 # Non-English
-# Even repositories expecting pure English content can unintentionally have Non-English content... People will occasionally mistakenly enter [homoglyphs](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homoglyph) which are essentially typos, and using this pattern will mean check-spelling will not complain about them.
-#
-# If the content to be checked should be written in English and the only Non-English items will be people's names, then you can consider adding this.
-#
-# Alternatively, if you're using check-spelling v0.0.25+, and you would like to _check_ the Non-English content for spelling errors, you can. For information on how to do so, see:

----
-
-# FixIssue Agent
-
-You are an **IMPLEMENTATION AGENT** specialized in executing implementation plans to fix GitHub issues.
-
-## Identity & Expertise
-
-- Expert at translating plans into working code
-- Deep knowledge of PowerToys codebase patterns and conventions
-- Skilled at writing tests, handling edge cases, and validating builds
-- You follow plans precisely while handling ambiguity gracefully
-
-## Goal
-
-For the given **issue_number**, execute the implementation plan and produce:
-1. Working code changes applied directly to the repository
-2. `Generated Files/issueFix/{{issue_number}}/pr-description.md` — PR-ready description
-3. `Generated Files/issueFix/{{issue_number}}/manual-steps.md` — Only if human action needed
-
-## Core Directive
-
-**Follow the implementation plan in `Generated Files/issueReview/{{issue_number}}/implementation-plan.md` as the single source of truth.**
-
-If the plan doesn't exist, invoke PlanIssue agent first via `runSubagent`.
-
-## Working Principles
-
-- **Plan First**: Read and understand the entire implementation plan before coding
-- **Validate Always**: For each change: Edit → Build → Verify → Commit. Never proceed if build fails.
-- **Atomic Commits**: Each commit must be self-contained, buildable, and meaningful
-- **Ask, Don't Guess**: When uncertain, insert `// TODO(Human input needed): <question>` and document in manual-steps.md
-
-## Strategy
-
-**Core Loop** — For every unit of work:
-1. **Edit**: Make focused changes to implement one logical piece
-2. **Build**: Run `tools\build\build.cmd` and check for exit code 0
-3. **Verify**: Use `problems` tool for lint/compile errors; run relevant tests
-4. **Commit**: Only after build passes — use `.github/prompts/create-commit-title.prompt.md`
-
-Never skip steps. Never commit broken code. Never proceed if build fails.
-
-**Feature-by-Feature E2E**: For big scenarios with multiple features, complete each feature end-to-end before moving to the next:
-- Settings UI → Functionality → Logging → Tests (for Feature 1)
-- Then repeat for Feature 2
-- Benefits: Each feature is self-contained, testable, easier to review, can ship incrementally
-
-**Large Changes** (3+ files or cross-module):
-- Use `tools\build\New-WorktreeFromBranch.ps1` for isolated worktrees
-- Create separate branches per feature (e.g., `issue/{{issue_number}}-export`, `issue/{{issue_number}}-import`)
-- Merge feature branches back after each is validated
-
-**Recovery**: If implementation goes wrong:
-- Create a checkpoint branch before risky changes
-- On failure: branch from last known-good state, cherry-pick working changes, abandon broken branch
-- For complex changes, consider multiple smaller PRs
-
-## Guidelines
-
-**DO**:
-- Follow the plan exactly
-- Validate build before every commit — **NEVER commit broken code**
-- Use `.github/prompts/create-commit-title.prompt.md` for commit messages
-- Add comprehensive tests for changed behavior
-- Use worktrees for large changes (3+ files or cross-module)
-- Document deviations from plan
-
-**DON'T**:
-- Implement everything in a single massive commit
-- Continue after a failed build without fixing
-- Make drive-by refactors outside issue scope
-- Skip tests for behavioral changes
-- Add noisy logs in hot paths
-- Break IPC/JSON contracts without updating both sides
-- Introduce dependencies without documenting in NOTICE.md

-# PlanIssue Agent
-
-You are a **PLANNING AGENT** specialized in analyzing GitHub issues and producing comprehensive planning documentation.
-
-## Identity & Expertise
-
-- Expert at issue triage, priority scoring, and technical analysis
-- Deep knowledge of PowerToys architecture and codebase patterns
-- Skilled at breaking down problems into actionable implementation steps
-- You research thoroughly before planning, gathering 80% confidence before drafting
-
-## Goal
-
-For the given **issue_number**, produce two deliverables:
-1. `Generated Files/issueReview/{{issue_number}}/overview.md` — Issue analysis with scoring
-2. `Generated Files/issueReview/{{issue_number}}/implementation-plan.md` — Technical implementation plan
-Above is the core interaction with the end user. If you cannot produce the files above, you fail the task. Each time, you must check whether the files exist or have been modified by the end user, without assuming you know their contents.
-
-## Core Directive
-
-**Follow the template in `.github/prompts/review-issue.prompt.md` exactly.** Read it first, then apply every section as specified.
-
-<stopping_rules>
-You are a PLANNING agent, NOT an implementation agent.
-
-STOP if you catch yourself:
-- Writing actual code or making file edits
-- Switching to implementation mode
-- Using edit tools on source files
-
-Plans describe what the USER or FixIssue agent will execute later.
-</stopping_rules>
-
-## Working Principles
-
-- **Research First**: Gather comprehensive context before drafting any plan
-- **Score Objectively**: Rate importance, feasibility, and clarity to prioritize effectively
-- **Prefer Existing Patterns**: Choose solutions that match existing repo conventions
-- **Draft for Review**: Present plans to user for feedback before finalizing
-
-## Guidelines
-
-**DO**:
-- Fetch issue details including reactions, comments, and linked PRs
-- Search related code and find similar past fixes
-- Ask clarifying questions when requirements are ambiguous
-- Identify subject matter experts via git history
-- Offer handoffs when plan is ready
-
-**DON'T**:
-- Implement anything — you only plan
-- Edit source files
-- Make assumptions without researching
-- Skip the scoring/assessment phase

-# PowerToys – Copilot Instructions
-
-Concise guidance for AI contributions. For complete details, see [AGENTS.md](../AGENTS.md).
-
-## Quick Reference
-
-- **Build**: `tools\build\build-essentials.cmd` (first time), then `tools\build\build.cmd`
-- **Tests**: Find `<Product>*UnitTests` project, build it, run via VS Test Explorer
-- **Exit code 0 = success** – do not proceed if build fails
-
-## Key Rules
-
-- One terminal per operation (build → test)
-- Atomic PRs: one logical change, no drive-by refactors
-- Add tests when changing behavior
-- Keep hot paths quiet (no logging in hooks/tight loops)
-
-## Style Enforcement
-
-- C#: `src/.editorconfig`, StyleCop.Analyzers
-- C++: `src/.clang-format`
-- XAML: XamlStyler
-
-## When to Ask for Clarification
-
-- Ambiguous spec after scanning docs
-- Cross-module impact unclear
-- Security, elevation, or installer changes
-
-## Component-Specific Instructions

-# Agent Skills File Guidelines
-
-Instructions for creating effective and portable Agent Skills that enhance GitHub Copilot with specialized capabilities, workflows, and bundled resources.
-
-## What Are Agent Skills?
-
-Agent Skills are self-contained folders with instructions and bundled resources that teach AI agents specialized capabilities. Unlike custom instructions (which define coding standards), skills enable task-specific workflows that can include scripts, examples, templates, and reference data.
-
-Key characteristics:
-- **Portable**: Works across VS Code, Copilot CLI, and Copilot coding agent
-- **Progressive loading**: Only loaded when relevant to the user's request
-- **Resource-bundled**: Can include scripts, templates, examples alongside instructions
-- **On-demand**: Activated automatically based on prompt relevance
-
-## Directory Structure
-
-Skills are stored in specific locations:
-
-| Location | Scope | Recommendation |
-|----------|-------|----------------|
-| `.github/skills/<skill-name>/` | Project/repository | Recommended for project skills |
-| `.claude/skills/<skill-name>/` | Project/repository | Legacy, for backward compatibility |
-| `~/.github/skills/<skill-name>/` | Personal (user-wide) | Recommended for personal skills |
-| `~/.claude/skills/<skill-name>/` | Personal (user-wide) | Legacy, for backward compatibility |
-
-Each skill **must** have its own subdirectory containing at minimum a `SKILL.md` file.
-
-## Required SKILL.md Format
-
-### Frontmatter (Required)
-
-```yaml
----
-name: webapp-testing
-description: Toolkit for testing local web applications using Playwright. Use when asked to verify frontend functionality, debug UI behavior, capture browser screenshots, check for visual regressions, or view browser console logs. Supports Chrome, Firefox, and WebKit browsers.
-license: Complete terms in LICENSE.txt
----
-```
-
-| Field | Required | Constraints |
-|-------|----------|-------------|
-| `name` | Yes | Lowercase, hyphens for spaces, max 64 characters (e.g., `webapp-testing`) |
-| `description` | Yes | Clear description of capabilities AND use cases, max 1024 characters |
-| `license` | No | Reference to LICENSE.txt (e.g., `Complete terms in LICENSE.txt`) or SPDX identifier |
-
-### Description Best Practices
-
-**CRITICAL**: The `description` field is the PRIMARY mechanism for automatic skill discovery. Copilot reads ONLY the `name` and `description` to decide whether to load a skill. If your description is vague, the skill will never be activated.
-
-**What to include in description:**
-1. **WHAT** the skill does (capabilities)
-2. **WHEN** to use it (specific triggers, scenarios, file types, or user requests)
-3. **Keywords** that users might mention in their prompts
-
-**Good description:**
-```yaml
-description: Toolkit for testing local web applications using Playwright. Use when asked to verify frontend functionality, debug UI behavior, capture browser screenshots, check for visual regressions, or view browser console logs. Supports Chrome, Firefox, and WebKit browsers.
-```
-
-**Poor description:**
-```yaml
-description: Web testing helpers
-```
-
-The poor description fails because:
-- No specific triggers (when should Copilot load this?)
-- No keywords (what user prompts would match?)
-- No capabilities (what can it actually do?)
-
-### Body Content
-
-The body contains detailed instructions that Copilot loads AFTER the skill is activated. Recommended sections:
-
-| Section | Purpose |
-|---------|---------|
-| `# Title` | Brief overview of what this skill enables |
-| `## When to Use This Skill` | List of scenarios (reinforces description triggers) |
-| `## Prerequisites` | Required tools, dependencies, environment setup |
-| `## Step-by-Step Workflows` | Numbered steps for common tasks |
-| `## Troubleshooting` | Common issues and solutions table |
-| `## References` | Links to bundled docs or external resources |
-
-## Bundling Resources
-
-Skills can include additional files that Copilot accesses on-demand:
-
-### Supported Resource Types
-
-| Folder | Purpose | Loaded into Context? | Example Files |
-|--------|---------|---------------------|---------------|
-| `scripts/` | Executable automation that performs specific operations | When executed | `helper.py`, `validate.sh`, `build.ts` |
-| `references/` | Documentation the AI agent reads to inform decisions | Yes, when referenced | `api_reference.md`, `schema.md`, `workflow_guide.md` |
-| `assets/` | **Static files used AS-IS** in output (not modified by the AI agent) | No | `logo.png`, `brand-template.pptx`, `custom-font.ttf` |
-| `templates/` | **Starter code/scaffolds that the AI agent MODIFIES** and builds upon | Yes, when referenced | `viewer.html` (insert algorithm), `hello-world/` (extend) |
-
-### Directory Structure Example
-
-```
-.github/skills/my-skill/

-    ├── scaffold.py       # Code scaffold the AI agent customizes

-```
-
-> **LICENSE.txt**: When creating a skill, download the Apache 2.0 license text from https://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0.txt and save as `LICENSE.txt`. Update the copyright year and owner in the appendix section.
-
-### Assets vs Templates: Key Distinction
-
-**Assets** are static resources **consumed unchanged** in the output:
-- A `logo.png` that gets embedded into a generated document
-- A `report-template.html` copied as output format
-- A `custom-font.ttf` applied to text rendering
-
-**Templates** are starter code/scaffolds that **the AI agent actively modifies**:
-- A `scaffold.py` where the AI agent inserts logic
-- A `config.template` where the AI agent fills in values based on user requirements
-- A `hello-world/` project directory that the AI agent extends with new features
-
-**Rule of thumb**: If the AI agent reads and builds upon the file content → `templates/`. If the file is used as-is in output → `assets/`.
-
-### Referencing Resources in SKILL.md
-
-Use relative paths to reference files within the skill directory:
-
-```markdown
-## Available Scripts
-
-Run the [helper script](./scripts/helper.py) to automate common tasks.
-
-See [API reference](./references/api_reference.md) for detailed documentation.
-
-Use the [scaffold](./templates/scaffold.py) as a starting point.
-```
-
-## Progressive Loading Architecture
-
-Skills use three-level loading for efficiency:
-
-| Level | What Loads | When |
-|-------|------------|------|
-| 1. Discovery | `name` and `description` only | Always (lightweight metadata) |
-| 2. Instructions | Full `SKILL.md` body | When request matches description |
-| 3. Resources | Scripts, examples, docs | Only when Copilot references them |
-
-This means:
-- Install many skills without consuming context
-- Only relevant content loads per task
-- Resources don't load until explicitly needed
-
-## Content Guidelines
-
-### Writing Style
-
-- Use imperative mood: "Run", "Create", "Configure" (not "You should run")
-- Be specific and actionable
-- Include exact commands with parameters
-- Show expected outputs where helpful
-- Keep sections focused and scannable
-
-### Script Requirements
-
-When including scripts, prefer cross-platform languages:
-
-| Language | Use Case |
-|----------|----------|
-| Python | Complex automation, data processing |
-| pwsh | PowerShell Core scripting |
-| Node.js | JavaScript-based tooling |
-| Bash/Shell | Simple automation tasks |
-
-Best practices:
-- Include help/usage documentation (`--help` flag)
-- Handle errors gracefully with clear messages
-- Avoid storing credentials or secrets
-- Use relative paths where possible
-
-### When to Bundle Scripts
-
-Include scripts in your skill when:
-- The same code would be rewritten repeatedly by the agent
-- Deterministic reliability is critical (e.g., file manipulation, API calls)
-- Complex logic benefits from being pre-tested rather than generated each time
-- The operation has a self-contained purpose that can evolve independently
-- Testability matters — scripts can be unit tested and validated
-- Predictable behavior is preferred over dynamic generation
-
-Scripts enable evolution: even simple operations benefit from being implemented as scripts when they may grow in complexity, need consistent behavior across invocations, or require future extensibility.
-
-### Security Considerations
-
-- Scripts rely on existing credential helpers (no credential storage)
-- Include `--force` flags only for destructive operations
-- Warn users before irreversible actions
-- Document any network operations or external calls
-
-## Common Patterns
-
-### Parameter Table Pattern
-
-Document parameters clearly:
-
-```markdown
-| Parameter | Required | Default | Description |
-|-----------|----------|---------|-------------|
-| `--input` | Yes | - | Input file or URL to process |
-| `--action` | Yes | - | Action to perform |
-| `--verbose` | No | `false` | Enable verbose output |
-```
-
-## Validation Checklist
-
-Before publishing a skill:
-
-- [ ] `SKILL.md` has valid frontmatter with `name` and `description`
-- [ ] `name` is lowercase with hyphens, ≤64 characters
-- [ ] `description` clearly states **WHAT** it does, **WHEN** to use it, and relevant **KEYWORDS**
-- [ ] Body includes when to use, prerequisites, and step-by-step workflows
-- [ ] SKILL.md body kept under 500 lines (split large content into `references/` folder)
-- [ ] Large workflows (>5 steps) split into `references/` folder with clear links from SKILL.md
-- [ ] Scripts include help documentation and error handling
-- [ ] Relative paths used for all resource references
-- [ ] No hardcoded credentials or secrets
-
-## Workflow Execution Pattern
-
-When executing multi-step workflows, create a TODO list where each step references the relevant documentation:
-
-```markdown
-## TODO
-- [ ] Step 1: Configure environment - see [workflow-setup.md](./references/workflow-setup.md#environment)
-- [ ] Step 2: Build project - see [workflow-setup.md](./references/workflow-setup.md#build)
-- [ ] Step 3: Deploy to staging - see [workflow-deployment.md](./references/workflow-deployment.md#staging)
-- [ ] Step 4: Run validation - see [workflow-deployment.md](./references/workflow-deployment.md#validation)
-- [ ] Step 5: Deploy to production - see [workflow-deployment.md](./references/workflow-deployment.md#production)
-```
-
-This ensures traceability and allows resuming workflows if interrupted.

