Pull Request Checklist

  • I have read and followed the CONTRIBUTING.md guidelines.
  • My contribution adds a new instruction, prompt, agent, skill, or workflow file in the correct directory.
  • The file follows the required naming convention.
  • The content is clearly structured and follows the example format.
  • I have tested my instructions, prompt, agent, skill, or workflow with GitHub Copilot.
  • I have run npm start and verified that README.md is up to date.

Description

This pull request updates an existing Copilot skill to align it with the current structure of the github/awesome-copilot repository.

The changes are intentionally minimal and focused on fixing outdated references and output guidance:

  • replaces outdated chat mode references with agents
  • removes old collections guidance
  • removes old prompt-folder assumptions and points to skills instead
  • updates repository resource references to match the current repo structure
  • updates workflow guidance so copilot-setup-steps.md is treated as the authored source and copilot-setup-steps.lock.yml as the compiled artifact
  • fixes an outdated internal instructions reference
  • tightens checklist language around frontmatter and metadata requirements

The purpose of this change is to keep the skill useful without rewriting it more than necessary.


Type of Contribution

  • New instruction file.
  • New prompt file.
  • New agent file.
  • New plugin.
  • New skill file.
  • New agentic workflow.
  • Update to existing instruction, prompt, agent, plugin, skill, or workflow.
  • Other (please specify):

Additional Notes

This update does not introduce a new contribution type. It only revises an existing skill so that it reflects the current awesome-copilot repository conventions.

The change explicitly ignores plugins for this guide, as they are out of scope.
