.github/copilot-instructions.md

thunder-cli copilot-instructions.md is an instructions file for GitHub Copilot from Thunder-Compute/thunder-cli. It costs 147 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Project instructions for Thunder Compute, a cloud service that provides GPUs for AI and machine-learning workloads. They document its command-line tool and remote MCP connection for AI coding agents.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them when a project needs cloud GPUs, including creating and managing instances, running commands or background jobs, checking GPU availability and prices, handling files, forwarding ports, and managing snapshots or SSH keys.
Why use it?
They explain how to connect an agent to the service and identify the available operations without guessing the endpoint or authentication method.

Instructions file for GitHub Copilot

Written for GitHub Copilot: a Copilot instructions file.

This is Thunder-Compute/thunder-cli's own configuration. It tells GitHub Copilot how to work on thunder-cli 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 thunder-cli 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

thunder-cli 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 2mo 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.

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.