-# Custom Agent File Guidelines
-
-Instructions for creating effective and maintainable custom agent files that provide specialized expertise for specific development tasks in GitHub Copilot.
-
-## Project Context
-
-- Target audience: Developers creating custom agents for GitHub Copilot
-- File format: Markdown with YAML frontmatter
-- File naming convention: lowercase with hyphens (e.g., `test-specialist.agent.md`)
-- Location: `.github/agents/` directory (repository-level) or `agents/` directory (organization/enterprise-level)
-- Purpose: Define specialized agents with tailored expertise, tools, and instructions for specific tasks
-- Official documentation: https://docs.github.com/en/copilot/how-tos/use-copilot-agents/coding-agent/create-custom-agents
-
-## Required Frontmatter
-
-Every agent file must include YAML frontmatter with the following fields:
-
-```yaml
----
-description: 'Brief description of the agent purpose and capabilities'
-name: 'Agent Display Name'
-tools: ['read', 'edit', 'search']
-model: 'Claude Sonnet 4.5'
-target: 'vscode'
-infer: true
----
-```
-
-### Core Frontmatter Properties
-
-#### **description** (REQUIRED)
-- Single-quoted string, clearly stating the agent's purpose and domain expertise
-- Should be concise (50-150 characters) and actionable
-- Example: `'Focuses on test coverage, quality, and testing best practices'`
-
-#### **name** (OPTIONAL)
-- Display name for the agent in the UI
-- If omitted, defaults to filename (without `.md` or `.agent.md`)
-- Use title case and be descriptive
-- Example: `'Testing Specialist'`
-
-#### **tools** (OPTIONAL)
-- List of tool names or aliases the agent can use
-- Supports comma-separated string or YAML array format
-- If omitted, agent has access to all available tools
-- See "Tool Configuration" section below for details
-
-#### **model** (STRONGLY RECOMMENDED)
-- Specifies which AI model the agent should use
-- Supported in VS Code, JetBrains IDEs, Eclipse, and Xcode
-- Example: `'Claude Sonnet 4.5'`, `'gpt-4'`, `'gpt-4o'`
-- Choose based on agent complexity and required capabilities
-
-#### **target** (OPTIONAL)
-- Specifies target environment: `'vscode'` or `'github-copilot'`
-- If omitted, agent is available in both environments
-- Use when agent has environment-specific features
-
-#### **infer** (OPTIONAL)
-- Boolean controlling whether Copilot can automatically use this agent based on context
-- Default: `true` if omitted
-- Set to `false` to require manual agent selection
-
-#### **metadata** (OPTIONAL, GitHub.com only)
-- Object with name-value pairs for agent annotation
-- Example: `metadata: { category: 'testing', version: '1.0' }`
-- Not supported in VS Code
-
-#### **mcp-servers** (OPTIONAL, Organization/Enterprise only)
-- Configure MCP servers available only to this agent
-- Only supported for organization/enterprise level agents
-- See "MCP Server Configuration" section below
-
-## Tool Configuration
-
-### Tool Specification Strategies
-
-**Enable all tools** (default):
-```yaml
-# Omit tools property entirely, or use:
-tools: ['*']
-```
-
-**Enable specific tools**:
-```yaml
-tools: ['read', 'edit', 'search', 'execute']
-```
-
-**Enable MCP server tools**:
-```yaml
-tools: ['read', 'edit', 'github/*', 'playwright/navigate']
-```
-
-**Disable all tools**:
-```yaml
-tools: []
-```
-
-### Standard Tool Aliases
-
-All aliases are case-insensitive:
-
-| Alias | Alternative Names | Category | Description |
-|-------|------------------|----------|-------------|
-| `execute` | shell, Bash, powershell | Shell execution | Execute commands in appropriate shell |
-| `read` | Read, NotebookRead, view | File reading | Read file contents |
-| `edit` | Edit, MultiEdit, Write, NotebookEdit | File editing | Edit and modify files |
-| `search` | Grep, Glob, search | Code search | Search for files or text in files |
-| `agent` | custom-agent, Task | Agent invocation | Invoke other custom agents |
-| `web` | WebSearch, WebFetch | Web access | Fetch web content and search |
-| `todo` | TodoWrite | Task management | Create and manage task lists (VS Code only) |
-
-### Built-in MCP Server Tools
-
-**GitHub MCP Server**:
-```yaml
-tools: ['github/*']  # All GitHub tools
-tools: ['github/get_file_contents', 'github/search_repositories']  # Specific tools
-```
-- All read-only tools available by default
-- Token scoped to source repository
-
-**Playwright MCP Server**:
-```yaml
-tools: ['playwright/*']  # All Playwright tools
-tools: ['playwright/navigate', 'playwright/screenshot']  # Specific tools
-```
-- Configured to access localhost only
-- Useful for browser automation and testing
-
-### Tool Selection Best Practices
-
-- **Principle of Least Privilege**: Only enable tools necessary for the agent's purpose
-- **Security**: Limit `execute` access unless explicitly required
-- **Focus**: Fewer tools = clearer agent purpose and better performance
-- **Documentation**: Comment why specific tools are required for complex configurations
-
-## Sub-Agent Invocation (Agent Orchestration)
-
-Agents can invoke other agents using `runSubagent` to orchestrate multi-step workflows.
-
-### How It Works
-
-Include `agent` in tools list to enable sub-agent invocation:
-
-```yaml
-tools: ['read', 'edit', 'search', 'agent']
-```
-
-Then invoke other agents with `runSubagent`:
-
-```javascript
-const result = await runSubagent({
-  description: 'What this step does',
-  prompt: `You are the [Specialist] specialist.
-
-Context:
-- Parameter: ${parameterValue}
-- Input: ${inputPath}
-- Output: ${outputPath}
-
-Task:
-1. Do the specific work
-2. Write results to output location
-3. Return summary of completion`
-});
-```
-
-### Basic Pattern
-
-Structure each sub-agent call with:
-
-1. **description**: Clear one-line purpose of the sub-agent invocation
-2. **prompt**: Detailed instructions with substituted variables
-
-The prompt should include:
-- Who the sub-agent is (specialist role)
-- What context it needs (parameters, paths)
-- What to do (concrete tasks)
-- Where to write output
-- What to return (summary)
-
-### Example: Multi-Step Processing
-
-```javascript
-// Step 1: Process data
-const processing = await runSubagent({
-  description: 'Transform raw input data',
-  prompt: `You are the Data Processor specialist.
-
-Project: ${projectName}
-Input: ${basePath}/raw/
-Output: ${basePath}/processed/
-
-Task:
-1. Read all files from input directory
-2. Apply transformations
-3. Write processed files to output
-4. Create summary: ${basePath}/processed/summary.md
-
-Return: Number of files processed and any issues found`
-});
-
-// Step 2: Analyze (depends on Step 1)
-const analysis = await runSubagent({
-  description: 'Analyze processed data',
-  prompt: `You are the Data Analyst specialist.
-
-Project: ${projectName}
-Input: ${basePath}/processed/
-Output: ${basePath}/analysis/
-
-Task:
-1. Read processed files from input
-2. Generate analysis report
-3. Write to: ${basePath}/analysis/report.md
-
-Return: Key findings and identified patterns`
-});
-```
-
-### Key Points
-
-- **Pass variables in prompts**: Use `${variableName}` for all dynamic values
-- **Keep prompts focused**: Clear, specific tasks for each sub-agent
-- **Return summaries**: Each sub-agent should report what it accomplished
-- **Sequential execution**: Use `await` to maintain order when steps depend on each other
-- **Error handling**: Check results before proceeding to dependent steps
-
-### ⚠️ Tool Availability Requirement
-
-**Critical**: If a sub-agent requires specific tools (e.g., `edit`, `execute`, `search`), the orchestrator must include those tools in its own `tools` list. Sub-agents cannot access tools that aren't available to their parent orchestrator.
-
-**Example**:
-```yaml
-# If your sub-agents need to edit files, execute commands, or search code
-tools: ['read', 'edit', 'search', 'execute', 'agent']
-```
-
-The orchestrator's tool permissions act as a ceiling for all invoked sub-agents. Plan your tool list carefully to ensure all sub-agents have the tools they need.
-
-### ⚠️ Important Limitation
-
-**Sub-agent orchestration is NOT suitable for large-scale data processing.** Avoid using `runSubagent` when:
-- Processing hundreds or thousands of files
-- Handling large datasets
-- Performing bulk transformations on big codebases
-- Orchestrating more than 5-10 sequential steps
-
-Each sub-agent call adds latency and context overhead. For high-volume processing, implement logic directly in a single agent instead. Use orchestration only for coordinating specialized tasks on focused, manageable datasets.
-
-## Agent Prompt Structure
-
-The markdown content below the frontmatter defines the agent's behavior, expertise, and instructions. Well-structured prompts typically include:
-
-1. **Agent Identity and Role**: Who the agent is and its primary role
-2. **Core Responsibilities**: What specific tasks the agent performs
-3. **Approach and Methodology**: How the agent works to accomplish tasks
-4. **Guidelines and Constraints**: What to do/avoid and quality standards
-5. **Output Expectations**: Expected output format and quality
-
-### Prompt Writing Best Practices
-
-- **Be Specific and Direct**: Use imperative mood ("Analyze", "Generate"); avoid vague terms
-- **Define Boundaries**: Clearly state scope limits and constraints
-- **Include Context**: Explain domain expertise and reference relevant frameworks
-- **Focus on Behavior**: Describe how the agent should think and work
-- **Use Structured Format**: Headers, bullets, and lists make prompts scannable

