot from SAP-samples/sap-community-activity-badges. It costs 324 tokens per session, scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A set of rules for creating and editing Express web routes that return badge images. Express is a Node.js web framework, and these rules cover its route format, input cleaning, SVG output, errors, and documentation.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when adding or changing files in the project's Express route directory, especially badge endpoints that can return SVG or PNG images.
Why use it?
It prevents common route problems such as unsafe user input, malformed SVG images, incorrect module syntax, and inconsistent errors.

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

sap-community-activity-badges routes.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 4d 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

Express Route Guidelines

Route file pattern

Every route file must export a single function receiving the Express app:

module.exports = (app) => {
  app.get('/myEndpoint/:scnId', async (req, res) => {
    // ...
  })
}

Files are auto-registered by glob in srv/express-server.js — no manual wiring needed.

Module system

Routes MUST be CommonJS (.js). Do NOT use ES Module syntax (import/export).

Input sanitization

Always sanitize SCN IDs before use:

let scnId = req.params.scnId
scnId = scnId.replace(/@/g, '').replace(/https?:\/\//g, '')

SVG responses

  • Set Content-Type: image/svg+xml for SVG responses.
  • XML-escape ALL user-supplied text before embedding in SVG to prevent injection.
  • Support ?png=true query param to convert SVG → PNG via Sharp.
  • Set nocache headers on badge endpoints.

Error handling

Use the branded SVG error renderer from srv/util/error.js — do NOT return JSON error responses from badge endpoints.

Swagger docs

Add JSDoc-style Swagger annotations above each route handler for /docs/ auto-generation.

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.
