* Refresh 6 stale instruction files flagged in #2133 Targeted refresh: - blazor: C# 13 to C# 14. Drop the Visual Studio Enterprise mandate so contributors on VS Code or Rider aren't blocked by a paid SKU. Swap VS-only profiling for dotnet-trace and dotnet-counters. - copilot-thought-logging: narrow applyTo from '**' to '**/Copilot-Processing.md'. Replace 9 Windows backslash paths with POSIX './Copilot-Processing.md' so the workflow works on macOS and Linux. - genaiscript: drop the "avoid exception handlers or error checking" line. Replace it with: handle errors at I/O and external API boundaries, let unexpected exceptions surface. - memory-bank: add the required 'description' frontmatter field (was a validation failure). Narrow applyTo from '**' to 'memory-bank/**'. Add an opt-in note so contributors know auxiliary files land in the workspace root. Minor modernization: - azure-functions-typescript: Node.js v20 to v22 LTS. - localization: relative '../../issues' disclaimer link to absolute https://github.com/github/awesome-copilot/issues so it resolves regardless of the localized doc's path. docs/README.instructions.md regenerated by 'npm run build' to pick up the new memory-bank description. * revert applyTo narrow on copilot-thought-logging (#2133 review) aaronpowell flagged that narrowing applyTo from '**' to '**/Copilot-Processing.md' inverts the instruction. The instruction tells Copilot to CREATE Copilot-Processing.md when handling any user request, so it must apply globally, not only when that file is already open. Restore applyTo to '**'. Keep the POSIX path fixes (backslash to './Copilot-Processing.md') and the other 5 file fixes in this PR unchanged. --------- Co-authored-by: Aaron Powell <me@aaron-powell.com>

Install a Plugin
For most users, the Awesome Copilot marketplace is already registered in the Copilot CLI/VS Code, so you can install a plugin directly:
copilot plugin install <plugin-name>@awesome-copilot
If you are using an older Copilot CLI version or a custom setup and see an error that the marketplace is unknown, register it once and then install:
copilot plugin marketplace add github/awesome-copilot
copilot plugin install <plugin-name>@awesome-copilot