-## Variable Definition and Extraction
-
-Agents can define dynamic parameters to extract values from user input and use them throughout the agent's behavior and sub-agent communications. This enables flexible, context-aware agents that adapt to user-provided data.
-
-### When to Use Variables
-
-**Use variables when**:
-- Agent behavior depends on user input
-- Need to pass dynamic values to sub-agents
-- Want to make agents reusable across different contexts
-- Require parameterized workflows
-- Need to track or reference user-provided context
-
-**Examples**:
-- Extract project name from user prompt
-- Capture certification name for pipeline processing
-- Identify file paths or directories
-- Extract configuration options
-- Parse feature names or module identifiers
-
-### Variable Declaration Pattern
-
-Define variables section early in the agent prompt to document expected parameters:
-
-```markdown
-# Agent Name
-
-## Dynamic Parameters
-
-- **Parameter Name**: Description and usage
-- **Another Parameter**: How it's extracted and used
-
-## Your Mission
-
-Process [PARAMETER_NAME] to accomplish [task].
-```
-
-### Variable Extraction Methods
-
-#### 1. **Explicit User Input**
-Ask the user to provide the variable if not detected in the prompt:
-
-```markdown
-## Your Mission
-
-Process the project by analyzing your codebase.
-
-### Step 1: Identify Project
-If no project name is provided, **ASK THE USER** for:
-- Project name or identifier
-- Base path or directory location
-- Configuration type (if applicable)
-
-Use this information to contextualize all subsequent tasks.
-```
-
-#### 2. **Implicit Extraction from Prompt**
-Automatically extract variables from the user's natural language input:
-
-```javascript
-// Example: Extract certification name from user input
-const userInput = "Process My Certification";
-
-// Extract key information
-const certificationName = extractCertificationName(userInput);
-// Result: "My Certification"
-
-const basePath = `certifications/${certificationName}`;
-// Result: "certifications/My Certification"
-```
-
-#### 3. **Contextual Variable Resolution**
-Use file context or workspace information to derive variables:
-
-```markdown
-## Variable Resolution Strategy
-
-1. **From User Prompt**: First, look for explicit mentions in user input
-2. **From File Context**: Check current file name or path
-3. **From Workspace**: Use workspace folder or active project
-4. **From Settings**: Reference configuration files
-5. **Ask User**: If all else fails, request missing information
-```
-
-### Using Variables in Agent Prompts
-
-#### Variable Substitution in Instructions
-
-Use template variables in agent prompts to make them dynamic:
-
-```markdown
-# Agent Name
-
-## Dynamic Parameters
-- **Project Name**: ${projectName}
-- **Base Path**: ${basePath}
-- **Output Directory**: ${outputDir}
-
-## Your Mission
-
-Process the **${projectName}** project located at `${basePath}`.
-
-## Process Steps
-
-1. Read input from: `${basePath}/input/`
-2. Process files according to project configuration
-3. Write results to: `${outputDir}/`
-4. Generate summary report
-
-## Quality Standards
-
-- Maintain project-specific coding standards for **${projectName}**
-- Follow directory structure: `${basePath}/[structure]`
-```
-
-#### Passing Variables to Sub-Agents
-
-When invoking a sub-agent, pass all context through template variables in the prompt:
-
-```javascript
-// Extract and prepare variables
-const basePath = `projects/${projectName}`;
-const inputPath = `${basePath}/src/`;
-const outputPath = `${basePath}/docs/`;
-
-// Pass to sub-agent with all variables substituted
-const result = await runSubagent({
-  description: 'Generate project documentation',
-  prompt: `You are the Documentation specialist.
-
-Project: ${projectName}
-Input: ${inputPath}
-Output: ${outputPath}
-
-Task:
-1. Read source files from ${inputPath}
-2. Generate comprehensive documentation
-3. Write to ${outputPath}/index.md
-4. Include code examples and usage guides
-
-Return: Summary of documentation generated (file count, word count)`
-});
-```
-
-The sub-agent receives all necessary context embedded in the prompt. Variables are resolved before sending the prompt, so the sub-agent works with concrete paths and values, not variable placeholders.
-
-### Real-World Example: Code Review Orchestrator
-
-Example of a simple orchestrator that validates code through multiple specialized agents:
-
-```javascript
-async function reviewCodePipeline(repositoryName, prNumber) {
-  const basePath = `projects/${repositoryName}/pr-${prNumber}`;
-
-  // Step 1: Security Review
-  const security = await runSubagent({
-    description: 'Scan for security vulnerabilities',
-    prompt: `You are the Security Reviewer specialist.
-
-Repository: ${repositoryName}
-PR: ${prNumber}
-Code: ${basePath}/changes/
-
-Task:
-1. Scan code for OWASP Top 10 vulnerabilities
-2. Check for injection attacks, auth flaws
-3. Write findings to ${basePath}/security-review.md
-
-Return: List of critical, high, and medium issues found`
-  });
-
-  // Step 2: Test Coverage Check
-  const coverage = await runSubagent({
-    description: 'Verify test coverage for changes',
-    prompt: `You are the Test Coverage specialist.
-
-Repository: ${repositoryName}
-PR: ${prNumber}
-Changes: ${basePath}/changes/
-
-Task:
-1. Analyze code coverage for modified files
-2. Identify untested critical paths
-3. Write report to ${basePath}/coverage-report.md
-
-Return: Current coverage percentage and gaps`
-  });
-
-  // Step 3: Aggregate Results
-  const finalReport = await runSubagent({
-    description: 'Compile all review findings',
-    prompt: `You are the Review Aggregator specialist.
-
-Repository: ${repositoryName}
-Reports: ${basePath}/*.md
-
-Task:
-1. Read all review reports from ${basePath}/
-2. Synthesize findings into single report
-3. Determine overall verdict (APPROVE/NEEDS_FIXES/BLOCK)
-4. Write to ${basePath}/final-review.md
-
-Return: Final verdict and executive summary`
-  });
-
-  return finalReport;
-}
-```
-
-This pattern applies to any orchestration scenario: extract variables, call sub-agents with clear context, await results.
-
-
-### Variable Best Practices
-
-#### 1. **Clear Documentation**
-Always document what variables are expected:
-
-```markdown
-## Required Variables
-- **projectName**: The name of the project (string, required)
-- **basePath**: Root directory for project files (path, required)
-
-## Optional Variables
-- **mode**: Processing mode - quick/standard/detailed (enum, default: standard)
-- **outputFormat**: Output format - markdown/json/html (enum, default: markdown)
-
-## Derived Variables
-- **outputDir**: Automatically set to ${basePath}/output
-- **logFile**: Automatically set to ${basePath}/.log.md
-```
-
-#### 2. **Consistent Naming**
-Use consistent variable naming conventions:
-
-```javascript
-// Good: Clear, descriptive naming
-const variables = {
-  projectName,          // What project to work on
-  basePath,            // Where project files are located
-  outputDirectory,     // Where to save results
-  processingMode,      // How to process (detail level)
-  configurationPath    // Where config files are
-};
-
-// Avoid: Ambiguous or inconsistent
-const bad_variables = {
-  name,     // Too generic
-  path,     // Unclear which path
-  mode,     // Too short
-  config    // Too vague
-};
-```
-
-#### 3. **Validation and Constraints**
-Document valid values and constraints:
-
-```markdown
-## Variable Constraints
-
-**projectName**:
-- Type: string (alphanumeric, hyphens, underscores allowed)
-- Length: 1-100 characters
-- Required: yes
-- Pattern: `/^[a-zA-Z0-9_-]+$/`
-
-**processingMode**:
-- Type: enum
-- Valid values: "quick" (< 5min), "standard" (5-15min), "detailed" (15+ min)
-- Default: "standard"
-- Required: no
-```
-
-## MCP Server Configuration (Organization/Enterprise Only)
-
-MCP servers extend agent capabilities with additional tools. Only supported for organization and enterprise-level agents.
-
-### Configuration Format
-
-```yaml
----
-name: my-custom-agent
-description: 'Agent with MCP integration'
-tools: ['read', 'edit', 'custom-mcp/tool-1']
-mcp-servers:
-  custom-mcp:
-    type: 'local'
-    command: 'some-command'
-    args: ['--arg1', '--arg2']
-    tools: ["*"]
-    env:
-      ENV_VAR_NAME: ${{ secrets.API_KEY }}
----
-```
-
-### MCP Server Properties
-
-- **type**: Server type (`'local'` or `'stdio'`)
-- **command**: Command to start the MCP server
-- **args**: Array of command arguments
-- **tools**: Tools to enable from this server (`["*"]` for all)
-- **env**: Environment variables (supports secrets)
-
-### Environment Variables and Secrets
-
-Secrets must be configured in repository settings under "copilot" environment.
-
-**Supported syntax**:
-```yaml
-env:
-  # Environment variable only
-  VAR_NAME: COPILOT_MCP_ENV_VAR_VALUE
-
-  # Variable with header
-  VAR_NAME: $COPILOT_MCP_ENV_VAR_VALUE
-  VAR_NAME: ${COPILOT_MCP_ENV_VAR_VALUE}
-
-  # GitHub Actions-style (YAML only)
-  VAR_NAME: ${{ secrets.COPILOT_MCP_ENV_VAR_VALUE }}
-  VAR_NAME: ${{ var.COPILOT_MCP_ENV_VAR_VALUE }}
-```
-
-## File Organization and Naming
-
-### Repository-Level Agents
-- Location: `.github/agents/`
-- Scope: Available only in the specific repository
-- Access: Uses repository-configured MCP servers
-
-### Organization/Enterprise-Level Agents
-- Location: `.github-private/agents/` (then move to `agents/` root)
-- Scope: Available across all repositories in org/enterprise
-- Access: Can configure dedicated MCP servers
-
-### Naming Conventions
-- Use lowercase with hyphens: `test-specialist.agent.md`
-- Name should reflect agent purpose
-- Filename becomes default agent name (if `name` not specified)
-- Allowed characters: `.`, `-`, `_`, `a-z`, `A-Z`, `0-9`
-
-## Agent Processing and Behavior
-
-### Versioning
-- Based on Git commit SHAs for the agent file
-- Create branches/tags for different agent versions
-- Instantiated using latest version for repository/branch
-- PR interactions use same agent version for consistency
-
-### Name Conflicts
-Priority (highest to lowest):
-1. Repository-level agent
-2. Organization-level agent
-3. Enterprise-level agent
-
-Lower-level configurations override higher-level ones with the same name.
-
-### Tool Processing
-- `tools` list filters available tools (built-in and MCP)
-- No tools specified = all tools enabled
-- Empty list (`[]`) = all tools disabled
-- Specific list = only those tools enabled
-- Unrecognized tool names are ignored (allows environment-specific tools)
-
-### MCP Server Processing Order
-1. Out-of-the-box MCP servers (e.g., GitHub MCP)
-2. Custom agent MCP configuration (org/enterprise only)
-3. Repository-level MCP configurations
-
-Each level can override settings from previous levels.
-

-# Azure DevOps Pipeline YAML Best Practices
-
-Guidelines for creating maintainable, secure, and efficient Azure DevOps pipelines in PowerToys.
-
-## General Guidelines
-
-- Use YAML syntax consistently with proper indentation (2 spaces)
-- Always include meaningful names and display names for pipelines, stages, jobs, and steps
-- Implement proper error handling and conditional execution
-- Use variables and parameters to make pipelines reusable and maintainable
-- Follow the principle of least privilege for service connections and permissions
-- Include comprehensive logging and diagnostics for troubleshooting
-
-## Pipeline Structure
-
-- Organize complex pipelines using stages for better visualization and control
-- Use jobs to group related steps and enable parallel execution when possible
-- Implement proper dependencies between stages and jobs
-- Use templates for reusable pipeline components
-- Keep pipeline files focused and modular - split large pipelines into multiple files
-
-## Build Best Practices
-
-- Use specific agent pool versions and VM images for consistency
-- Cache dependencies (npm, NuGet, Maven, etc.) to improve build performance
-- Implement proper artifact management with meaningful names and retention policies
-- Use build variables for version numbers and build metadata
-- Include code quality gates (lint checks, testing, security scans)
-- Ensure builds are reproducible and environment-independent
-
-## Testing Integration
-
-- Run unit tests as part of the build process
-- Publish test results in standard formats (JUnit, VSTest, etc.)
-- Include code coverage reporting and quality gates
-- Implement integration and end-to-end tests in appropriate stages
-- Use test impact analysis when available to optimize test execution
-- Fail fast on test failures to provide quick feedback
-
-## Security Considerations
-
-- Use Azure Key Vault for sensitive configuration and secrets
-- Implement proper secret management with variable groups
-- Use service connections with minimal required permissions
-- Enable security scans (dependency vulnerabilities, static analysis)
-- Implement approval gates for production deployments
-- Use managed identities when possible instead of service principals
-
-## Deployment Strategies
-
-- Implement proper environment promotion (dev → staging → production)
-- Use deployment jobs with proper environment targeting
-- Implement blue-green or canary deployment strategies when appropriate
-- Include rollback mechanisms and health checks
-- Use infrastructure as code (ARM, Bicep, Terraform) for consistent deployments
-- Implement proper configuration management per environment
-
-## Variable and Parameter Management
-
-- Use variable groups for shared configuration across pipelines
-- Implement runtime parameters for flexible pipeline execution
-- Use conditional variables based on branches or environments
-- Secure sensitive variables and mark them as secrets
-- Document variable purposes and expected values
-- Use variable templates for complex variable logic
-
-## Performance Optimization
-
-- Use parallel jobs and matrix strategies when appropriate
-- Implement proper caching strategies for dependencies and build outputs
-- Use shallow clone for Git operations when full history isn't needed
-- Optimize Docker image builds with multi-stage builds and layer caching
-- Monitor pipeline performance and optimize bottlenecks
-- Use pipeline resource triggers efficiently
-
-## Monitoring and Observability
-
-- Include comprehensive logging throughout the pipeline
-- Use Azure Monitor and Application Insights for deployment tracking
-- Implement proper notification strategies for failures and successes
-- Include deployment health checks and automated rollback triggers
-- Use pipeline analytics to identify improvement opportunities
-- Document pipeline behavior and troubleshooting steps
-
-## Template and Reusability
-
-- Create pipeline templates for common patterns
-- Use extends templates for complete pipeline inheritance
-- Implement step templates for reusable task sequences
-- Use variable templates for complex variable logic
-- Version templates appropriately for stability
-- Document template parameters and usage examples
-
-## Branch and Trigger Strategy
-
-- Implement appropriate triggers for different branch types
-- Use path filters to trigger builds only when relevant files change
-- Configure proper CI/CD triggers for main/master branches
-- Use pull request triggers for code validation
-- Implement scheduled triggers for maintenance tasks
-- Consider resource triggers for multi-repository scenarios
-

-                    package: '$(Pipeline.Workspace)/drop/**/*.zip'
-```
-
-## Common Anti-Patterns to Avoid
-
-- Hardcoding sensitive values directly in YAML files
-- Using overly broad triggers that cause unnecessary builds
-- Mixing build and deployment logic in a single stage
-- Not implementing proper error handling and cleanup
-- Using deprecated task versions without upgrade plans
-- Creating monolithic pipelines that are difficult to maintain
-- Not using proper naming conventions for clarity
-- Ignoring pipeline security best practices

-
-# Common Libraries – Shared Code Guidance
-
-Guidelines for modifying shared code in `src/common/`. Changes here can have wide-reaching impact across the entire PowerToys codebase.
-
-## Scope
-
-- Logging infrastructure (`src/common/logger/`)
-- IPC primitives and named pipe utilities
-- Settings serialization and management
-- DPI awareness and scaling utilities
-- Telemetry helpers
-- General utilities (JSON parsing, string helpers, etc.)
-
-## Guidelines
-
-### API Stability
-
-- Avoid breaking public headers/APIs; if changed, search & update all callers
-- Coordinate ABI-impacting struct/class layout changes; keep binary compatibility
-- When modifying public interfaces, grep the entire codebase for usages
-
-### Performance
-
-- Watch perf in hot paths (hooks, timers, serialization)
-- Avoid avoidable allocations in frequently called code
-- Profile changes that touch performance-sensitive areas
-
-### Dependencies
-
-- Ask before adding third-party deps or changing serialization formats
-- New dependencies must be MIT-licensed or approved by PM team
-- Add any new external packages to `NOTICE.md`
-
-### Logging
-
-- C++ logging uses spdlog (`Logger::info`, `Logger::warn`, `Logger::error`, `Logger::debug`)
-- Initialize with `init_logger()` early in startup
-- Keep hot paths quiet – no logging in tight loops or hooks
-
-## Acceptance Criteria
-
-- No unintended ABI breaks
-- No noisy logs in hot paths
-- New non-obvious symbols briefly commented
-- All callers updated when interfaces change
-
-## Code Style
-
-- **C++**: Follow `.clang-format` in `src/`; use Modern C++ patterns per C++ Core Guidelines
-- **C#**: Follow `src/.editorconfig`; enforce StyleCop.Analyzers
-
-## Validation
-
-- Build: `tools\build\build.cmd` from `src/common/` folder
-- Verify no ABI breaks: grep for changed function/struct names across codebase
-- Check logs: ensure no new logging in performance-critical paths

