This PR adds a comprehensive
.github/copilot-instructions.mdfile that provides GitHub Copilot coding agents with detailed instructions for working effectively in the foresta-js codebase.The instructions cover all essential development workflows:
Bootstrap & Build Process:
npm ci~2-3 seconds,npm install~45 seconds)npm run build<1 second)Testing & Validation:
npm test<1 second, 17 tests)npm run test:coverage<2 seconds, 92%+ coverage)node examples/basic.jsDevelopment Workflow:
npm run test:watch)Key Information:
Validation:
Every command in the instructions has been thoroughly tested by following them exactly from a clean repository state. The instructions are designed to be copy-pastable and work reliably every time, eliminating guesswork for coding agents working with this JavaScript AST selector engine library.
Fixes #5.
💡 You can make Copilot smarter by setting up custom instructions, customizing its development environment and configuring Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers. Learn more Copilot coding agent tips in the docs.
