Create Copilot Instructions

Create or update AGENTS.md file for the project.

Steps

  1. Review the documentation at https://docs.github.com/en/copilot/customizing-copilot/adding-repository-custom-instructions-for-github-copilot to understand what constitutes a well-crafted AGENTS.md or copilot-instructions.md.

  2. Conduct a thorough examination of the codebase to understand the architecture and stylistic conventions.

  3. Check if AGENTS.md or .github/copilot-instructions.md already exists. .github/copilot-instructions.md takes precedence over AGENTS.md. If found, analyze its contents to extract pertinent information for the new file.

  4. Compose a AGENTS.md document including:

    • A concise summary of the project's objectives and functionalities.
    • A clear delineation of coding style and formatting standards.
    • Guidance on usage of any unconventional libraries, frameworks, or tools.
    • Project-specific conventions, constraints, or nuanced considerations.
    • The designated language for in-code annotations and commentary.
