# Send Github Copilot Cli to your agent
Hand the extracted package to your coding agent with a concrete install brief instead of figuring it out manually.
## Fast path
- Download the package from Yavira.
- Extract it into a folder your agent can access.
- Paste one of the prompts below and point your agent at the extracted folder.
## Suggested prompts
### New install

```text
I downloaded a skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder and install it by following the included instructions. Tell me what you changed and call out any manual steps you could not complete.
```
### Upgrade existing

```text
I downloaded an updated skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder, compare it with my current installation, and upgrade it while preserving any custom configuration unless the package docs explicitly say otherwise. Summarize what changed and any follow-up checks I should run.
```

## Documentation

### Frontmatter Linting (Do This First)

YAML frontmatter is strict. A single extra space can break the skill.

Before committing or publishing:

# Basic sanity check (no output = good)
python - <<'PY'
import yaml,sys
with open('SKILL.md') as f:
    yaml.safe_load(f.read())
print('Frontmatter OK')
PY

Rules to remember:

No leading spaces before keys (name, description)
Use spaces, not tabs
Keep frontmatter minimal (only name and description)

### Mental Model

Treat Copilot CLI as a team of elite specialists coordinated by you:

One Copilot instance can act as frontend engineer
One as backend engineer
One as tester / QA
One as infrastructure or refactor specialist

Copilot is excellent at coding and architecture when given clear roles. You act as the CTO / conductor:

Define goals and constraints
Let Copilot instances propose solutions
Observe trade‑offs and conflicts
Escalate decisions or risks to yourself explicitly

### 1. Ask questions about a codebase

gh copilot explain "What does this service do?" --path src/

Use when orienting yourself or reloading context after a break.

### 2. Generate a focused change (most common)

gh copilot suggest "Add logging when translation fallback is used" --path services/translation

Best practice:

Phrase the request as a delta, not a feature
Always point it at a specific directory

### 3. Debug with constraints

gh copilot suggest "Why might this function return null under load?" --path src/choreo

Follow up manually by reading the code it points to.

### 4. Tests first, code second

gh copilot suggest "Write failing tests for punctuation correction on voice transcription" --path tests/

Then iterate toward the fix yourself.

### ✅ Good prompts (role-aware)

"As a backend engineer, draft a minimal fix for X"
"As a tester, add guards so Y never happens"
"As infra, refactor this to be safer, not faster"

### ❌ Bad prompts

"Implement feature X end-to-end"
"Refactor the whole service"
"Make this production-ready"

### Multi‑Copilot Orchestration Loop (Recommended)

Decompose (CTO)

State the goal and constraints
Split into FE / BE / QA / Infra concerns



Propose (Copilot roles)

gh copilot suggest "As a backend engineer, propose a minimal fix for mixed-language carryover" --path src/

gh copilot suggest "As a tester, write failing tests for mixed-language carryover" --path tests/

Cross‑check (Copilot vs Copilot)

Compare proposals
Look for disagreement or assumptions



Escalate (to you)

Surface trade‑offs
Highlight risk
Ask for decision



Finalize (with you)

Apply changes
Clean up naming
Merge intentionally

### When NOT to Use Copilot CLI

Copilot CLI should not be the final authority in situations where:

Product or organizational trade‑offs dominate over code correctness
Cross‑repo or cross‑team coordination is required
Security, privacy, or compliance decisions are involved
Ambiguous state machines where correctness depends on real‑world behavior

In these cases, Copilot may still propose options, but you must explicitly review and decide.

### Golden Rule

Copilot is a force multiplier, not a decision owner.

Use Copilot to:

Generate competing implementations
Surface assumptions
Stress‑test ideas from multiple angles

You own:

Final intent
Risk acceptance
Merge decisions

Copilot accelerates thinking — it does not replace judgment.
