### Adding Skills
|
||||
|
||||
Skills are self-contained folders in the `skills/` directory that include a `SKILL.md` file (with front matter) and optional bundled assets.
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Create a new skill folder**: Run `npm run skill:create -- --name <skill-name> --description "<skill description>"`
|
||||
2. **Edit `SKILL.md`**: Ensure the `name` matches the folder name (lowercase with hyphens) and the `description` is clear and non-empty
|
||||
3. **Add optional assets**: Keep bundled assets reasonably sized (under 5MB each) and reference them from `SKILL.md`
|
||||
4. **Validate and update docs**: Run `npm run skill:validate` and then `npm run build` to update the generated README tables
|
||||
|
||||
### Adding Collections
|
||||
|
||||
Collections group related prompts, instructions, and chat modes around specific themes or workflows, making it easier for users to discover and adopt comprehensive toolkits.

# Custom Agent File Guidelines
|
||||
|
||||
Instructions for creating effective and maintainable custom agent files that provide specialized expertise for specific development tasks in GitHub Copilot.
|
||||
|
||||
## Project Context
|
||||
|
||||
- Target audience: Developers creating custom agents for GitHub Copilot
|
||||
- File format: Markdown with YAML frontmatter
|
||||
- File naming convention: lowercase with hyphens (e.g., `test-specialist.agent.md`)
|
||||
- Location: `.github/agents/` directory (repository-level) or `agents/` directory (organization/enterprise-level)
|
||||
- Purpose: Define specialized agents with tailored expertise, tools, and instructions for specific tasks
|
||||
- Official documentation: https://docs.github.com/en/copilot/how-tos/use-copilot-agents/coding-agent/create-custom-agents
|
||||
|
||||
## Required Frontmatter
|
||||
|
||||
Every agent file must include YAML frontmatter with the following fields:
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
---
|
||||
description: 'Brief description of the agent purpose and capabilities'
|
||||
name: 'Agent Display Name'
|
||||
tools: ['read', 'edit', 'search']
|
||||
model: 'Claude Sonnet 4.5'
|
||||
target: 'vscode'
|
||||
infer: true
|
||||
---
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Core Frontmatter Properties
|
||||
|
||||
#### **description** (REQUIRED)
|
||||
- Single-quoted string, clearly stating the agent's purpose and domain expertise
|
||||
- Should be concise (50-150 characters) and actionable
|
||||
- Example: `'Focuses on test coverage, quality, and testing best practices'`
|
||||
|
||||
#### **name** (OPTIONAL)
|
||||
- Display name for the agent in the UI
|
||||
- If omitted, defaults to filename (without `.md` or `.agent.md`)
|
||||
- Use title case and be descriptive
|
||||
- Example: `'Testing Specialist'`
|
||||
|
||||
#### **tools** (OPTIONAL)
|
||||
- List of tool names or aliases the agent can use
|
||||
- Supports comma-separated string or YAML array format
|
||||
- If omitted, agent has access to all available tools
|
||||
- See "Tool Configuration" section below for details
|
||||
|
||||
#### **model** (STRONGLY RECOMMENDED)
|
||||
- Specifies which AI model the agent should use
|
||||
- Supported in VS Code, JetBrains IDEs, Eclipse, and Xcode
|
||||
- Example: `'Claude Sonnet 4.5'`, `'gpt-4'`, `'gpt-4o'`
|
||||
- Choose based on agent complexity and required capabilities
|
||||
|
||||
#### **target** (OPTIONAL)
|
||||
- Specifies target environment: `'vscode'` or `'github-copilot'`
|
||||
- If omitted, agent is available in both environments
|
||||
- Use when agent has environment-specific features
|
||||
|
||||
#### **infer** (OPTIONAL)
|
||||
- Boolean controlling whether Copilot can automatically use this agent based on context
|
||||
- Default: `true` if omitted
|
||||
- Set to `false` to require manual agent selection
|
||||
|
||||
#### **metadata** (OPTIONAL, GitHub.com only)
|
||||
- Object with name-value pairs for agent annotation
|
||||
- Example: `metadata: { category: 'testing', version: '1.0' }`
|
||||
- Not supported in VS Code
|
||||
|
||||
#### **mcp-servers** (OPTIONAL, Organization/Enterprise only)
|
||||
- Configure MCP servers available only to this agent
|
||||
- Only supported for organization/enterprise level agents
|
||||
- See "MCP Server Configuration" section below
|
||||
|
||||
## Tool Configuration
|
||||
|
||||
