+# PowerToys – Copilot guide (concise)
+
+This is the top-level guide for AI changes. Keep edits small, follow existing patterns, and cite exact paths in PRs.
+
+Repo map (1‑line per area)
+- Core apps: `src/runner/**` (tray/loader), `src/settings-ui/**` (Settings app)
+- Shared libs: `src/common/**`
+- Modules: `src/modules/*` (one per utility; Command Palette in `src/modules/cmdpal/**`)
+- Build tools/docs: `tools/**`, `doc/devdocs/**`
+
+Build and test (defaults)
+- Prerequisites: Visual Studio 2022 17.4+, minimal Windows 10 1803+.
+- Build discipline:
+  - One terminal per operation (build → test). Don’t switch/open new ones mid-flow.
+  - After making changes, `cd` to the project folder that changed (`.csproj`/`.vcxproj`).
+  - Use script(s) to build, synchronously block and wait in foreground for it to finish: `tools/build/build.ps1|.cmd` (current folder), `build-essentials.*` (once per brand new build for missing nuget packages)
+  - Treat build **exit code 0** as success; any non-zero exit code is a failure, have Copilot read the errors log in the build folder (e.g., `build.*.*.errors.log`) and surface problems.
+  - Don’t start tests or launch Runner until the previous step succeeded.
+- Tests (fast + targeted):
+  - Find the test project by product code prefix (e.g., FancyZones, AdvancedPaste). Look for a sibling folder or 1–2 levels up named like `<Product>*UnitTests` or `<Product>*UITests`.
+  - Build the test project, wait for **exit**, then run only those tests via VS Test Explorer or `vstest.console.exe` with filters. Avoid `dotnet test` in this repo.
+  - Add/adjust tests when changing behavior; if skipped, state why (e.g., comment-only, string rename).
+
+Pull requests (expectations)
+- Atomic: one logical change; no drive‑by refactors.
+- Describe: problem / approach / risk / test evidence.
+- List: touched paths if not obvious.
+
+When to ask for clarification
+- Ambiguous spec after scanning relevant docs (see below).
+- Cross-module impact (shared enum/struct) not clear.
+- Security / elevation / installer changes.
+
+Logging (use existing stacks)
+- C++: `src/common/logger/**` (`Logger::info|warn|error|debug`). Keep hot paths quiet (hooks, tight loops).
+- C#: `ManagedCommon.Logger` (`LogInfo|LogWarning|LogError|LogDebug|LogTrace`). Some UIs use injected `ILogger` via `LoggerInstance.Logger`.
+
+Docs to consult
+- `tools/build/BUILD-GUIDELINES.md`
+- `doc/devdocs/core/architecture.md`, `doc/devdocs/core/runner.md`, `doc/devdocs/core/settings/readme.md`, `doc/devdocs/modules/readme.md`
+
+Done checklist (self review before finishing)
+- Build clean? Tests updated/passed? No unintended formatting? Any new dependency? Documented skips?