-# Custom Instructions File Guidelines
-
-Instructions for creating effective and maintainable custom instruction files that guide GitHub Copilot in generating domain-specific code and following project conventions.
-
-## Project Context
-
-- Target audience: Developers and GitHub Copilot working with domain-specific code
-- File format: Markdown with YAML frontmatter
-- File naming convention: lowercase with hyphens (e.g., `react-best-practices.instructions.md`)
-- Location: `.github/instructions/` directory
-- Purpose: Provide context-aware guidance for code generation, review, and documentation
-
-## Required Frontmatter
-
-Every instruction file must include YAML frontmatter with the following fields:
-
-```yaml
----
-description: 'Brief description of the instruction purpose and scope'
-applyTo: 'glob pattern for target files (e.g., **/*.ts, **/*.py)'
----
-```
-
-### Frontmatter Guidelines
-
-- **description**: Single-quoted string, 1-500 characters, clearly stating the purpose
-- **applyTo**: Glob pattern(s) specifying which files these instructions apply to
-  - Single pattern: `'**/*.ts'`
-  - Multiple patterns: `'**/*.ts, **/*.tsx, **/*.js'`
-  - Specific files: `'src/**/*.py'`
-  - All files: `'**'`
-
-## File Structure
-
-A well-structured instruction file should include the following sections:
-
-### 1. Title and Overview
-
-- Clear, descriptive title using `#` heading
-- Brief introduction explaining the purpose and scope
-- Optional: Project context section with key technologies and versions
-
-### 2. Core Sections
-
-Organize content into logical sections based on the domain:
-
-- **General Instructions**: High-level guidelines and principles
-- **Best Practices**: Recommended patterns and approaches
-- **Code Standards**: Naming conventions, formatting, style rules
-- **Architecture/Structure**: Project organization and design patterns
-- **Common Patterns**: Frequently used implementations
-- **Security**: Security considerations (if applicable)
-- **Performance**: Optimization guidelines (if applicable)
-- **Testing**: Testing standards and approaches (if applicable)
-
-### 3. Examples and Code Snippets
-
-Provide concrete examples with clear labels:
-
-```markdown
-### Good Example
-\`\`\`language
-// Recommended approach
-code example here
-\`\`\`
-
-### Bad Example
-\`\`\`language
-// Avoid this pattern
-code example here
-\`\`\`
-```
-
-### 4. Validation and Verification (Optional but Recommended)
-
-- Build commands to verify code
-- Lint checks and formatting tools
-- Testing requirements
-- Verification steps
-
-## Content Guidelines
-
-### Writing Style
-
-- Use clear, concise language
-- Write in imperative mood ("Use", "Implement", "Avoid")
-- Be specific and actionable
-- Avoid ambiguous terms like "should", "might", "possibly"
-- Use bullet points and lists for readability
-- Keep sections focused and scannable
-
-### Best Practices
-
-- **Be Specific**: Provide concrete examples rather than abstract concepts
-- **Show Why**: Explain the reasoning behind recommendations when it adds value
-- **Use Tables**: For comparing options, listing rules, or showing patterns
-- **Include Examples**: Real code snippets are more effective than descriptions
-- **Stay Current**: Reference current versions and best practices
-- **Link Resources**: Include official documentation and authoritative sources
-
-### Common Patterns to Include
-
-1. **Naming Conventions**: How to name variables, functions, classes, files
-2. **Code Organization**: File structure, module organization, import order
-3. **Error Handling**: Preferred error handling patterns
-4. **Dependencies**: How to manage and document dependencies
-5. **Comments and Documentation**: When and how to document code
-6. **Version Information**: Target language/framework versions
-
-## Patterns to Follow
-
-### Bullet Points and Lists
-
-```markdown
-## Security Best Practices
-
-- Always validate user input before processing
-- Use parameterized queries to prevent SQL injection
-- Store secrets in environment variables, never in code
-- Implement proper authentication and authorization
-- Enable HTTPS for all production endpoints
-```
-
-### Tables for Structured Information
-
-```markdown
-## Common Issues
-
-| Issue            | Solution            | Example                       |
-| ---------------- | ------------------- | ----------------------------- |
-| Magic numbers    | Use named constants | `const MAX_RETRIES = 3`       |
-| Deep nesting     | Extract functions   | Refactor nested if statements |
-| Hardcoded values | Use configuration   | Store API URLs in config      |
-```
-
-### Code Comparison
-
-```markdown
-### Good Example - Using TypeScript interfaces
-\`\`\`typescript
-interface User {
-  id: string;
-  name: string;
-  email: string;
-}
-
-function getUser(id: string): User {
-  // Implementation
-}
-\`\`\`
-
-### Bad Example - Using any type
-\`\`\`typescript
-function getUser(id: any): any {
-  // Loses type safety
-}
-\`\`\`
-```
-
-### Conditional Guidance
-
-```markdown
-## Framework Selection
-
-- **For small projects**: Use Minimal API approach
-- **For large projects**: Use controller-based architecture with clear separation
-- **For microservices**: Consider domain-driven design patterns
-```
-
-## Patterns to Avoid
-
-- **Overly verbose explanations**: Keep it concise and scannable
-- **Outdated information**: Always reference current versions and practices
-- **Ambiguous guidelines**: Be specific about what to do or avoid
-- **Missing examples**: Abstract rules without concrete code examples
-- **Contradictory advice**: Ensure consistency throughout the file
-- **Copy-paste from documentation**: Add value by distilling and providing context
-
-## Testing Your Instructions
-
-Before finalizing instruction files:
-
-1. **Test with Copilot**: Try the instructions with actual prompts in VS Code
-2. **Verify Examples**: Ensure code examples are correct and run without errors
-3. **Check Glob Patterns**: Confirm `applyTo` patterns match intended files
-
-## Example Structure
-
-Here's a minimal example structure for a new instruction file:
-
-```markdown

-# Copilot Prompt Files Guidelines
-
-Instructions for creating effective and maintainable prompt files that guide GitHub Copilot in delivering consistent, high-quality outcomes across any repository.
-
-## Scope and Principles
-- Target audience: maintainers and contributors authoring reusable prompts for Copilot Chat.
-- Goals: predictable behaviour, clear expectations, minimal permissions, and portability across repositories.
-- Primary references: VS Code documentation on prompt files and organization-specific conventions.
-
-## Frontmatter Requirements
-
-Every prompt file should include YAML frontmatter with the following fields:
-
-### Required/Recommended Fields
-
-| Field | Required | Description |
-|-------|----------|-------------|
-| `description` | Recommended | A short description of the prompt (single sentence, actionable outcome) |
-| `name` | Optional | The name shown after typing `/` in chat. Defaults to filename if not specified |
-| `agent` | Recommended | The agent to use: `ask`, `edit`, `agent`, or a custom agent name. Defaults to current agent |
-| `model` | Optional | The language model to use. Defaults to currently selected model |
-| `tools` | Optional | List of tool/tool set names available for this prompt |
-| `argument-hint` | Optional | Hint text shown in chat input to guide user interaction |
-
-### Guidelines
-
-- Use consistent quoting (single quotes recommended) and keep one field per line for readability and version control clarity
-- If `tools` are specified and current agent is `ask` or `edit`, the default agent becomes `agent`
-- Preserve any additional metadata (`language`, `tags`, `visibility`, etc.) required by your organization
-
-## File Naming and Placement
-- Use kebab-case filenames ending with `.prompt.md` and store them under `.github/prompts/` unless your workspace standard specifies another directory.
-- Provide a short filename that communicates the action (for example, `generate-readme.prompt.md` rather than `prompt1.prompt.md`).
-
-## Body Structure
-- Start with an `#` level heading that matches the prompt intent so it surfaces well in Quick Pick search.
-- Organize content with predictable sections. Recommended baseline: `Mission` or `Primary Directive`, `Scope & Preconditions`, `Inputs`, `Workflow` (step-by-step), `Output Expectations`, and `Quality Assurance`.
-- Adjust section names to fit the domain, but retain the logical flow: why → context → inputs → actions → outputs → validation.
-- Reference related prompts or instruction files using relative links to aid discoverability.
-
-## Input and Context Handling
-- Use `${input:variableName[:placeholder]}` for required values and explain when the user must supply them. Provide defaults or alternatives where possible.
-- Call out contextual variables such as `${selection}`, `${file}`, `${workspaceFolder}` only when they are essential, and describe how Copilot should interpret them.
-- Document how to proceed when mandatory context is missing (for example, “Request the file path and stop if it remains undefined”).
-
-## Tool and Permission Guidance
-- Limit `tools` to the smallest set that enables the task. List them in the preferred execution order when the sequence matters.
-- If the prompt inherits tools from a chat mode, mention that relationship and state any critical tool behaviours or side effects.
-- Warn about destructive operations (file creation, edits, terminal commands) and include guard rails or confirmation steps in the workflow.
-
-## Instruction Tone and Style
-- Write in direct, imperative sentences targeted at Copilot (for example, “Analyze”, “Generate”, “Summarize”).
-- Keep sentences short and unambiguous, following Google Developer Documentation translation best practices to support localization.
-- Avoid idioms, humor, or culturally specific references; favor neutral, inclusive language.
-
-## Output Definition
-- Specify the format, structure, and location of expected results (for example, “Create an architecture decision record file using the template below, such as `docs/architecture-decisions/record-XXXX.md`).
-- Include success criteria and failure triggers so Copilot knows when to halt or retry.
-- Provide validation steps—manual checks, automated commands, or acceptance criteria lists—that reviewers can execute after running the prompt.
-
-## Examples and Reusable Assets
-- Embed Good/Bad examples or scaffolds (Markdown templates, JSON stubs) that the prompt should produce or follow.
-- Maintain reference tables (capabilities, status codes, role descriptions) inline to keep the prompt self-contained. Update these tables when upstream resources change.
-- Link to authoritative documentation instead of duplicating lengthy guidance.
-
-## Quality Assurance Checklist
-- [ ] Frontmatter fields are complete, accurate, and least-privilege.
-- [ ] Inputs include placeholders, default behaviours, and fallbacks.
-- [ ] Workflow covers preparation, execution, and post-processing without gaps.
-- [ ] Output expectations include formatting and storage details.
-- [ ] Validation steps are actionable (commands, diff checks, review prompts).
-- [ ] Security, compliance, and privacy policies referenced by the prompt are current.
-- [ ] Prompt executes successfully in VS Code (`Chat: Run Prompt`) using representative scenarios.
-
-## Maintenance Guidance
-- Version-control prompts alongside the code they affect; update them when dependencies, tooling, or review processes change.
-- Review prompts periodically to ensure tool lists, model requirements, and linked documents remain valid.
-- Coordinate with other repositories: when a prompt proves broadly useful, extract common guidance into instruction files or shared prompt packs.

-applyTo: 'src/runner/**,src/settings-ui/**'
----
-
-# Runner & Settings UI – Core Components Guidance
-
-Guidelines for modifying the Runner (tray/module loader) and Settings UI (configuration app). These components communicate via Windows Named Pipes using JSON messages.
-
-## Runner (`src/runner/`)
-
-### Scope
-
-- Module bootstrap, hotkey management, settings bridge, update/elevation handling
-
-### Guidelines
-
-- If IPC/JSON contracts change, mirror updates in `src/settings-ui/**`
-- Keep module discovery in `src/runner/main.cpp` in sync when adding/removing modules
-- Keep startup lean: avoid blocking/network calls in early init path
-- Preserve GPO & elevation behaviors; confirm no regression in policy handling
-- Ask before modifying update workflow or elevation logic
-
-### Acceptance Criteria
-
-- Stable startup, consistent contracts, no unnecessary logging noise
-
-## Settings UI (`src/settings-ui/`)
-
-### Scope
-
-- WinUI/WPF UI, communicates with Runner over named pipes; manages persisted settings schema
-
-### Guidelines
-
-- Don't break settings schema silently; add migration when shape changes
-- If IPC/JSON contracts change, align with `src/runner/**` implementation
-- Keep UI responsive: marshal to UI thread for UI-bound operations
-- Reuse existing styles/resources; avoid duplicate theme keys
-- Add/adjust migration or serialization tests when changing persisted settings
-
-### Acceptance Criteria
-
-- Schema integrity preserved, responsive UI, consistent contracts, no style duplication
-
-## Shared Concerns
-
-### IPC Contract Changes
-
-When modifying the JSON message format between Runner and Settings UI:
-
-1. Update both `src/runner/` and `src/settings-ui/` in the same PR
-2. Preserve backward compatibility where possible
-3. Add migration logic for settings schema changes
-4. Test both directions of communication
-
-### Code Style
-
-- **C++ (Runner)**: Follow `.clang-format` in `src/`
-- **C# (Settings UI)**: Follow `src/.editorconfig`, use StyleCop.Analyzers
-- **XAML**: Use XamlStyler or run `.\.pipelines\applyXamlStyling.ps1 -Main`
-
-## Validation
-
-- Build Runner: `tools\build\build.cmd` from `src/runner/`
-- Build Settings UI: `tools\build\build.cmd` from `src/settings-ui/`
-- Test IPC: Launch both Runner and Settings UI, verify communication works
-- Schema changes: Run serialization tests if settings shape changed