### Tool Specification Strategies
|
||||
|
||||
**Enable all tools** (default):
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
# Omit tools property entirely, or use:
|
||||
tools: ['*']
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Enable specific tools**:
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
tools: ['read', 'edit', 'search', 'execute']
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Enable MCP server tools**:
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
tools: ['read', 'edit', 'github/*', 'playwright/navigate']
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Disable all tools**:
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
tools: []
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Standard Tool Aliases
|
||||
|
||||
All aliases are case-insensitive:
|
||||
|
||||
| Alias | Alternative Names | Category | Description |
|
||||
|-------|------------------|----------|-------------|
|
||||
| `execute` | shell, Bash, powershell | Shell execution | Execute commands in appropriate shell |
|
||||
| `read` | Read, NotebookRead, view | File reading | Read file contents |
|
||||
| `edit` | Edit, MultiEdit, Write, NotebookEdit | File editing | Edit and modify files |
|
||||
| `search` | Grep, Glob, search | Code search | Search for files or text in files |
|
||||
| `agent` | custom-agent, Task | Agent invocation | Invoke other custom agents |
|
||||
| `web` | WebSearch, WebFetch | Web access | Fetch web content and search |
|
||||
| `todo` | TodoWrite | Task management | Create and manage task lists (VS Code only) |
|
||||
|
||||
### Built-in MCP Server Tools
|
||||
|
||||
**GitHub MCP Server**:
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
tools: ['github/*'] # All GitHub tools
|
||||
tools: ['github/get_file_contents', 'github/search_repositories'] # Specific tools
|
||||
```
|
||||
- All read-only tools available by default
|
||||
- Token scoped to source repository
|
||||
|
||||
**Playwright MCP Server**:
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
tools: ['playwright/*'] # All Playwright tools
|
||||
tools: ['playwright/navigate', 'playwright/screenshot'] # Specific tools
|
||||
```
|
||||
- Configured to access localhost only
|
||||
- Useful for browser automation and testing
|
||||
|
||||
### Tool Selection Best Practices
|
||||
|
||||
- **Principle of Least Privilege**: Only enable tools necessary for the agent's purpose
|
||||
- **Security**: Limit `execute` access unless explicitly required
|
||||
- **Focus**: Fewer tools = clearer agent purpose and better performance
|
||||
- **Documentation**: Comment why specific tools are required for complex configurations
|
||||
|
||||
## Sub-Agent Invocation (Agent Orchestration)
|
||||
|
||||
Agents can invoke other agents using `runSubagent` to orchestrate multi-step workflows.
|
||||
|
||||
### How It Works
|
||||
|
||||
Include `agent` in tools list to enable sub-agent invocation:
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
tools: ['read', 'edit', 'search', 'agent']
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Then invoke other agents with `runSubagent`:
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
const result = await runSubagent({
|
||||
description: 'What this step does',
|
||||
prompt: `You are the [Specialist] specialist.
|
||||
|
||||
Context:
|
||||
- Parameter: ${parameterValue}
|
||||
- Input: ${inputPath}
|
||||
- Output: ${outputPath}
|
||||
|
||||
Task:
|
||||
1. Do the specific work
|
||||
2. Write results to output location
|
||||
3. Return summary of completion`
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Basic Pattern
|
||||
|
||||
Structure each sub-agent call with:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **description**: Clear one-line purpose of the sub-agent invocation
|
||||
2. **prompt**: Detailed instructions with substituted variables
|
||||
|
||||
The prompt should include:
|
||||
- Who the sub-agent is (specialist role)
|
||||
- What context it needs (parameters, paths)
|
||||
- What to do (concrete tasks)
|
||||
- Where to write output
|
||||
- What to return (summary)
|
||||
|
||||
### Example: Multi-Step Processing
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
// Step 1: Process data
|
||||
const processing = await runSubagent({
|
||||
description: 'Transform raw input data',
|
||||
prompt: `You are the Data Processor specialist.
