--- # GitHub Copilot CLI agent definition # File extension MUST be .agent.md — a plain .md file is not picked up by Copilot. # Fill in all FILL IN: placeholders. Remove or uncomment optional fields as needed. name: AGENT_NAME # Required. Kebab-case identifier. Home-directory version wins on name collision. description: FILL IN: Action-first description of what this agent does and when to invoke it. # Required. Used by the runtime for automatic agent selection — quality matters. # Start with a verb: "Reviews...", "Analyzes...", "Generates..." # Example: "Reviews pull request diffs for security issues." # tools: ["read", "search", "edit"] # Optional. Array of tool names. Omit = all available tools. [] = no tools. # Copilot tool aliases (use these, not Claude Code names): # execute — run shell commands (aliases: shell, Bash, powershell) # read — read file contents (aliases: Read, NotebookRead) # edit — modify files (aliases: Edit, MultiEdit, Write, NotebookEdit) # search — search files (aliases: Grep, Glob) # agent — invoke sub-agents (aliases: custom-agent, Task) # web — web search and fetch (aliases: WebSearch, WebFetch) # For MCP tools: "server-name/tool-name" or "server-name/*" # target: github-copilot # Optional. Which runtime loads this file. # vscode — VS Code Copilot only # github-copilot — Copilot CLI / cloud agents only # both (default) — loaded by both runtimes # user-invocable: true # Optional. Set false to hide from manual invocation (auto-select only). # disable-model-invocation: false # Optional. Set true to require explicit user invocation; prevents auto-selection. # model: claude-sonnet-4-5 # Optional. Model to run this agent on. # DO NOT include these Claude Code-only fields: # maxTurns, isolation, memory, permissionMode, effort, hooks, mcpServers --- FILL IN: System prompt body.

When invoked, FILL IN: primary action. ## Inputs FILL IN: What inputs does this agent expect? (files, context, parameters) ## Process FILL IN: Steps the agent takes. Be specific about ordering if it matters. ## Output FILL IN: What does the agent produce? Format, location, structure.