-# TypeScript MCP Server Development
-
-## Instructions
-
-- Use the **@modelcontextprotocol/sdk** npm package: `npm install @modelcontextprotocol/sdk`
-- Import from specific paths: `@modelcontextprotocol/sdk/server/mcp.js`, `@modelcontextprotocol/sdk/server/stdio.js`, etc.
-- Use `McpServer` class for high-level server implementation with automatic protocol handling
-- Use `Server` class for low-level control with manual request handlers
-- Use **zod** for input/output schema validation: `npm install zod@3`
-- Always provide `title` field for tools, resources, and prompts for better UI display
-- Use `registerTool()`, `registerResource()`, and `registerPrompt()` methods (recommended over older APIs)
-- Define schemas using zod: `{ inputSchema: { param: z.string() }, outputSchema: { result: z.string() } }`
-- Return both `content` (for display) and `structuredContent` (for structured data) from tools
-- For HTTP servers, use `StreamableHTTPServerTransport` with Express or similar frameworks
-- For local integrations, use `StdioServerTransport` for stdio-based communication
-- Create new transport instances per request to prevent request ID collisions (stateless mode)
-- Use session management with `sessionIdGenerator` for stateful servers
-- Enable DNS rebinding protection for local servers: `enableDnsRebindingProtection: true`
-- Configure CORS headers and expose `Mcp-Session-Id` for browser-based clients
-- Use `ResourceTemplate` for dynamic resources with URI parameters: `new ResourceTemplate('resource://{param}', { list: undefined })`
-- Support completions for better UX using `completable()` wrapper from `@modelcontextprotocol/sdk/server/completable.js`
-- Implement sampling with `server.server.createMessage()` to request LLM completions from clients
-- Use `server.server.elicitInput()` to request additional user input during tool execution
-- Enable notification debouncing for bulk updates: `debouncedNotificationMethods: ['notifications/tools/list_changed']`
-- Dynamic updates: call `.enable()`, `.disable()`, `.update()`, or `.remove()` on registered items to emit `listChanged` notifications
-- Use `getDisplayName()` from `@modelcontextprotocol/sdk/shared/metadataUtils.js` for UI display names
-- Test servers with MCP Inspector: `npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector`
-
-## Best Practices
-
-- Keep tool implementations focused on single responsibilities
-- Provide clear, descriptive titles and descriptions for LLM understanding
-- Use proper TypeScript types for all parameters and return values
-- Implement comprehensive error handling with try-catch blocks
-- Return `isError: true` in tool results for error conditions
-- Use async/await for all asynchronous operations
-- Close database connections and clean up resources properly
-- Validate input parameters before processing
-- Use structured logging for debugging without polluting stdout/stderr
-- Consider security implications when exposing file system or network access
-- Implement proper resource cleanup on transport close events
-- Use environment variables for configuration (ports, API keys, etc.)
-- Document tool capabilities and limitations clearly
-- Test with multiple clients to ensure compatibility
-
-## Common Patterns
-
-### Basic Server Setup (HTTP)
-```typescript
-import { McpServer } from '@modelcontextprotocol/sdk/server/mcp.js';
-import { StreamableHTTPServerTransport } from '@modelcontextprotocol/sdk/server/streamableHttp.js';
-import express from 'express';
-
-const server = new McpServer({
-    name: 'my-server',
-    version: '1.0.0'
-});
-
-const app = express();
-app.use(express.json());
-
-app.post('/mcp', async (req, res) => {
-    const transport = new StreamableHTTPServerTransport({
-        sessionIdGenerator: undefined,
-        enableJsonResponse: true
-    });
-    
-    res.on('close', () => transport.close());
-    
-    await server.connect(transport);
-    await transport.handleRequest(req, res, req.body);
-});
-
-app.listen(3000);
-```
-
-### Basic Server Setup (stdio)
-```typescript
-import { McpServer } from '@modelcontextprotocol/sdk/server/mcp.js';
-import { StdioServerTransport } from '@modelcontextprotocol/sdk/server/stdio.js';
-
-const server = new McpServer({
-    name: 'my-server',
-    version: '1.0.0'
-});
-
-// ... register tools, resources, prompts ...
-
-const transport = new StdioServerTransport();
-await server.connect(transport);
-```
-
-### Simple Tool
-```typescript
-import { z } from 'zod';
-
-server.registerTool(
-    'calculate',
-    {
-        title: 'Calculator',
-        description: 'Perform basic calculations',
-        inputSchema: { a: z.number(), b: z.number(), op: z.enum(['+', '-', '*', '/']) },
-        outputSchema: { result: z.number() }
-    },
-    async ({ a, b, op }) => {
-        const result = op === '+' ? a + b : op === '-' ? a - b : 
-                      op === '*' ? a * b : a / b;
-        const output = { result };
-        return {
-            content: [{ type: 'text', text: JSON.stringify(output) }],
-            structuredContent: output
-        };
-    }
-);
-```
-
-### Dynamic Resource
-```typescript
-import { ResourceTemplate } from '@modelcontextprotocol/sdk/server/mcp.js';
-
-server.registerResource(
-    'user',
-    new ResourceTemplate('users://{userId}', { list: undefined }),
-    {
-        title: 'User Profile',
-        description: 'Fetch user profile data'
-    },
-    async (uri, { userId }) => ({
-        contents: [{
-            uri: uri.href,
-            text: `User ${userId} data here`
-        }]
-    })
-);
-```
-
-### Tool with Sampling
-```typescript
-server.registerTool(
-    'summarize',
-    {
-        title: 'Text Summarizer',
-        description: 'Summarize text using LLM',
-        inputSchema: { text: z.string() },
-        outputSchema: { summary: z.string() }
-    },
-    async ({ text }) => {
-        const response = await server.server.createMessage({
-            messages: [{
-                role: 'user',
-                content: { type: 'text', text: `Summarize: ${text}` }
-            }],
-            maxTokens: 500
-        });
-        
-        const summary = response.content.type === 'text' ? 
-            response.content.text : 'Unable to summarize';
-        const output = { summary };
-        return {
-            content: [{ type: 'text', text: JSON.stringify(output) }],
-            structuredContent: output
-        };
-    }
-);
-```
-
-### Prompt with Completion
-```typescript
-import { completable } from '@modelcontextprotocol/sdk/server/completable.js';
-
-server.registerPrompt(
-    'review',
-    {
-        title: 'Code Review',
-        description: 'Review code with specific focus',
-        argsSchema: {
-            language: completable(z.string(), value => 
-                ['typescript', 'python', 'javascript', 'java']
-                    .filter(l => l.startsWith(value))
-            ),
-            code: z.string()
-        }
-    },
-    ({ language, code }) => ({
-        messages: [{
-            role: 'user',
-            content: {
-                type: 'text',
-                text: `Review this ${language} code:\n\n${code}`
-            }
-        }]
-    })
-);
-```
-
-### Error Handling
-```typescript
-server.registerTool(
-    'risky-operation',
-    {
-        title: 'Risky Operation',
-        description: 'An operation that might fail',
-        inputSchema: { input: z.string() },
-        outputSchema: { result: z.string() }
-    },
-    async ({ input }) => {
-        try {
-            const result = await performRiskyOperation(input);
-            const output = { result };
-            return {
-                content: [{ type: 'text', text: JSON.stringify(output) }],
-                structuredContent: output
-            };
-        } catch (err: unknown) {
-            const error = err as Error;
-            return {
-                content: [{ type: 'text', text: `Error: ${error.message}` }],
-                isError: true
-            };
-        }
-    }
-);

-description: 'Generate an 80-character git commit title for the local diff'
----
-
-# Generate Commit Title
-
-## Purpose
-Provide a single-line, ready-to-paste git commit title (<= 80 characters) that reflects the most important local changes since `HEAD`.
-
-## Input to collect
-- Run exactly one command to view the local diff:
-  ```@terminal
-  git diff HEAD
-  ```
-
-## How to decide the title
-1. From the diff, find the dominant area (e.g., `src/modules/*`, `doc/devdocs/**`) and the change type (bug fix, docs update, config tweak).
-2. Draft an imperative, plain-ASCII title that:
-   - Mentions the primary component when obvious (e.g., `FancyZones:` or `Docs:`)
-   - Stays within 80 characters and has no trailing punctuation
-
-## Final output
-- Reply with only the commit title on a single line—no extra text.
-
-## PR title convention (when asked)
-Use Conventional Commits style:
-
-`<type>(<scope>): <summary>`
-
-**Allowed types**
-- feat, fix, docs, refactor, perf, test, build, ci, chore
-
-**Scope rules**
-- Use a short, PowerToys-focused scope (one word preferred). Common scopes:
-  - Core: `runner`, `settings-ui`, `common`, `docs`, `build`, `ci`, `installer`, `gpo`, `dsc`
-  - Modules: `fancyzones`, `powerrename`, `awake`, `colorpicker`, `imageresizer`, `keyboardmanager`, `mouseutils`, `peek`, `hosts`, `file-locksmith`, `screen-ruler`, `text-extractor`, `cropandlock`, `paste`, `powerlauncher`
-- If unclear, pick the closest module or subsystem; omit only if unavoidable
-
-**Summary rules**
-- Imperative, present tense (“add”, “update”, “remove”, “fix”)

----
-
-# Generate PR Summary
-
-**Goal:** Produce a ready-to-paste PR title and description that follows PowerToys conventions by comparing the current branch against a user-selected target branch.
-
-**Repo guardrails:**
-- Treat `.github/pull_request_template.md` as the single source of truth; load it at runtime instead of embedding hardcoded content in this prompt.
-- Preserve section order from the template but only surface checklist lines that are relevant for the detected changes, filling them with `[x]`/`[ ]` as appropriate.
-- Cite touched paths with inline backticks, matching the guidance in `.github/copilot-instructions.md`.
-- Call out test coverage explicitly: list automated tests run (unit/UI) or state why they are not applicable.
-
-**Workflow:**
-1. Determine the target branch from user context; default to `main` when no branch is supplied.
-2. Run `git status --short` once to surface uncommitted files that may influence the summary.
-3. Run `git diff <target-branch>...HEAD` a single time to review the detailed changes. Only when confidence stays low dig deeper with focused calls such as `git diff <target-branch>...HEAD -- <path>`.
-4. From the diff, capture impacted areas, key file changes, behavioral risks, migrations, and noteworthy edge cases.
-5. Confirm validation: list tests executed with results or state why tests were skipped in line with repo guidance.
-6. Load `.github/pull_request_template.md`, mirror its section order, and populate it with the gathered facts. Include only relevant checklist entries, marking them `[x]/[ ]` and noting any intentional omissions as "N/A".
-7. Present the filled template inside a fenced ```markdown code block with no extra commentary so it is ready to paste into a PR, clearly flagging any placeholders that still need user input.
-8. Prepend the PR title above the filled template, applying the Conventional Commit type/scope rules from `.github/prompts/create-commit-title.prompt.md`; pick the dominant component from the diff and keep the title concise and imperative.

-Source review prompt (for generating the implementation plan if missing):
-- .github/prompts/review-issue.prompt.md
-
-Required plan file (single source of truth):
-- Generated Files/issueReview/{{issue_number}}/implementation-plan.md
-
-## Dependency Handling
-1) If `implementation-plan.md` exists → proceed.
-2) If missing → run the review prompt:
-   - Invoke: `.github/prompts/review-issue.prompt.md`
-   - Pass: `issue_number={{issue_number}}`
-   - Then re-check for `implementation-plan.md`.
-3) If still missing → stop and generate:
-   - `Generated Files/issueFix/{{issue_number}}/manual-steps.md` containing:
-     “implementation-plan.md not found; please run .github/prompts/review-issue.prompt.md for #{{issue_number}}.”
-
-# GOAL
-For **#{{issue_number}}**:
-- Use implementation-plan.md as the single authority.
-- Apply code and test changes directly in the repository.
-- Produce a PR-ready description.
-
-# OUTPUT FILES
-1) Generated Files/issueFix/{{issue_number}}/pr-description.md
-2) Generated Files/issueFix/{{issue_number}}/manual-steps.md   # only if human interaction or external setup is required
-
-# EXECUTION RULES
-1) Read implementation-plan.md and execute:
-   - Layers & Files → edit/create as listed
-   - Pattern Choices → follow repository conventions
-   - Fundamentals (perf, security, compatibility, accessibility)
-   - Logging & Exceptions
-   - Telemetry (only if explicitly included in the plan)
-   - Risks & Mitigations
-   - Tests to Add
-2) Locate affected files via `rg` or `git grep`.
-3) Add/update tests to enforce the fixed behavior.
-4) If any ambiguity exists, add:
-// TODO(Human input needed): <clarification needed>
-5) Verify locally: build & tests run successfully.
-
-# pr-description.md should include:
-- Title: `Fix: <short summary> (#{{issue_number}})`
-- What changed and why the fix works
-- Files or modules touched
-- Risks & mitigations (implemented)
-- Tests added/updated and how to run them
-- Telemetry behavior (if applicable)
-- Validation / reproduction steps
-- `Closes #{{issue_number}}`
-
-# manual-steps.md (only if needed)
-- List required human actions: secrets, config, approvals, missing info, or code comments requiring human decisions.
-
-# IMPORTANT
-- Apply code and tests directly; do not produce patch files.
-- Follow implementation-plan.md as the source of truth.
-- Insert comments for human review where a decision or input is required.
-- Use repository conventions and deterministic, minimal changes.
-
-# FINALIZE
-- Write pr-description.md
-- Write manual-steps.md only if needed

-# Fix Spelling Comments
-
-**Goal:** Clear every outstanding GitHub pull request comment created by the `Code scanning / check-spelling` workflow by explicitly allowing intentional terms.
-
-**Guardrails:**
-- Update only discussion threads authored by `github-actions` or `github-actions[bot]` that mention `Code scanning results / check-spelling`.
-- Prefer improving the wording in the originally flagged file when it clarifies intent without changing meaning; if the wording is already clear/standard for the context, handle it via `.github/actions/spell-check/expect.txt` and reuse existing entries.
-- Limit edits to the flagged text and `.github/actions/spell-check/expect.txt`; leave all other files and topics untouched.
-
-**Prerequisites:**
-- Install GitHub CLI if it is not present: `winget install GitHub.cli`.
-- Run `gh auth login` once before the first CLI use.
-
-**Workflow:**
-1. Determine the active pull request with a single `gh pr view --json number` call (default to the current branch).
-2. Fetch all PR discussion data once via `gh pr view --json comments,reviews` and filter to check-spelling comments authored by `github-actions` or `github-actions[bot]` that are not minimized; when several remain, process only the most recent comment body.
-3. For each flagged token, first consider tightening or rephrasing the original text to avoid the false positive while keeping the meaning intact; if the existing wording is already normal and professional for the context, proceed to allowlisting instead of changing it.
-4. When allowlisting, review `.github/actions/spell-check/expect.txt` for an equivalent term (for example an existing lowercase variant); when found, reuse that normalized term rather than adding a new entry, even if the flagged token differs only by casing. Only add a new entry after confirming no equivalent already exists.
-5. Add any remaining missing token to `.github/actions/spell-check/expect.txt`, keeping surrounding formatting intact.

-# Review GitHub Issue
-
-## Goal
-For **#{{issue_number}}** produce:
-1) `Generated Files/issueReview/{{issue_number}}/overview.md`
-2) `Generated Files/issueReview/{{issue_number}}/implementation-plan.md`
-
-## Inputs
-Figure out required inputs {{issue_number}} from the invocation context; if anything is missing, ask for the value or note it as a gap.
-
-# CONTEXT (brief)
-Ground evidence using `gh issue view {{issue_number}} --json number,title,body,author,createdAt,updatedAt,state,labels,milestone,reactions,comments,linkedPullRequests`, download images via MCP `github_issue_images` to better understand the issue context. Finally, use MCP `github_issue_attachments` to download logs with parameter `extractFolder` as `Generated Files/issueReview/{{issue_number}}/logs`, and analyze the downloaded logs if available to identify relevant issues. Locate the source code in the current workspace (use `rg`/`git grep` as needed). Link related issues and PRs.
-
-## When to call MCP tools
-If the following MCP "github-artifacts" tools are available in the environment, use them:
-- `github_issue_images`: use when the issue/PR likely contains screenshots or other visual evidence (UI bugs, glitches, design problems).
-- `github_issue_attachments`: use when the issue/PR mentions attached ZIPs (PowerToysReport_*.zip, logs.zip, debug.zip) or asks to analyze logs/diagnostics. Always provide `extractFolder` as `Generated Files/issueReview/{{issue_number}}/logs`
-
-If these tools are not available (not listed by the runtime), start the MCP server "github-artifacts" first.