|
||||
|
||||
Project: ${projectName}
|
||||
Input: ${basePath}/raw/
|
||||
Output: ${basePath}/processed/
|
||||
|
||||
Task:
|
||||
1. Read all files from input directory
|
||||
2. Apply transformations
|
||||
3. Write processed files to output
|
||||
4. Create summary: ${basePath}/processed/summary.md
|
||||
|
||||
Return: Number of files processed and any issues found`
|
||||
});
|
||||
|
||||
// Step 2: Analyze (depends on Step 1)
|
||||
const analysis = await runSubagent({
|
||||
description: 'Analyze processed data',
|
||||
prompt: `You are the Data Analyst specialist.
|
||||
|
||||
Project: ${projectName}
|
||||
Input: ${basePath}/processed/
|
||||
Output: ${basePath}/analysis/
|
||||
|
||||
Task:
|
||||
1. Read processed files from input
|
||||
2. Generate analysis report
|
||||
3. Write to: ${basePath}/analysis/report.md
|
||||
|
||||
Return: Key findings and identified patterns`
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Key Points
|
||||
|
||||
- **Pass variables in prompts**: Use `${variableName}` for all dynamic values
|
||||
- **Keep prompts focused**: Clear, specific tasks for each sub-agent
|
||||
- **Return summaries**: Each sub-agent should report what it accomplished
|
||||
- **Sequential execution**: Use `await` to maintain order when steps depend on each other
|
||||
- **Error handling**: Check results before proceeding to dependent steps
|
||||
|
||||
### ⚠️ Tool Availability Requirement
|
||||
|
||||
**Critical**: If a sub-agent requires specific tools (e.g., `edit`, `execute`, `search`), the orchestrator must include those tools in its own `tools` list. Sub-agents cannot access tools that aren't available to their parent orchestrator.
|
||||
|
||||
**Example**:
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
# If your sub-agents need to edit files, execute commands, or search code
|
||||
tools: ['read', 'edit', 'search', 'execute', 'agent']
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The orchestrator's tool permissions act as a ceiling for all invoked sub-agents. Plan your tool list carefully to ensure all sub-agents have the tools they need.
|
||||
|
||||
### ⚠️ Important Limitation
|
||||
|
||||
**Sub-agent orchestration is NOT suitable for large-scale data processing.** Avoid using `runSubagent` when:
|
||||
- Processing hundreds or thousands of files
|
||||
- Handling large datasets
|
||||
- Performing bulk transformations on big codebases
|
||||
- Orchestrating more than 5-10 sequential steps
|
||||
|
||||
Each sub-agent call adds latency and context overhead. For high-volume processing, implement logic directly in a single agent instead. Use orchestration only for coordinating specialized tasks on focused, manageable datasets.
|
||||
|
||||
## Agent Prompt Structure
|
||||
|
||||
The markdown content below the frontmatter defines the agent's behavior, expertise, and instructions. Well-structured prompts typically include:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Agent Identity and Role**: Who the agent is and its primary role
|
||||
2. **Core Responsibilities**: What specific tasks the agent performs
|
||||
3. **Approach and Methodology**: How the agent works to accomplish tasks
|
||||
4. **Guidelines and Constraints**: What to do/avoid and quality standards
|
||||
5. **Output Expectations**: Expected output format and quality
|
||||
|
||||
### Prompt Writing Best Practices
|
||||
|
||||
- **Be Specific and Direct**: Use imperative mood ("Analyze", "Generate"); avoid vague terms
|
||||
- **Define Boundaries**: Clearly state scope limits and constraints
|
||||
- **Include Context**: Explain domain expertise and reference relevant frameworks
|
||||
- **Focus on Behavior**: Describe how the agent should think and work
|
||||
- **Use Structured Format**: Headers, bullets, and lists make prompts scannable
|
||||
|
||||
## Variable Definition and Extraction
|
||||
|
||||
Agents can define dynamic parameters to extract values from user input and use them throughout the agent's behavior and sub-agent communications. This enables flexible, context-aware agents that adapt to user-provided data.
