* Add issue-fields-migration skill Standalone skill to bulk-copy field values from Project V2 fields to org-level issue fields. Includes 5-phase workflow (discovery, option mapping, data scan, preview/dry-run, execution) with API references for issue fields REST API and Projects V2 API. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> * Expand issue-fields-migration skill to support label migration Add support for migrating repo-based labels to org-level issue fields, in addition to the existing project field migration flow.

📄 llms.txt
An llms.txt file following the llmstxt.org specification is available on the GitHub Pages site. This machine-readable file makes it easy for Large Language Models to discover and understand all available agents, instructions, and skills, providing a structured overview of the repository's resources with names and descriptions.
🔧 How to Use
🔌 Plugins
Plugins are installable packages that bundle related agents and skills, making it easy to install a curated set of resources.
Installing Plugins
First, add the Awesome Copilot marketplace to your Copilot CLI:
copilot plugin marketplace add github/awesome-copilot
Then install any plugin:
copilot plugin install <plugin-name>@awesome-copilot
Alternatively, you can use the /plugin command within a Copilot chat session to browse and install plugins interactively.
🤖 Custom Agents
Custom agents can be used in Copilot coding agent (CCA), VS Code, and Copilot CLI (coming soon). For CCA, when assigning an issue to Copilot, select the custom agent from the provided list. In VS Code, you can activate the custom agent in the agents session, alongside built-in agents like Plan and Agent.
🎯 Skills
Skills are self-contained folders with instructions and bundled resources that enhance AI capabilities for specialized tasks. They can be accessed through the GitHub Copilot interface or installed via plugins.
📋 Instructions
Instructions automatically apply to files based on their patterns and provide contextual guidance for coding standards, frameworks, and best practices.
🪝 Hooks
Hooks enable automated workflows triggered by specific events during GitHub Copilot coding agent sessions (like sessionStart, sessionEnd, userPromptSubmitted). They can automate tasks like logging, auto-committing changes, or integrating with external services.
⚡ Agentic Workflows
Agentic Workflows are AI-powered repository automations that run coding agents in GitHub Actions. Defined in markdown with natural language instructions, they enable event-triggered and scheduled automation — from issue triage to daily reports.
🎯 Why Use Awesome GitHub Copilot?
- Productivity: Pre-built agents and instructions save time and provide consistent results.
- Best Practices: Benefit from community-curated coding standards and patterns.
- Specialized Assistance: Access expert-level guidance through specialized custom agents.
- Continuous Learning: Stay updated with the latest patterns and practices across technologies.