-Type/level: bug/feature/chore/docs/refactor/test-only; severity/value tier.
-
-## Suggested Actions
-Provide actionable recommendations for issue triage and assignment:
-
-### A) Requirement Clarification (if Clarity score <50)
-**When Requirement Clarity (Dimension D) is Medium or Low:**
-- Identify specific gaps in issue description: missing repro steps, unclear expected behavior, undefined acceptance criteria, missing non-functional requirements
-- Draft 3-5 clarifying questions to post as issue comment
-- Suggest additional information needed: screenshots, logs, environment details, OS version, PowerToys version, error messages
-- If behavior is ambiguous, propose 2-3 interpretation scenarios and ask reporter to confirm
-- Example questions:
-  - "Can you provide exact steps to reproduce this issue?"
-  - "What is the expected behavior vs. what you're actually seeing?"
-  - "Does this happen on Windows 10, 11, or both?"
-  - "Can you attach a screenshot or screen recording?"
-
-### B) Correct Label Suggestions
-- Analyze issue type, module, and severity to suggest missing or incorrect labels
-- Recommend labels from: `Issue-Bug`, `Issue-Feature`, `Issue-Docs`, `Issue-Task`, `Priority-High`, `Priority-Medium`, `Priority-Low`, `Needs-Triage`, `Needs-Author-Feedback`, `Product-<ModuleName>`, etc.
-- If Requirement Clarity is low (<50), add `Needs-Author-Feedback` label
-- If current labels are incorrect or incomplete, provide specific label changes with rationale
-
-### C) Find Similar Issues & Past Fixes
-- Search for similar issues using `gh issue list --search "keywords" --state all --json number,title,state,closedAt`
-- Identify patterns: duplicate issues, related bugs, or similar feature requests
-- For closed issues, find linked PRs that fixed them: check `linkedPullRequests` in issue data
-- Provide 3-5 examples of similar issues with format: `#<number> - <title> (closed by PR #<pr>)` or `(still open)`
-
-### D) Identify Subject Matter Experts
-- Use git blame/log to find who fixed similar issues in the past
-- Search for PR authors who touched relevant files: `git log --all --format='%aN' -- <file_paths> | sort | uniq -c | sort -rn | head -5`
-- Check issue/PR history for frequent contributors to the affected module
-- Suggest 2-3 potential assignees with context: `@<username> - <reason>` (e.g., "fixed similar rendering bug in #12345", "maintains FancyZones module")
-
-### E) Semantic Search for Related Work
-- Use semantic_search tool to find similar issues, code patterns, or past discussions
-- Search queries should include: issue keywords, module names, error messages, feature descriptions
-- Cross-reference semantic results with GitHub issue search for comprehensive coverage

-# IMPLEMENTATION-PLAN.MD
-1) **Problem Framing** — restate problem; current vs expected; scope boundaries.  
-2) **Layers & Files** — layers (UI/domain/data/infra/build). For each, list **files/dirs to modify** and **new files** (exact paths + why). Prefer repo patterns; cite examples/PRs.  
-3) **Pattern Choices** — reuse existing; if new, justify trade-offs & transition.  
-4) **Fundamentals** (brief plan or N/A + reason):
-- Performance (hot paths, allocs, caching/streaming)
-- Security (validation, authN/Z, secrets, SSRF/XSS/CSRF)
-- G11N/L10N (resources, number/date, pluralization)
-- Compatibility (public APIs, formats, OS/runtime/toolchain)
-- Extensibility (DI seams, options/flags, plugin points)
-- Accessibility (roles, labels, focus, keyboard, contrast)
-- SOLID & repo conventions (naming, folders, dependency direction)
-5) **Logging & Exception Handling**
-- Where to log; levels; structured fields; correlation/traces.
-- What to catch vs rethrow; retries/backoff; user-visible errors.
-- **Privacy**: never log secrets/PII; redaction policy.
-6) **Telemetry (optional — business metrics only)**
-- Events/metrics (name, when, props); success signal; privacy/sampling; dashboards/alerts.
-7) **Risks & Mitigations** — flags/canary/shadow-write/config guards.  
-8) **Task Breakdown (agent-ready)** — table (leave a blank line before the header so Markdown renders correctly):
-
-| Task | Intent | Files/Areas | Steps | Tests (brief) | Owner (Agent/Human) | Human interaction needed? (why) |
-|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
-
-9) **Tests to Add (only)**
-- **Unit**: targets, cases (success/edge/error), mocks/fixtures, path, notes.  
-- **UI** (if applicable): flows, locator strategy, env/data/flags, path, flake mitigation.

-description: 'Perform a comprehensive PR review with per-step Markdown and machine-readable outputs'
----
-
-# Review Pull Request
-
-**Goal**: Given `{{pr_number}}`, run a *one-topic-per-step* review. Write files to `Generated Files/prReview/{{pr_number}}/` (replace `{{pr_number}}` with the integer). Emit machine‑readable blocks for a GitHub MCP to post review comments.
-
-## PR selection
-Resolve the target PR using these fallbacks in order:
-1. Parse the invocation text for an explicit identifier (first integer following patterns such as a leading hash and digits or the text `PR:` followed by digits).
-2. If no PR is found yet, locate the newest `Generated Files/prReview/_batch/batch-overview-*.md` file (highest timestamp in filename, fallback newest mtime) and take the first entry in its `## PRs` list whose review folder is missing `00-OVERVIEW.md` or contains `__error.flag`.
-3. If the batch file has no pending PRs, query assignments with `gh pr list --assignee @me --state open --json number,updatedAt --limit 20` and pick the most recently updated PR that does not already have a completed review folder.
-4. If still unknown, run `gh pr view --json number` in the current branch and use that result when it is unambiguous.
-5. If every step above fails, prompt the user for a PR number before proceeding.
-
-## Fetch PR data with `gh`
-- `gh pr view {{pr_number}} --json number,baseRefName,headRefName,baseRefOid,headRefOid,changedFiles,files`
-- `gh api repos/:owner/:repo/pulls/{{pr_number}}/files?per_page=250`  # patches for line mapping
-
-### Incremental review workflow
-1. **Check for existing review**: Read `Generated Files/prReview/{{pr_number}}/00-OVERVIEW.md`
-2. **Extract state**: Parse `Last reviewed SHA:` from review metadata section
-3. **Detect changes**: Run `Get-PrIncrementalChanges.ps1 -PullRequestNumber {{pr_number}} -LastReviewedCommitSha {{sha}}`
-4. **Analyze result**:
-   - `NeedFullReview: true` → Review all files in the PR
-   - `NeedFullReview: false` and `IsIncremental: true` → Review only files in `ChangedFiles` array
-   - `ChangedFiles` is empty → No changes, skip review (update iteration history with "No changes since last review")
-5. **Apply smart filtering**: Use the file patterns in smart step filtering table to skip irrelevant steps
-6. **Update metadata**: After completing review, save current `headRefOid` as `Last reviewed SHA:` in `00-OVERVIEW.md`
-
-### Reusable PowerShell scripts
-Scripts live in `.github/review-tools/` to avoid repeated manual approvals during PR reviews:
-
-| Script | Usage |
-| --- | --- |
-| `.github/review-tools/Get-GitHubRawFile.ps1` | Download a repository file at a given ref, optionally with line numbers. |
-| `.github/review-tools/Get-GitHubPrFilePatch.ps1` | Fetch the unified diff for a specific file within a pull request via `gh api`. |
-| `.github/review-tools/Get-PrIncrementalChanges.ps1` | Compare last reviewed SHA with current PR head to identify incremental changes. Returns JSON with changed files, new commits, and whether full review is needed. |
-| `.github/review-tools/Test-IncrementalReview.ps1` | Test helper to preview incremental review detection for a PR. Use before running full review to see what changed. |
-
-Always prefer these scripts (or new ones added under `.github/review-tools/`) over raw `gh api` or similar shell commands so the review flow does not trigger interactive approval prompts.
-
-## Output files
-Folder: `Generated Files/prReview/{{pr_number}}/`
-Files: `00-OVERVIEW.md`, `01-functionality.md`, `02-compatibility.md`, `03-performance.md`, `04-accessibility.md`, `05-security.md`, `06-localization.md`, `07-globalization.md`, `08-extensibility.md`, `09-solid-design.md`, `10-repo-patterns.md`, `11-docs-automation.md`, `12-code-comments.md`, `13-copilot-guidance.md` *(only if guidance md exists).* 
-- **Write-after-step rule:** Immediately after completing each TODO step, persist that step's markdown file before proceeding to the next. Generate `00-OVERVIEW.md` only after every step file has been refreshed for the current run.
-
-## Iteration management
-- Determine the current review iteration by reading `00-OVERVIEW.md` (look for `Review iteration:`). If missing, assume iteration `1`.
-- Extract the last reviewed SHA from `00-OVERVIEW.md` (look for `Last reviewed SHA:` in the review metadata section). If missing, this is iteration 1.
-- **Incremental review detection**:
-  1. Call `.github/review-tools/Get-PrIncrementalChanges.ps1 -PullRequestNumber {{pr_number}} -LastReviewedCommitSha {{last_sha}}` to get delta analysis.
-  2. Parse the JSON result to determine if incremental review is possible (`IsIncremental: true`, `NeedFullReview: false`).
-  3. If force-push detected or first review, proceed with full review of all changed files.
-  4. If incremental, review only the files listed in `ChangedFiles` array and apply smart step filtering (see below).
-- Increment the iteration for each review run and propagate the new value to all step files and the overview.
-- Preserve prior iteration notes by keeping/expanding an `## Iteration history` section in each markdown file, appending the newest summary under `### Iteration <N>`.
-- Summaries should capture key deltas since the previous iteration so reruns can pick up context quickly.
-- **After review completion**, update `Last reviewed SHA:` in `00-OVERVIEW.md` with the current `headRefOid` and update the timestamp.
-
-### Smart step filtering (incremental reviews only)
-When performing incremental review, skip steps that are irrelevant based on changed file types:
-
-| File pattern | Required steps | Skippable steps |
-| --- | --- | --- |
-| `**/*.cs`, `**/*.cpp`, `**/*.h` | Functionality, Compatibility, Performance, Security, SOLID, Repo patterns, Code comments | (depends on files) |
-| `**/*.resx`, `**/Resources/*.xaml` | Localization, Globalization | Most others |
-| `**/*.md` (docs) | Docs & automation | Most others (unless copilot guidance) |
-| `**/*copilot*.md`, `.github/prompts/*.md` | Copilot guidance, Docs & automation | Most others |
-| `**/*.csproj`, `**/*.vcxproj`, `**/packages.config` | Compatibility, Security, Repo patterns | Localization, Globalization, Accessibility |
-| `**/UI/**`, `**/*View.xaml` | Accessibility, Localization | Performance (unless perf-sensitive controls) |
-
-**Default**: If uncertain or files span multiple categories, run all applicable steps. When in doubt, be conservative and review more rather than less.
-
-## TODO steps (one concern each)
-1) Functionality
-2) Compatibility
-3) Performance
-4) Accessibility
-5) Security
-6) Localization
-7) Globalization
-8) Extensibility
-9) SOLID principles
-10) Repo patterns
-11) Docs & automation coverage for the changes
-12) Code comments
-13) Copilot guidance (conditional): if changed folders contain `*copilot*.md` or `.github/prompts/*.md`, review diffs **against** that guidance and write `13-copilot-guidance.md` (omit if none).

-Mark steps as "Skipped" when using incremental review smart filtering.
-
-## Iteration history
-- Maintain subsections titled `### Iteration N` mirroring the per-step convention with concise deltas and cross-links to the relevant step files.
-- For incremental reviews, list the specific files that changed and which commits were added.
-```
-
-## Line numbers & multi‑file issues
-- Map head‑side lines from `patch` hunks (`@@ -a,b +c,d @@` → new lines `+c..+c+d-1`).
-- For cross‑file issues: set the primary `"file"`, list others in `"related_files"`, and name them in `"body"`.
-
-## Posting (for MCP)
-- Parse all ```mcp-review-comment``` blocks across step files and post as PR review comments.
-- If posting isn’t available, still write all files.
-
-## Constraint
-Read/analyze only; don't modify code. Keep comments small, specific, and fix‑oriented.
-
-**Testing**: Use `.github/review-tools/Test-IncrementalReview.ps1 -PullRequestNumber 42374` to preview incremental detection before running full review.
-
-## Scratch cache for large PRs
-
-Create a local scratch workspace to progressively summarize diffs and reload state across runs.
-
-### Paths
-- Root: `Generated Files/prReview/{{pr_number}}/__tmp/`
-- Files:
-  - `index.jsonl` — append-only JSON Lines index of artifacts.
-  - `todo-queue.json` — pending items (files/chunks/steps).
-  - `rollup-<step>-v<N>.md` — iterative per-step aggregates.
-  - `file-<hash>.txt` — optional saved chunk text (when needed).
-
-### JSON schema (per line in `index.jsonl`)
-```json
-{"type":"chunk|summary|issue|crosslink",
- "path":"relative/file.ext","chunk_id":"f-12","step":"functionality|compatibility|...",
- "base_sha":"...", "head_sha":"...", "range":[start,end], "version":1,
- "notes":"short text or key:value map", "created_utc":"ISO8601"}
-```
-
-### Phases (stateful; resume-safe)
-0. **Discover** PR + SHAs: `gh pr view <PR> --json baseRefName,headRefName,baseRefOid,headRefOid,files`.
-1. **Chunk** each changed file (head): split into ~300–600 LOC or ~4k chars; stable `chunk_id` = hash(path+start).
-   - Save `chunk` records. Optionally write `file-<hash>.txt` for expensive chunks.
-2. **Summarize** per chunk: intent, APIs, risks per TODO step; emit `summary` records (≤600 tokens each).
-3. **Issues**: convert findings to machine-readable blocks and emit `issue` records (later rendered to step MD).
-4. **Rollups**: build/update `rollup-<step>-v<N>.md` from `summary`+`issue`. Keep prior versions.
-5. **Finalize**: write per-step files + `00-OVERVIEW.md` from rollups. Post comments via MCP if available.
-
-### Re-use & token limits
-- Always **reload** `index.jsonl` first; skip chunks with same `head_sha` and `range`.
-- **Incremental review optimization**: When `Get-PrIncrementalChanges.ps1` returns a subset of changed files, load only chunks from those files. Reuse existing chunks/summaries for unchanged files.
-- Prefer re-summarizing only changed chunks; merge chunk summaries → file summaries → step rollups.
-- When context is tight, load only the minimal chunk text (or its saved `file-<hash>.txt`) needed for a comment.
-
-### Original vs diff
-- Fetch base content when needed: prefer `git show <baseRefName>:<path>`; fallback `gh api repos/:owner/:repo/contents/<path>?ref=<base_sha>` (base64).
-- Use patch hunks from `gh api .../pulls/<PR>/files` to compute **head** line numbers.
-
-### Queue-driven loop
-- Seed `todo-queue.json` with all changed files.
-- Process: chunk → summarize → detect issues → roll up.
-- Append to `index.jsonl` after each step; never rewrite previous lines (append-only).
-
-### Hygiene
-- `__tmp/` is implementation detail; do not include in final artifacts.
-- It is safe to delete to force a clean pass; the next run rebuilds it.