|
||||
|
||||
### When to Use Variables
|
||||
|
||||
**Use variables when**:
|
||||
- Agent behavior depends on user input
|
||||
- Need to pass dynamic values to sub-agents
|
||||
- Want to make agents reusable across different contexts
|
||||
- Require parameterized workflows
|
||||
- Need to track or reference user-provided context
|
||||
|
||||
**Examples**:
|
||||
- Extract project name from user prompt
|
||||
- Capture certification name for pipeline processing
|
||||
- Identify file paths or directories
|
||||
- Extract configuration options
|
||||
- Parse feature names or module identifiers
|
||||
|
||||
### Variable Declaration Pattern
|
||||
|
||||
Define variables section early in the agent prompt to document expected parameters:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
# Agent Name
|
||||
|
||||
## Dynamic Parameters
|
||||
|
||||
- **Parameter Name**: Description and usage
|
||||
- **Another Parameter**: How it's extracted and used
|
||||
|
||||
## Your Mission
|
||||
|
||||
Process [PARAMETER_NAME] to accomplish [task].
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Variable Extraction Methods
|
||||
|
||||
#### 1. **Explicit User Input**
|
||||
Ask the user to provide the variable if not detected in the prompt:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
## Your Mission
|
||||
|
||||
Process the project by analyzing your codebase.
|
||||
|
||||
### Step 1: Identify Project
|
||||
If no project name is provided, **ASK THE USER** for:
|
||||
- Project name or identifier
|
||||
- Base path or directory location
|
||||
- Configuration type (if applicable)
|
||||
|
||||
Use this information to contextualize all subsequent tasks.
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
#### 2. **Implicit Extraction from Prompt**
|
||||
Automatically extract variables from the user's natural language input:
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
// Example: Extract certification name from user input
|
||||
const userInput = "Process My Certification";
|
||||
|
||||
// Extract key information
|
||||
const certificationName = extractCertificationName(userInput);
|
||||
// Result: "My Certification"
|
||||
|
||||
const basePath = `certifications/${certificationName}`;
|
||||
// Result: "certifications/My Certification"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
#### 3. **Contextual Variable Resolution**
|
||||
Use file context or workspace information to derive variables:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||

|
||||
1. **From User Prompt**: First, look for explicit mentions in user input
|
||||
2. **From File Context**: Check current file name or path
|
||||
3. **From Workspace**: Use workspace folder or active project
|
||||
4. **From Settings**: Reference configuration files
|
||||
5. **Ask User**: If all else fails, request missing information
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Using Variables in Agent Prompts
|
||||
|
||||
#### Variable Substitution in Instructions
|
||||
|
||||
Use template variables in agent prompts to make them dynamic:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
# Agent Name
|
||||
|
||||
## Dynamic Parameters
|
||||
- **Project Name**: ${projectName}
|
||||
- **Base Path**: ${basePath}
|
||||
- **Output Directory**: ${outputDir}
|
||||
|
||||
## Your Mission
|
||||
|
||||
Process the **${projectName}** project located at `${basePath}`.
