copilot-instructions: Instructions file for GitHub Copilot

.github/instructions/static-analysis-sonarqube.instructions.md

copilot-instructions static-analysis-sonarqube.instructions.md is an instructions file for GitHub Copilot from ThiagoGuislotti/copilot-instructions. It costs 1,028 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

A set of instructions for setting up SonarQube, a code-quality and security analysis tool, with Docker, test coverage reports, and project rules.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to configure SonarQube projects, collect coverage for several programming languages, and enforce quality gates in development.
Why use it?
It provides a defined setup for checking code quality, reliability, security, duplication, and test coverage.

Instructions file for GitHub Copilot

Written for GitHub Copilot: a Copilot instructions file.

This is ThiagoGuislotti/copilot-instructions's own configuration. It tells GitHub Copilot how to work on copilot-instructions 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 copilot-instructions 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

copilot-instructions static-analysis-sonarqube.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.

SonarQube Setup

Docker-compose with PostgreSQL; configured sonar-scanner-cli; quality gates set; 80%+ coverage threshold for new code; max duplication 3%; maintainability A; reliability/security A.

Project Configuration

sonar-project.properties at root; exclusions for generated code; specific inclusions; language analyzers; custom rules when needed; baseline set; incremental analysis.

sonar.projectKey=NetToolsKit

Coverage Integration

Test coverage reports; jacoco for Java; coverage.py for Python; nyc for Node.js; coverlet for .NET; OpenCover/ReportGenerator; merge reports; exclude test files.

Quality Gates

Zero tolerance for blocker/critical; differential coverage; duplication %; maintainability; reliability; security; hotspots reviewed.

  • Fail PR if new code has coverage <80%
  • Fail if duplication >3%
  • Fail if critical issues present
  • Review hotspots before merge

CI/CD Integration

sonar-scanner in pipeline; quality gate status check; PR decoration; fail build on gate fail; sonar token via secrets; branch and PR analysis.

Security

OWASP detection; dependency check; hotspot review; sensitive data exposure; SQL injection; XSS; authz/authn issues.

  • Enable dependency-check
  • Ensure SQL queries parameterized
  • Lint for XSS sinks
  • Review hotspots weekly

Code Smells

Complexity metrics; naming; unused code; magic numbers; long methods/classes; deep nesting; cognitive complexity; technical debt.

  • Set thresholds for method length (<=50)
  • Class size (<=1000 lines)
  • Flag cognitive complexity >15
  • Remove unused code and magic numbers

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.