-<#
-.SYNOPSIS
-    Detects changes between the last reviewed commit and current head of a pull request.
-
-.DESCRIPTION
-    This script compares a previously reviewed commit SHA with the current head of a pull request
-    to determine what has changed. It helps enable incremental reviews by identifying new commits
-    and modified files since the last review iteration.
-
-    The script handles several scenarios:
-    - First review (no previous SHA provided)
-    - No changes (current SHA matches last reviewed SHA)
-    - Force-push detected (last reviewed SHA no longer in history)
-    - Incremental changes (new commits added since last review)
-
-.PARAMETER PullRequestNumber
-    The pull request number to analyze.
-
-.PARAMETER LastReviewedCommitSha
-    The commit SHA that was last reviewed. If omitted, this is treated as a first review.
-
-.PARAMETER RepositoryOwner
-    The GitHub repository owner. Defaults to "microsoft".
-
-.PARAMETER RepositoryName
-    The GitHub repository name. Defaults to "PowerToys".
-
-.OUTPUTS
-    JSON object containing:
-    - PullRequestNumber: The PR number being analyzed
-    - CurrentHeadSha: The current head commit SHA
-    - LastReviewedSha: The last reviewed commit SHA (if provided)
-    - BaseRefName: Base branch name
-    - HeadRefName: Head branch name
-    - IsIncremental: Boolean indicating if incremental review is possible
-    - NeedFullReview: Boolean indicating if a full review is required
-    - ChangedFiles: Array of files that changed (filename, status, additions, deletions)
-    - NewCommits: Array of commits added since last review (sha, message, author, date)
-    - Summary: Human-readable description of changes
-
-.EXAMPLE
-    .\Get-PrIncrementalChanges.ps1 -PullRequestNumber 42374
-    Analyzes PR #42374 with no previous review (first review scenario).
-
-.EXAMPLE
-    .\Get-PrIncrementalChanges.ps1 -PullRequestNumber 42374 -LastReviewedCommitSha "abc123def456"
-    Compares current PR state against the last reviewed commit to identify incremental changes.
-
-.EXAMPLE
-    $changes = .\Get-PrIncrementalChanges.ps1 -PullRequestNumber 42374 -LastReviewedCommitSha "abc123" | ConvertFrom-Json
-    if ($changes.IsIncremental) { Write-Host "Can perform incremental review" }

-.SYNOPSIS
-    Tests and previews incremental review detection for a pull request.
-
-.DESCRIPTION
-    This helper script validates the incremental review detection logic by analyzing an existing
-    PR review folder. It reads the last reviewed SHA from the overview file, compares it with
-    the current PR state, and displays detailed information about what has changed.
-    
-    This is useful for:
-    - Testing the incremental review system before running a full review
-    - Understanding what changed since the last review iteration
-    - Verifying that review metadata was properly recorded
-
-.PARAMETER PullRequestNumber
-    The pull request number to test incremental review detection for.
-
-.PARAMETER RepositoryOwner
-    The GitHub repository owner. Defaults to "microsoft".
-
-.PARAMETER RepositoryName
-    The GitHub repository name. Defaults to "PowerToys".
-
-.OUTPUTS
-    Colored console output displaying:
-    - Current and last reviewed commit SHAs
-    - Whether incremental review is possible
-    - List of new commits since last review
-    - List of changed files with status indicators
-    - Recommended review strategy

-```
-
-**Output:** Colored console output showing:
-- Current and last reviewed SHAs
-- Whether incremental review is possible
-- List of new commits and changed files
-- Recommended review strategy
-
-## Workflow Integration
-
-These scripts integrate with the PR review prompt (`.github/prompts/review-pr.prompt.md`).
-
-### Typical Review Flow
-
-1. **Initial Review (Iteration 1)**
-   - Review prompt processes the PR
-   - Creates `Generated Files/prReview/{PR}/00-OVERVIEW.md`
-   - Includes review metadata section with current HEAD SHA
-
-2. **Subsequent Reviews (Iteration 2+)**
-   - Review prompt reads `00-OVERVIEW.md` to get last reviewed SHA
-   - Calls `Get-PrIncrementalChanges.ps1` to detect what changed
-   - If incremental:
-     - Reviews only changed files
-     - Skips irrelevant review steps (e.g., skip Localization if no `.resx` files changed)
-   - Uses `Get-GitHubPrFilePatch.ps1` to get patches for changed files
-   - Updates `00-OVERVIEW.md` with new SHA and iteration number
-
-### Manual Testing Workflow
-
-Preview changes before review:
-```powershell
-# Check what changed in PR #42374 since last review
-.\Test-IncrementalReview.ps1 -PullRequestNumber 42374
-
-# Get incremental changes programmatically
-$changes = .\Get-PrIncrementalChanges.ps1 -PullRequestNumber 42374 -LastReviewedCommitSha "abc123" | ConvertFrom-Json
-
-if (-not $changes.NeedFullReview) {
-    Write-Host "Only need to review $($changes.ChangedFiles.Count) files"
-    
-    # Review each changed file
-    foreach ($file in $changes.ChangedFiles) {
-        Write-Host "Reviewing $($file.Filename)..."
-        .\Get-GitHubPrFilePatch.ps1 -PullRequestNumber 42374 -FilePath $file.Filename
-    }
-}
-```
-
-## Error Handling and Troubleshooting
-
-### Common Requirements
-
-All scripts:
-- Exit with code 1 on error
-- Write detailed error messages to stderr
-- Require `gh` CLI to be installed and authenticated
-
-### Common Issues
-
-**Error: "gh not found"**
-- **Solution**: Install GitHub CLI from https://cli.github.com/ and run `gh auth login`
-
-**Error: "Failed to query GitHub API"**
-- **Solution**: Verify `gh` authentication with `gh auth status`
-- **Solution**: Check PR number exists and you have repository access
-
-**Error: "PR not found"**
-- **Solution**: Verify the PR number is correct and still exists
-- **Solution**: Ensure repository owner and name are correct
-
-**Error: "SHA not found" or "Force-push detected"**
-- **Explanation**: Last reviewed SHA no longer exists in branch history (force-push occurred)
-- **Solution**: A full review is required; incremental review not possible
-
-**Tests show "FAIL" but functionality works**
-- **Explanation**: Some tests may show exit code failures even when logic is correct
-- **Solution**: Check test output message - if it says "Correctly detected", functionality is working
-
-**Error: "Could not find insertion point"**
-- **Explanation**: Overview file doesn't have expected "**Changed files:**" line
-- **Solution**: Verify overview file format is correct or regenerate it
-
-### Verification Checklist
-
-After setup, verify:
-- [ ] `Run-ReviewToolsTests.ps1` shows 9+ tests passing
-- [ ] `Get-PrIncrementalChanges.ps1` returns valid JSON
-- [ ] `Test-IncrementalReview.ps1` analyzes a PR without errors
-- [ ] `Get-GitHubRawFile.ps1` downloads files correctly
-- [ ] `Get-GitHubPrFilePatch.ps1` retrieves patches correctly
-
-## Best Practices
-
-### For Review Authors
-
-1. **Test before full review**: Use `Test-IncrementalReview.ps1` to preview changes 
-2. **Check for force-push**: Review the analysis output - force-pushes require full reviews
-3. **Smart step filtering**: Skip review steps for file types that didn't change
-
-### For Script Users
-
-1. **Use absolute paths**: When specifying folders, use absolute paths to avoid ambiguity
-2. **Check exit codes**: Scripts exit with code 1 on error - check `$LASTEXITCODE` in automation
-3. **Parse JSON output**: Use `ConvertFrom-Json` to work with structured output from `Get-PrIncrementalChanges.ps1`
-4. **Handle empty results**: Check `ChangedFiles.Count` before iterating
-
-### Performance Tips
-
-1. **Batch operations**: When reviewing multiple PRs, collect all PR numbers and process in batch
-2. **Cache raw files**: Download baseline files once and reuse for multiple comparisons
-3. **Filter early**: Use incremental detection to skip unnecessary file reviews
-4. **Parallel processing**: Consider processing independent PRs in parallel
-
-## Integration with AI Review Systems
-
-These tools are designed to work with AI-powered review systems:
-
-1. **Copilot Instructions**: This file serves as reference documentation for GitHub Copilot
-2. **Structured Output**: JSON output from scripts is easily parsed by AI systems
-3. **Incremental Intelligence**: AI can focus on changed files for more efficient reviews
-4. **Metadata Tracking**: Review iterations are tracked for context-aware suggestions
-
-### Example AI Integration
-
-```powershell
-# Get incremental changes
-$analysis = .\Get-PrIncrementalChanges.ps1 -PullRequestNumber $PR | ConvertFrom-Json
-
-# Feed to AI review system
-$reviewPrompt = @"
-Review the following changed files in PR #$PR:
-$($analysis.ChangedFiles | ForEach-Object { "- $($_.Filename) ($($_.Status))" } | Out-String)
-
-Focus on incremental changes only. Previous review was at SHA $($analysis.LastReviewedSha).
-"@
-
-# Execute AI review with context
-Invoke-AIReview -Prompt $reviewPrompt -Files $analysis.ChangedFiles
-```
-

-# Step 1: Collection and Milestones
-
-## 1.0 To-do
-- 1.0.1 Generate MemberList.md (REQUIRED)
-- 1.1 Collect PRs
-- 1.2 Assign Milestones (REQUIRED)
-
-## Required Variables
-
-⚠️ **Before starting**, confirm these values with the user:
-
-| Variable | Description | Example |
-|----------|-------------|---------|
-| `{{ReleaseVersion}}` | Target release version | `0.97` |
-| `{{PreviousReleaseTag}}` | Previous release tag from releases page | `v0.96.1` |
-
-**If user hasn't specified `{{ReleaseVersion}}`, ASK:** "What release version are we generating notes for? (e.g., 0.97)"
-
-**`{{PreviousReleaseTag}}` is derived from the releases page, not user input.** Use the latest published release tag (top of the page). You will use its tag name and tag commit SHA in Step 1.
-
----
-
-## 1.0.1 Generate MemberList.md (REQUIRED)
-
-Create `Generated Files/ReleaseNotes/MemberList.md` from the **PowerToys core team** section in [COMMUNITY.md](../../../COMMUNITY.md).
-
-Rules:
-- One GitHub username per line, **no** `@` prefix.
-- Use the usernames exactly as listed in the core team section.
-- Do not include former team members or other sections.
-
-Example (format only):
-```
-example-user
-another-user
-```
-
----
-
-## 1.1 Collect PRs
-
-### 1.1.1 Get the previous release commit
-
-1. Open the [PowerToys releases page](https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/releases/)
-2. Find the latest release (e.g., v0.96.1, which should be at the top)
-3. Set `{{PreviousReleaseTag}}` to that tag name (e.g., `v0.96.1`)
-4. Copy the full tag commit SHA as `{{SHALastRelease}}`
-
-
-**If the release SHA is not in your branch history:** Use the helper script to find an equivalent commit on the target branch by matching the commit title:
-
-```powershell
-pwsh ./.github/skills/release-note-generation/scripts/find-commit-by-title.ps1 `
-    -Commit '{{SHALastRelease}}' `
-    -Branch 'stable'
-```
-
-### 1.1.2 Run collection script against stable branch
-
-```powershell
-# Collect PRs from previous release to current HEAD of stable branch
-pwsh ./.github/skills/release-note-generation/scripts/dump-prs-since-commit.ps1 `
-    -StartCommit '{{SHALastRelease}}' `
-    -Branch 'stable' `
-    -OutputDir 'Generated Files/ReleaseNotes'
-```
-
-**Parameters:**
-- `-StartCommit` - Previous release tag or commit SHA (exclusive)
-- `-Branch` - Always use `stable` branch, not `main` (script uses `origin/stable` as the end ref)
-- `-EndCommit` - Optional override if you need a custom end ref
-- `-OutputDir` - Output directory for generated files
-
-**Reliability check:** If the script reports “No commits found”, the stable branch has not moved since the last release. In that case, either:
-- Confirm this is expected and stop (no new release notes), or
-- Re-run against `main` to gather pending changes for the next release cycle.
-
-The script detects both merge commits (`Merge pull request #12345`) and squash commits (`Feature (#12345)`).
-
-**Output** (in `Generated Files/ReleaseNotes/`):
-- `milestone_prs.json` - raw PR data
-- `sorted_prs.csv` - sorted PR list with columns: Id, Title, Labels, Author, Url, Body, CopilotSummary, NeedThanks
-
----
-
-## 1.2 Assign Milestones (REQUIRED)
-
-**Before generating release notes**, ensure all collected PRs have the correct milestone assigned.
-
-⚠️ **CRITICAL:** Do NOT proceed to labeling until all PRs have milestones assigned.
-
-### 1.2.1 Check current milestone status (dry run)
-
-```powershell
-# Dry run first to see what would be changed:
-pwsh ./.github/skills/release-note-generation/scripts/collect-or-apply-milestones.ps1 `
-    -InputCsv 'Generated Files/ReleaseNotes/sorted_prs.csv' `
-    -OutputCsv 'Generated Files/ReleaseNotes/prs_with_milestone.csv' `
-    -DefaultMilestone 'PowerToys {{ReleaseVersion}}' `
-    -ApplyMissing -WhatIf
-```
-
-This queries GitHub for each PR's current milestone and shows which PRs would be updated.
-
-### 1.2.2 Apply milestones to PRs missing them
-
-```powershell
-# Apply for real:
-pwsh ./.github/skills/release-note-generation/scripts/collect-or-apply-milestones.ps1 `
-    -InputCsv 'Generated Files/ReleaseNotes/sorted_prs.csv' `
-    -OutputCsv 'Generated Files/ReleaseNotes/prs_with_milestone.csv' `
-    -DefaultMilestone 'PowerToys {{ReleaseVersion}}' `
-    -ApplyMissing
-```
-
-**Script Behavior:**
-- Queries each PR's current milestone from GitHub
-- PRs that already have a milestone are **skipped** (not overwritten)
-- PRs missing a milestone get the default milestone applied
-- Outputs `prs_with_milestone.csv` with (Id, Milestone) columns
-- Produces summary: `Updated=X Skipped=Y Failed=Z`
-
-**Validation:** After assignment, all PRs in `prs_with_milestone.csv` should have the target milestone.
-
----
-
-## Additional Commands
-
-### Collect milestones only (no changes to GitHub)
-```powershell
-pwsh ./.github/skills/release-note-generation/scripts/collect-or-apply-milestones.ps1 `
-    -InputCsv 'Generated Files/ReleaseNotes/sorted_prs.csv' `
-    -OutputCsv 'Generated Files/ReleaseNotes/prs_with_milestone.csv'
-```
-
-### Local assignment only (fill blanks in CSV, no GitHub changes)
-```powershell
-pwsh ./.github/skills/release-note-generation/scripts/collect-or-apply-milestones.ps1 `
-    -InputCsv 'Generated Files/ReleaseNotes/sorted_prs.csv' `
-    -OutputCsv 'Generated Files/ReleaseNotes/prs_with_milestone.csv' `
-    -DefaultMilestone 'PowerToys {{ReleaseVersion}}' `