|
||||
|
||||
## Process Steps
|
||||
|
||||
1. Read input from: `${basePath}/input/`
|
||||
2. Process files according to project configuration
|
||||
3. Write results to: `${outputDir}/`
|
||||
4. Generate summary report
|
||||
|
||||
## Quality Standards
|
||||
|
||||
- Maintain project-specific coding standards for **${projectName}**
|
||||
- Follow directory structure: `${basePath}/[structure]`
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
#### Passing Variables to Sub-Agents
|
||||
|
||||
When invoking a sub-agent, pass all context through template variables in the prompt:
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
// Extract and prepare variables
|
||||
const basePath = `projects/${projectName}`;
|
||||
const inputPath = `${basePath}/src/`;
|
||||
const outputPath = `${basePath}/docs/`;
|
||||
|
||||
// Pass to sub-agent with all variables substituted
|
||||
const result = await runSubagent({
|
||||
description: 'Generate project documentation',
|
||||
prompt: `You are the Documentation specialist.
|
||||
|
||||
Project: ${projectName}
|
||||
Input: ${inputPath}
|
||||
Output: ${outputPath}
|
||||
|
||||
Task:
|
||||
1. Read source files from ${inputPath}
|
||||
2. Generate comprehensive documentation
|
||||
3. Write to ${outputPath}/index.md
|
||||
4. Include code examples and usage guides
|
||||
|
||||
Return: Summary of documentation generated (file count, word count)`
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The sub-agent receives all necessary context embedded in the prompt. Variables are resolved before sending the prompt, so the sub-agent works with concrete paths and values, not variable placeholders.
|
||||
|
||||
### Real-World Example: Code Review Orchestrator
|
||||
|
||||
Example of a simple orchestrator that validates code through multiple specialized agents:
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
async function reviewCodePipeline(repositoryName, prNumber) {
|
||||
const basePath = `projects/${repositoryName}/pr-${prNumber}`;
|
||||
|
||||
// Step 1: Security Review
|
||||
const security = await runSubagent({
|
||||
description: 'Scan for security vulnerabilities',
|
||||
prompt: `You are the Security Reviewer specialist.
|
||||
|
||||
Repository: ${repositoryName}
|
||||
PR: ${prNumber}
|
||||
Code: ${basePath}/changes/
|
||||
|
||||
Task:
|
||||
1. Scan code for OWASP Top 10 vulnerabilities
|
||||
2. Check for injection attacks, auth flaws
|
||||
3. Write findings to ${basePath}/security-review.md
|
||||
|
||||
Return: List of critical, high, and medium issues found`
|
||||
});
|
||||
|
||||
// Step 2: Test Coverage Check
|
||||
const coverage = await runSubagent({
|
||||
description: 'Verify test coverage for changes',
|
||||
prompt: `You are the Test Coverage specialist.
|
||||
|
||||
Repository: ${repositoryName}
|
||||
PR: ${prNumber}
|
||||
Changes: ${basePath}/changes/
|
||||
|
||||
Task:
|
||||
1. Analyze code coverage for modified files
|
||||
2. Identify untested critical paths
|
||||
3. Write report to ${basePath}/coverage-report.md
|
||||
|
||||
Return: Current coverage percentage and gaps`
|
||||
});
|
||||
|
||||
// Step 3: Aggregate Results
|
||||
const finalReport = await runSubagent({
|
||||
description: 'Compile all review findings',
|
||||
prompt: `You are the Review Aggregator specialist.
