Prompts from Awesome GitHub Copilot

  • Build GitHub Copilot workflows with Xquik X API SDKs, REST endpoints, hosted Apify Actor runs, MCP tools, TweetClaw OpenClaw plugin installs, signed webhooks, tweet search, user lookup, follower exports, media actions, and agent automation.

    by github

  • Write a coding standards document for a project using the coding styles from the file(s) and/or folder(s) passed as arguments in the prompt.

    by github

  • Create a new workshop or use an existing directory as one. Handles two paths: (A) use an existing local directory the operator points at, or (B) create a new private GitHub repo in the signed-in account. Never creates a repo inside another repo.

    by github

  • Guides the Copilot CLI on how to use the WorkIQ CLI/MCP server to query Microsoft 365 Copilot data (emails, meetings, docs, Teams, people) for live context, summaries, and recommendations.

    by github

  • UWP-to-WinUI 3 migration reference. Maps legacy UWP APIs to correct Windows App SDK equivalents with before/after code snippets. Covers namespace changes, threading (CoreDispatcher to DispatcherQueue), windowing (CoreWindow to AppWindow), dialogs, pickers, sharing, printing, background tasks, and the most common Copilot code generation mistakes.

    by github

  • Find and explore Windows desktop APIs. Use when building features that need platform capabilities — camera, file access, notifications, UI controls, AI/ML, sensors, networking, etc. Discovers the right API for a task and retrieves full type details (methods, properties, events, enumeration values).

  • Ask Copilot what files it needs to see before answering a question

    by github

  • Make a web app agent-ready — propose a WebMCP tool manifest, integrate, verify in a real browser, heal; unrelated code stays untouched. Use for "webmcpify", "add WebMCP", or "expose app actions to AI agents".

    by github

  • Toolkit for interacting with and testing local web applications using Playwright. Supports verifying frontend functionality, debugging UI behavior, capturing browser screenshots, and viewing browser logs.

    by github

  • This skill enables visual inspection of websites running locally or remotely to identify and fix design issues. Triggers on requests like "review website design", "check the UI", "fix the layout", "find design problems". Detects issues with responsive design, accessibility, visual consistency, and layout breakage, then performs fixes at the source code level.

  • Guidelines for proper localization of VS Code extensions, following VS Code extension development guidelines, libraries and good practices

    by github

  • Guidelines for contributing commands in VS Code extensions. Indicates naming convention, visibility, localization and other relevant attributes, following VS Code extension development guidelines, libraries and good practices

  • Review a proposed AI-agent action or human-approval packet before execution. Use when an agent wants to run a consequential tool, command, deployment, message, purchase, credential operation, or data mutation; when checking whether approval still matches the exact action; or when auditing action evidence for forged results, parameter swaps, replay, correlated reviewers, missing evidence, expiry, or stale monitoring. Produce an evidence-based review only—never execute or authorize the action.

  • Vcpkg

    skill

    Guide for setting up vcpkg in C++ projects, managing dependency versions, and cross-compiling. Covers manifest initialization, CMake and Visual Studio integration, classic-to-manifest migration, version pinning, baselines, overrides, triplets, and cross-compilation. Use when a user is working with vcpkg project setup, installation, version management, or cross-platform builds. For specialized tasks, additional references cover custom registries and overlay ports (references/registries.md), CI/CD and binary caching (references/ci.md), and troubleshooting and dependency lifecycle (references/troubleshooting.md).

    by github

  • Use when the user asks to personalize the GitHub Copilot CLI assistant, adapt Copilot to their style, use vardoger, or analyze their Copilot CLI conversation history. Reads the local session directory at `~/.copilot/session-state/`, extracts recurring preferences and conventions, and writes a fenced personalization block into `~/.copilot/copilot-instructions.md`. Runs entirely on the user's machine via the local `vardoger` CLI (`pipx install vardoger`); no network calls and no uploads. Triggers: 'personalize my copilot', 'analyze my copilot history', 'tailor copilot to me', 'run vardoger', 'update my copilot instructions from history', 'make copilot learn my style'.

    by github

  • Use Redis over HTTP from serverless and edge runtimes with @upstash/redis, and add rate limiting with @upstash/ratelimit. Use when the user mentions Upstash Redis, needs Redis from a Next.js route handler or middleware, Vercel, Cloudflare Workers, Deno, or Bun without TCP connection pooling, or wants cache-aside with TTLs, a session store, counters, or a 429 rate limiter using fixed window, sliding window, or token bucket. DO NOT use for self-hosted or TCP Redis clients (ioredis, node-redis), Redis Cluster administration, or vector similarity search.

  • Update an existing specification file for the solution, optimized for Generative AI consumption based on new requirements or updates to any existing code.

    by github

  • Update a markdown file section with an index/table of files from a specified folder.

    by github

  • Update the llms.txt file in the root folder to reflect changes in documentation or specifications following the llms.txt specification at https://llmstxt.org/

    by github

  • Update an existing implementation plan file with new or update requirements to provide new features, refactoring existing code or upgrading packages, design, architecture or infrastructure.

    by github

  • Update Azure Verified Modules (AVM) to latest versions in Bicep files.

    by github

  • Write and review unit tests for Vue 3 + TypeScript + Vitest + Pinia codebases. Use when creating or updating tests for components, composables, and stores; mocking Pinia with createTestingPinia; applying Vue Test Utils patterns; and enforcing black-box assertions over implementation details.

    by github

  • Capture screenshots of web apps during development using Playwright and PIL. Supports full-page captures, interactive states, and an iterate-on-crop workflow that avoids slow re-screenshots.

  • Generate a TypeSpec API plugin with REST operations, authentication, and Adaptive Cards for Microsoft 365 Copilot

    by github

  • Generate a complete TypeSpec declarative agent with instructions, capabilities, and conversation starters for Microsoft 365 Copilot

    by github

  • Add GET, POST, PATCH, and DELETE operations to a TypeSpec API plugin with proper routing, parameters, and adaptive cards

  • Generate a complete MCP server project in TypeScript using the MCP TypeScript SDK v2 (@modelcontextprotocol/server) with tools, resources, and proper configuration

  • Tugboat

    skill

    Anxiety-aware, evidence-driven collaboration for stalled or high-stakes work when a user says uncertainty, repeated setbacks, or lack of visible progress is causing significant anxiety or distress. Use immediately when explicitly invoked; when this fit is only inferred from the user's own account, ask permission before applying it. Preserve the user's ideal and turn grounded perspective-taking into persistent, bounded problem solving. Do not use to diagnose, provide therapy, manufacture certainty, or lower goals for reassurance.

  • Process media files (video, audio, images, documents) using Transloadit. Use when asked to encode video to HLS/MP4, generate thumbnails, resize or watermark images, extract audio, concatenate clips, add subtitles, OCR documents, or run any media processing pipeline. Covers 86+ processing robots for file transformation at scale.

    by github

  • Creates valid Microsoft Threat Modeling Tool (.tm7) files compatible with the Microsoft Threat Modeling Tool v7.3+. Use this skill whenever asked to create, generate, or modify a .tm7 threat model file, or when performing STRIDE threat modeling that should output a .tm7 file that opens cleanly in the Microsoft Threat Modeling Tool.