+## Developing PowerToys with Visual Studio Code
+
+This guide shows how to build, debug, and contribute to PowerToys using VS Code instead of (or alongside) full Visual Studio. It focuses on common inner‑loop tasks for C++, .NET, and mixed scenarios present in the solution.
+
+> PowerToys is a large mixed C++ / C# / WinAppSDK solution. VS Code works well for incremental development and quick module iterations, but occasionally you may still prefer full Visual Studio for designer tooling or specialized diagnostics.
+
+---
+VS Code extensions Needed:
+
+| Area | Extension | Notes |
+|------|-----------|-------|
+| C++ | ms-vscode.cpptools | IntelliSense, debugging (cppvsdbg) |
+| C# | ms-dotnettools.csdevkit (or C#) | Language service / test explorer |
+
+---
+
+## Building in VS Code
+### Configure developer powershell for vs2022 for more convenient dev in vscode.
+1. Configure profile in in settings, entry:  "terminal.integrated.profiles.windows"
+2. Add below config as entry:
+```json
+    "Developer PowerShell for VS 2022": {
+		// Configure based on your preference
+        "path": "C:\\Program Files\\WindowsApps\\Microsoft.PowerShell_7.5.2.0_arm64__8wekyb3d8bbwe\\pwsh.exe",
+        "args": [
+            "-NoExit",
+            "-Command",
+            "& {",
+            "$orig = Get-Location;",
+            // Configure based on your environment
+            "& 'C:\\Program Files\\Microsoft Visual Studio\\2022\\Enterprise\\Common7\\Tools\\Launch-VsDevShell.ps1';",
+            "Set-Location $orig",
+            "}"
+        ]
+    },
+```
+3. [Optional] Set Developer PowerShell for VS 2022 as your default profile, so that you can get a deep integration with vscode coding agent. 
+
+4. Now You can build with plain `msbuild` or configure tasks.json in below section
+Or reach out to "tools\build\BUILD-GUIDELINES.md"
+
+### Sample plain msbuild command
+```powershell
+# Restore:
+msbuild powertoys.sln -t:restore -p:configuration=debug -p:platform=x64 -m
+
+# Build powertoys sln
+msbuild powertoys.sln -p:configuration=debug -p:platform=x64 -m
+
+# dotnet project
+msbuild src\settings-ui\Settings.UI\PowerToys.Settings.csproj -p:Platform=x64 -p:Configuration=Debug -m
+
+# native project
+msbuild "src\modules\MouseUtils\FindMyMouse\FindMyMouse.vcxproj" -p:Configuration=Debug -p:Platform=x64 -m
+```
+
+---
+
+## Debugging
+
+### Existing launch configuration
+
+The repo provides `.vscode/launch.json` with:
+
+- `Run PowerToys.exe (no build)`: Launches the already-built executable at `x64/Debug/PowerToys.exe` using `cppvsdbg`.
+
+Build first, then press F5. To switch configuration (Release / ARM64) either edit the path or create additional launch entries.
+
+### Attaching to a running instance
+
+If PowerToys is already running, you can attach to that process:
+
+2. VS Code command palette: “C/C++: (Windows) Attach to Process”.
+3. Filter for `PowerToys.exe` / module-specific processes.
+
+### Debugging managed components
+
+Many modules have a managed component loaded into the PowerToys process. `cppvsdbg` can debug mixed mode, but if you need richer .NET inspection you can create a second configuration using `type: coreclr` and `processId` attachment after the native launch, or just attach separately:
+
+Similar for attach to managed code.
+> Note: In arm64 machine, can only debug arm64 code.
+
+```jsonc

+    "version": "0.2.0",

+## 6. Common tasks & tips
+
+| Task | Command / Action | Notes |
+|------|------------------|-------|
+| Clean | `git clean -xdf` (careful) or `msbuild /t:Clean PowerToys.sln` | Deep clean removes packages & build outputs |
+| Rebuild single project | `msbuild path\to\proj.vcxproj /t:Rebuild -p:Platform=x64 -p:Configuration=Debug` | Faster than whole solution |
+| Generate installer (rare in inner loop) | See `tools\build\build-installer.ps1` | Usually not needed for local debug |
+| Resource conversion errors | Re-run restore + build | Triggers custom PowerShell targets |

+# Common – shared libraries guidance (concise)
+
+Scope
+- Logging, IPC, settings, DPI, telemetry, utilities consumed by multiple modules.
+
+Guidelines
+- Avoid breaking public headers/APIs; if changed, search & update all callers.
+- Coordinate ABI-impacting struct/class layout changes; keep binary compatibility.
+- Watch perf in hot paths (hooks, timers, serialization); avoid avoidable allocations.
+- Ask before adding third‑party deps or changing serialization formats.
+
+Acceptance
+- No unintended ABI breaks, no noisy logs, new non-obvious symbols briefly commented.