|
||||
|
||||
Repository: ${repositoryName}
|
||||
Reports: ${basePath}/*.md
|
||||
|
||||
Task:
|
||||
1. Read all review reports from ${basePath}/
|
||||
2. Synthesize findings into single report
|
||||
3. Determine overall verdict (APPROVE/NEEDS_FIXES/BLOCK)
|
||||
4. Write to ${basePath}/final-review.md
|
||||
|
||||
Return: Final verdict and executive summary`
|
||||
});
|
||||
|
||||
return finalReport;
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This pattern applies to any orchestration scenario: extract variables, call sub-agents with clear context, await results.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
### Variable Best Practices
|
||||
|
||||
#### 1. **Clear Documentation**
|
||||
Always document what variables are expected:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
## Required Variables
|
||||
- **projectName**: The name of the project (string, required)
|
||||
- **basePath**: Root directory for project files (path, required)
|
||||
|
||||
## Optional Variables
|
||||
- **mode**: Processing mode - quick/standard/detailed (enum, default: standard)
|
||||
- **outputFormat**: Output format - markdown/json/html (enum, default: markdown)
|
||||
|
||||
## Derived Variables
|
||||
- **outputDir**: Automatically set to ${basePath}/output
|
||||
- **logFile**: Automatically set to ${basePath}/.log.md
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
#### 2. **Consistent Naming**
|
||||
Use consistent variable naming conventions:
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
// Good: Clear, descriptive naming
|
||||
const variables = {
|
||||
projectName, // What project to work on
|
||||
basePath, // Where project files are located
|
||||
outputDirectory, // Where to save results
|
||||
processingMode, // How to process (detail level)
|
||||
configurationPath // Where config files are
|
||||
};
|
||||
|
||||
// Avoid: Ambiguous or inconsistent
|
||||
const bad_variables = {
|
||||
name, // Too generic
|
||||
path, // Unclear which path
|
||||
mode, // Too short
|
||||
config // Too vague
|
||||
};
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
#### 3. **Validation and Constraints**
|
||||
Document valid values and constraints:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
## Variable Constraints
|
||||
|
||||
**projectName**:
|
||||
- Type: string (alphanumeric, hyphens, underscores allowed)
|
||||
- Length: 1-100 characters
|
||||
- Required: yes
|
||||
- Pattern: `/^[a-zA-Z0-9_-]+$/`
|
||||
|
||||
**processingMode**:
|
||||
- Type: enum
|
||||
- Valid values: "quick" (< 5min), "standard" (5-15min), "detailed" (15+ min)
|
||||
- Default: "standard"
|
||||
- Required: no
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## MCP Server Configuration (Organization/Enterprise Only)
|
||||
|
||||
MCP servers extend agent capabilities with additional tools. Only supported for organization and enterprise-level agents.
|
||||
|
||||
### Configuration Format
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
---
|
||||
name: my-custom-agent
|
||||
description: 'Agent with MCP integration'
|
||||
tools: ['read', 'edit', 'custom-mcp/tool-1']
|
||||
mcp-servers:
|
||||
custom-mcp:
|
||||
type: 'local'
|
||||
command: 'some-command'
|
||||
args: ['--arg1', '--arg2']
|
||||
tools: ["*"]
|
||||
env:
|
||||
ENV_VAR_NAME: ${{ secrets.API_KEY }}
|
||||
---
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### MCP Server Properties
|
||||
|
||||
- **type**: Server type (`'local'` or `'stdio'`)
|
||||
- **command**: Command to start the MCP server
|
||||
- **args**: Array of command arguments
|
||||
- **tools**: Tools to enable from this server (`["*"]` for all)
|
||||
- **env**: Environment variables (supports secrets)
|
||||
|
||||
### Environment Variables and Secrets
|
||||
|
||||
Secrets must be configured in repository settings under "copilot" environment.
|
||||
|
||||
**Supported syntax**:
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
env:
|
||||
# Environment variable only
|
||||
VAR_NAME: COPILOT_MCP_ENV_VAR_VALUE
|
||||
|
||||
# Variable with header
|
||||
VAR_NAME: $COPILOT_MCP_ENV_VAR_VALUE
|
||||
VAR_NAME: ${COPILOT_MCP_ENV_VAR_VALUE}
|
||||
|
||||
# GitHub Actions-style (YAML only)
|
||||
VAR_NAME: ${{ secrets.COPILOT_MCP_ENV_VAR_VALUE }}
|
||||
VAR_NAME: ${{ var.COPILOT_MCP_ENV_VAR_VALUE }}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## File Organization and Naming
|
||||
|
||||
### Repository-Level Agents
|
||||
- Location: `.github/agents/`
|
||||
- Scope: Available only in the specific repository
|
||||
- Access: Uses repository-configured MCP servers
|
||||
|
||||
### Organization/Enterprise-Level Agents
|
||||
- Location: `.github-private/agents/` (then move to `agents/` root)
|
||||
- Scope: Available across all repositories in org/enterprise
|
||||
- Access: Can configure dedicated MCP servers
|
||||
|
||||
### Naming Conventions
|
||||
- Use lowercase with hyphens: `test-specialist.agent.md`
|
||||
- Name should reflect agent purpose
|
||||
- Filename becomes default agent name (if `name` not specified)
|
||||
- Allowed characters: `.`, `-`, `_`, `a-z`, `A-Z`, `0-9`
|
||||
|
||||
## Agent Processing and Behavior
|
||||
|
||||
### Versioning
|
||||
- Based on Git commit SHAs for the agent file
|
||||
- Create branches/tags for different agent versions
|
||||
- Instantiated using latest version for repository/branch
|
||||
- PR interactions use same agent version for consistency
|
||||
|
||||
### Name Conflicts
|
||||
Priority (highest to lowest):
|
||||
1. Repository-level agent
|
||||
2. Organization-level agent
|
||||
3. Enterprise-level agent
|
||||
|
||||
Lower-level configurations override higher-level ones with the same name.
