symfony-flex-backend: Instructions file for GitHub Copilot

.github/copilot-instructions.md

symfony-flex-backend copilot-instructions.md is an instructions file for GitHub Copilot from tarlepp/symfony-flex-backend. It costs 365 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Repository instructions for a Symfony and Doctrine project, where Symfony is a PHP web framework and Doctrine is a database-mapping library.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them when adding or changing PHP code, database entities, repositories, services, resources, or REST endpoints. They also describe where controllers and related classes should live.
Why use it?
They give a coding agent rules for project architecture, security, change scope, collaboration, commands, validation, and documentation instead of leaving those decisions implicit.

Instructions file for GitHub Copilot

Written for GitHub Copilot: a Copilot instructions file. Also seen: mentions CLAUDE.md; mentions AGENTS.md.

This is tarlepp/symfony-flex-backend's own configuration. It tells GitHub Copilot how to work on symfony-flex-backend 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 symfony-flex-backend 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

symfony-flex-backend 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 2d 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 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.