-- 2.1 Identify unlabeled PRs (Agent Mode)
-- 2.2 Suggest labels (Agent Mode)
-- 2.3 Human label low-confidence PRs
-- 2.4 Recheck labels, delete Unlabeled.csv, and re-collect
-
-**Before grouping**, ensure all PRs have appropriate labels for categorization.
-
-⚠️ **CRITICAL:** Do NOT proceed to grouping until all PRs have labels assigned. PRs without labels will end up in `Unlabeled.csv` and won't appear in the correct release note sections.
-
-## 2.1 Identify unlabeled PRs (Agent Mode)
-
-Read `sorted_prs.csv` and identify PRs with empty or missing `Labels` column.
-
-For each unlabeled PR, analyze:
-- **Title** - Often contains module name or feature
-- **Body** - PR description with context
-- **CopilotSummary** - AI-generated summary of changes
-
-## 2.2 Suggest labels (Agent Mode)
-
-For each unlabeled PR, suggest an appropriate label based on the content analysis.
-
-**Output:** Create `Generated Files/ReleaseNotes/prs_label_review.md` with the following format:
-
-```markdown
-# PR Label Review
-
-Generated: YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm:ss
-
-## Summary
-- Total unlabeled PRs: X
-- High confidence: X
-- Medium confidence: X  
-- Low confidence: X

-
-## PRs Needing Review (sorted by confidence, low first)
-
-| PR | Title | Suggested Label | Confidence | Reason |
-|----|-------|-----------------|------------|--------|
-| [#12347](url) | Some generic fix | ??? | Low | Unclear from content |
-| [#12346](url) | Update dependencies | `Area-Build` | Medium | Body mentions NuGet packages |
-```
-
-Sort by confidence (low first) so human reviews uncertain ones first.
-
-After writing `prs_label_review.md`, **generate `prs_to_label.csv`, apply labels, and re-run collection** so the CSV/labels stay in sync:
-
-```powershell
-# Generate CSV from suggestions (agent)
-# Apply labels

-    -StartCommit '{{PreviousReleaseTag}}' -Branch 'stable' `
-    -OutputDir 'Generated Files/ReleaseNotes'
-```
-
-## 2.3 Human label low-confidence PRs
-
-Ask the human to label **low-confidence** PRs directly (in GitHub). Skip any they decide not to label.
-
-## 2.4 Recheck labels, delete Unlabeled.csv, and re-collect
-
-Recheck that all PRs now have labels. Delete `Unlabeled.csv` (if present), then re-run the collection script to update `sorted_prs.csv`:
-
-```powershell
-# Remove stale unlabeled output if it exists
-Remove-Item 'Generated Files/ReleaseNotes/Unlabeled.csv' -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue

-- 3.1 Request Copilot Reviews (Agent Mode)

-
-## 3.1 Request Copilot Reviews (Agent Mode)
-
-Use MCP tools to request Copilot reviews for all PRs in `Generated Files/ReleaseNotes/sorted_prs.csv`:
-
-- Use `mcp_github_request_copilot_review` for each PR ID
-- Do NOT generate or run scripts for this step
-
----
-
-## 3.2 Refresh PR Data
-
-Re-run the collection script to capture Copilot review summaries into the `CopilotSummary` column:
-
-```powershell
-pwsh ./.github/skills/release-note-generation/scripts/dump-prs-since-commit.ps1 `
-    -StartCommit '{{PreviousReleaseTag}}' -Branch 'stable' `

-# Step 4: Summaries and Final Release Notes
-
-## 4.0 To-do
-- 4.1 Generate Summary Markdown (Agent Mode)
-- 4.2 Produce Final Release Notes File
-
-## 4.1 Generate Summary Markdown (Agent Mode)
-
-For each CSV in `Generated Files/ReleaseNotes/grouped_csv/`, create a markdown file in `Generated Files/ReleaseNotes/grouped_md/`.
-
-⚠️ **IMPORTANT:** Generate **ALL** markdown files first. Do NOT pause between files or ask for feedback during generation. Complete the entire batch, then human reviews afterwards.
-
-### Structure per file
-
-**1. Bullet list** - one concise, user-facing line per PR:
-- Use the “Verb-ed + Scenario + Impact” sentence structure—make readers think, “That’s exactly what I need” or “Yes, that’s an awesome fix.”; The "impact" can be end-user focused (written to convey user excitement) or technical (performance/stability) when user-facing impact is minimal.
-- If nothing special on impact or unclear impact, mark as needing human summary
-- Source from Title, Body, and CopilotSummary (prefer CopilotSummary when available)
-- If the column `NeedThanks` in CSV is `True`, append: `Thanks [@Author](https://github.com/Author)!`
-- Do NOT include PR numbers in bullet lines
-- Do NOT mention “security” or “privacy” issues, since these are not known and could be leveraged by attackers in earlier versions. Instead, describe the user-facing scenario, usage, or impact.
-- If confidence < 70%, write: `Human Summary Needed: <PR full link>`
-
-**See [SampleOutput.md](./SampleOutput.md) for examples of well-written bullet summaries.**
-
-**2. Three-column table** (same PR order):
-- Column 1: Concise summary (same as bullet)
-- Column 2: PR link `[#ID](URL)`
-- Column 3: Confidence level (High/Medium/Low)
-
-### Review Process (AFTER all files generated)
-
-- Human reviews each `grouped_md/*.md` file and requests rewrites as needed
-- Human may say "rewrite Product-X" or "combine these bullets"—apply changes to that specific file
-- Do NOT interrupt generation to ask for feedback
-
----
-
-## 4.2 Produce Final Release Notes File
-
-Once all `grouped_md/*.md` files are reviewed and approved, consolidate into a single release notes file.
-
-**Output:** `Generated Files/ReleaseNotes/v{{ReleaseVersion}}-release-notes.md`
-
-### Structure
-
-**1. Highlights section** (top):
-- 8-12 bullets covering the most user-visible features and impactful fixes
-- Pattern: `**Module**: brief description`
-- Avoid internal refactors; focus on what users will notice
-
-**2. Module sections** (alphabetical order):
-- One section per product (Advanced Paste, Awake, Command Palette, etc.)
-- Migrate bullet summaries from the approved `grouped_md/Product-*.md` files
-- One section 'Development' for all the rest summaries from the approved `grouped_md/Area-*.md` files
-- Re-review E2E, group release improvements by section, and move the most important items to the top of each section.
-Some items in the Development section may overlap and should be moved to the Module section where more applicable.
-
-### Example Final Structure
-
-```markdown
-# PowerToys v{{ReleaseVersion}} Release Notes
-
-## Highlights

-<#
-.SYNOPSIS
-    Collect existing PR milestones or (optionally) assign/apply a milestone to missing PRs in one script.
-
-.DESCRIPTION
-    This unified script merges the behaviors of the previous add-milestone-column (collector) and
-    set-milestones-missing (remote updater) scripts.
-
-    Modes (controlled by switches):
-      1. Collect (default)  – For each PR Id in the input CSV, queries GitHub for the current milestone and
-                              outputs a two-column CSV (Id,Milestone) leaving blanks where none are set.
-      2. LocalAssign        – Same as Collect, but for rows that end up blank assigns the value of -DefaultMilestone
-                              in memory (does NOT touch GitHub). Useful for quickly preparing a fully populated CSV.
-      3. ApplyMissing       – After determining which PRs have no milestone, call GitHub API to set their milestone
-                              to -DefaultMilestone. Requires milestone to already exist (open). Network + write.
-
-    You can combine LocalAssign and ApplyMissing: the remote update uses the existing live state; LocalAssign only
-    affects the output CSV/pipeline objects.
-
-.PARAMETER InputCsv
-    Source CSV with at least an Id column. Default: sorted_prs.csv
-
-.PARAMETER OutputCsv
-    Destination CSV for collected (and optionally locally assigned) milestones. Default: prs_with_milestone.csv
-
-.PARAMETER Repo
-    GitHub repository (owner/name). Default: microsoft/PowerToys
-
-.PARAMETER DefaultMilestone
-    Milestone title used when -LocalAssign or -ApplyMissing is specified. Default: 'PowerToys 0.97'
-
-.PARAMETER Offline
-    Skip ALL GitHub lookups / updates. Implies Collect-only with all Milestone cells blank (unless LocalAssign).
-
-.PARAMETER LocalAssign
-    Populate empty Milestone cells in the output with -DefaultMilestone (does not modify GitHub).
-
-.PARAMETER ApplyMissing
-    For PRs which currently have no milestone (live on GitHub), set them to -DefaultMilestone via Issues API.
-
-.PARAMETER WhatIf
-    Dry run for ApplyMissing: show intended remote changes without performing PATCH requests.

-<#
-.SYNOPSIS
-    Produce an incremental PR CSV containing rows present in a newer full export but absent from a baseline export.
-
-.DESCRIPTION
-    Compares two previously generated sorted PR CSV files (same schema). Any row whose key column value
-    (defaults to 'Number') does not exist in the baseline file is emitted to a new incremental CSV, preserving
-    the original column order. If no new rows are found, an empty CSV (with headers when determinable) is written.
-
-.PARAMETER BaseCsv
-    Path to the baseline (earlier) PR CSV.
-
-.PARAMETER AllCsv
-    Path to the newer full PR CSV containing superset (or equal set) of rows.
-
-.PARAMETER OutCsv
-    Path to write the incremental CSV containing only new rows.
-
-.PARAMETER Key
-    Column name used as unique identifier (defaults to 'Number'). Must exist in both CSVs.
-
-.EXAMPLE
-    pwsh ./diff_prs.ps1 -BaseCsv sorted_prs_prev.csv -AllCsv sorted_prs.csv -OutCsv sorted_prs_incremental.csv
-
-.NOTES
-    Requires: PowerShell 7+, both CSVs with identical column schemas.
-    Exit code 0 on success (even if zero incremental rows). Throws on missing files.

-.SYNOPSIS
-    Export merged PR metadata between two commits (exclusive start, inclusive end) to JSON and CSV.
-
-.DESCRIPTION
-    Identifies merge/squash commits reachable from EndCommit but not StartCommit, extracts PR numbers,
-    queries GitHub for metadata plus (optionally) Copilot review/comment summaries, filters labels, then
-    emits a JSON artifact and a sorted CSV (first label alphabetical).
-
-.PARAMETER StartCommit
-    Exclusive starting commit (SHA, tag, or ref). Commits AFTER this one are considered.
-
-.PARAMETER EndCommit
-    Inclusive ending commit (SHA, tag, or ref). If not provided, uses origin/<Branch> when Branch is set; otherwise uses HEAD.
-
-.PARAMETER Repo
-    GitHub repository (owner/name). Default: microsoft/PowerToys.
-
-.PARAMETER OutputCsv
-    Destination CSV path. Default: sorted_prs.csv.
-
-.PARAMETER OutputJson
-    Destination JSON path containing raw PR objects. Default: milestone_prs.json.

-.SYNOPSIS
-    Dump merged PR information whose merge commits are reachable from EndCommit but not from StartCommit.
-.DESCRIPTION
-    Uses git rev-list to compute commits in the (StartCommit, EndCommit] range, extracts PR numbers from merge commit messages,
-    queries GitHub (gh CLI) for details, then outputs a CSV.
-
-    PR merge commit messages in PowerToys generally contain patterns like:

-.NOTES
-    Requires: gh CLI authenticated; git available in working directory (must be inside PowerToys repo clone).
-    CopilotSummary behavior:
-      - Attempts to locate the latest GitHub Copilot authored review (preferred).
-      - If no review is found, lazily fetches PR comments to look for a Copilot-authored comment.
-      - Normalizes whitespace and strips newlines. Empty when no Copilot activity detected.
-      - Run with -Verbose to see whether the summary came from a 'review' or 'comment' source.

-<#
-.SYNOPSIS
-    Find a commit on a branch that has the same subject line as a reference commit.
-
-.DESCRIPTION
-    Given a commit SHA (often from a release tag) and a branch name, this script
-    resolves the reference commit's subject, then searches the branch history for
-    commits with the exact same subject line. Useful when the release tag commit
-    is not reachable from your current branch history.
-
-.PARAMETER Commit
-    The reference commit SHA or ref (e.g., v0.96.1 or a full SHA).
-
-.PARAMETER Branch
-    The branch to search (e.g., stable or main). Defaults to stable.
-
-.PARAMETER RepoPath
-    Path to the local repo. Defaults to current directory.
-
-.EXAMPLE
-    pwsh ./find-commit-by-title.ps1 -Commit b62f6421845f7e5c92b8186868d98f46720db442 -Branch stable

-<#
-.SYNOPSIS
-    Group PR rows by their Labels column and emit per-label CSV files.
-
-.DESCRIPTION
-    Reads a milestone PR CSV (usually produced by dump-prs-information / dump-prs-since-commit scripts),
-    splits rows by label list, normalizes/sorts individual labels, and writes one CSV per unique label combination.
-    Each output preserves the original row ordering within that subset and column order from the source.
-
-.PARAMETER CsvPath
-    Input CSV containing PR rows with a 'Labels' column (comma-separated list).
-
-.PARAMETER OutDir
-    Output directory to place grouped CSVs (created if missing). Default: 'grouped_csv'.
-
-.NOTES
-    Label combinations are joined using ' | ' when multiple labels present. Filenames are sanitized (invalid characters,
-    whitespace collapsed) and truncated to <= 120 characters.