|
||||
|
||||
### Tool Processing
|
||||
- `tools` list filters available tools (built-in and MCP)
|
||||
- No tools specified = all tools enabled
|
||||
- Empty list (`[]`) = all tools disabled
|
||||
- Specific list = only those tools enabled
|
||||
- Unrecognized tool names are ignored (allows environment-specific tools)
|
||||
|
||||
### MCP Server Processing Order
|
||||
1. Out-of-the-box MCP servers (e.g., GitHub MCP)
|
||||
2. Custom agent MCP configuration (org/enterprise only)
|
||||
3. Repository-level MCP configurations
|
||||
|
||||
Each level can override settings from previous levels.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
### Testing Specialist
|
||||
**Purpose**: Focus on test coverage and quality
|
||||
**Tools**: All tools (for comprehensive test creation)
|
||||
**Approach**: Analyze, identify gaps, write tests, avoid production code changes
|
||||
|
||||
### Implementation Planner
|
||||
**Purpose**: Create detailed technical plans and specifications
|
||||
**Tools**: Limited to `['read', 'search', 'edit']`
|
||||
**Approach**: Analyze requirements, create documentation, avoid implementation
|
||||
|
||||
### Code Reviewer
|
||||
**Purpose**: Review code quality and provide feedback
|
||||
**Tools**: `['read', 'search']` only
|
||||
**Approach**: Analyze, suggest improvements, no direct modifications
|
||||
|
||||
### Refactoring Specialist
|
||||
**Purpose**: Improve code structure and maintainability
|
||||
**Tools**: `['read', 'search', 'edit']`
|
||||
**Approach**: Analyze patterns, propose refactorings, implement safely
|
||||
|
||||
### Security Auditor
|
||||
**Purpose**: Identify security issues and vulnerabilities
|
||||
**Tools**: `['read', 'search', 'web']`
|
||||
**Approach**: Scan code, check against OWASP, report findings
|
||||
|
||||

## Version Compatibility Notes
|
||||
|
||||
### GitHub.com (Coding Agent)
|
||||
- ✅ Fully supports all standard frontmatter properties
|
||||
- ✅ Repository and org/enterprise level agents
|
||||
- ✅ MCP server configuration (org/enterprise)
|
||||
- ❌ Does not support `model`, `argument-hint`, `handoffs` properties
|
||||
|
||||
### VS Code / JetBrains / Eclipse / Xcode
|
||||
- ✅ Supports `model` property for AI model selection
|
||||
- ✅ Supports `argument-hint` and `handoffs` properties
|
||||
- ✅ User profile and workspace-level agents
|
||||
- ❌ Cannot configure MCP servers at repository level
|
||||
- ⚠️ Some properties may behave differently
|
||||
|
||||
When creating agents for multiple environments, focus on common properties and test in all target environments. Use `target` property to create environment-specific agents when necessary.

Use 'Azure MCP/documentation' tool to find the minimal role definition that matches the desired permissions the user wants to assign to an identity (If no built-in role matches the desired permissions, use 'Azure MCP/extension_cli_generate' tool to create a custom role definition with the desired permissions). Use 'Azure MCP/extension_cli_generate' tool to generate the CLI commands needed to assign that role to the identity and use the 'Azure MCP/bicepschema' and the 'Azure MCP/get_bestpractices' tool to provide a Bicep code snippet for adding the role assignment.

# Snowflake Semantic Views
|
||||
|
||||
## One-Time Setup
|
||||
|
||||
- Verify Snowflake CLI installation by opening a new terminal and running `snow --help`.
|
||||
- If Snowflake CLI is missing or the user cannot install it, direct them to https://docs.snowflake.com/en/developer-guide/snowflake-cli/installation/installation.
|
||||
- Configure a Snowflake connection with `snow connection add` per https://docs.snowflake.com/en/developer-guide/snowflake-cli/connecting/configure-connections#add-a-connection.
|
||||
- Use the configured connection for all validation and execution steps.
|
||||
|
||||
## Workflow For Each Semantic View Request
|
||||
|
||||
1. Confirm the target database, schema, role, warehouse, and final semantic view name.
|
||||
2. Confirm the model follows a star schema (facts with conformed dimensions).
|
||||
3. Draft the semantic view DDL using the official syntax:
|
||||
- https://docs.snowflake.com/en/sql-reference/sql/create-semantic-view
|
||||
4. Populate synonyms and comments for each dimension, fact, and metric:
|
||||
- Read Snowflake table/view/column comments first (preferred source):
|
||||
- https://docs.snowflake.com/en/sql-reference/sql/comment
|
||||
- If comments or synonyms are missing, ask whether you can create them, whether the user wants to provide text, or whether you should draft suggestions for approval.
|
||||
5. Create a temporary validation name (for example, append `__tmp_validate`) while keeping the same database and schema.
|
||||
6. Always validate by sending the DDL to Snowflake via Snowflake CLI before finalizing:
|
||||
- Use `snow sql` to execute the statement with the configured connection.
|
||||
- If flags differ by version, check `snow sql --help` and use the connection option shown there.
|
||||
7. If validation fails, iterate on the DDL and re-run the validation step until it succeeds.
|
||||
8. Apply the final DDL (create or alter) using the real semantic view name.
|
||||
9. Clean up any temporary semantic view created during validation.
|
||||
|
||||
## Synonyms And Comments (Required)
|
||||
|
||||
- Use the semantic view syntax for synonyms and comments:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
WITH SYNONYMS [ = ] ( 'synonym' [ , ... ] )
|
||||
COMMENT = 'comment_about_dim_fact_or_metric'
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
- Treat synonyms as informational only; do not use them to reference dimensions, facts, or metrics elsewhere.
|
||||
- Use Snowflake comments as the preferred and first source for synonyms and comments:
|
||||
- https://docs.snowflake.com/en/sql-reference/sql/comment
|
||||
- If Snowflake comments are missing, ask whether you can create them, whether the user wants to provide text, or whether you should draft suggestions for approval.
|
||||
- Do not invent synonyms or comments without user approval.
|
||||
|
||||
## Validation Pattern (Required)
|
||||
|
||||
- Never skip validation. Always execute the DDL against Snowflake with Snowflake CLI before presenting it as final.
|
||||
- Prefer a temporary name for validation to avoid clobbering the real view.
|
||||
|
||||
## Example CLI Validation (Template)
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Replace placeholders with real values.
|
||||
snow sql -q "<CREATE OR ALTER SEMANTIC VIEW ...>" --connection <connection_name>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
If the CLI uses a different connection flag in your version, run:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
snow sql --help
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Notes
|
||||
|
||||
- Treat installation and connection setup as one-time steps, but confirm they are done before the first validation.
|
||||
- Keep the final semantic view definition identical to the validated temporary definition except for the name.
|
||||
- Do not omit synonyms or comments; consider them required for completeness even if optional in syntax.
