Additional Notes

Added sync-agent SKILL.md , this is a custom skill for GitHub Copilot that scans your repo for other agent files/directories (such as Claude.MD/.claude, Gemini.MD/.Gemini, etc), and then replicates the GitHub Copilot files contents to in the respective agents formatting. This allows you to use GitHub Copilot as a source of truth for agentic configurations, and still be able to use them across other agents.

Pull request overview

This PR re-adds the sync-agents skill that was originally merged in PR #758 but subsequently disappeared from the repository. The skill provides comprehensive instructions for synchronizing GitHub Copilot configurations (instructions, custom agents, and skills) to 12 other AI coding agent ecosystems including Claude Code, Gemini CLI, Cursor, Windsurf, and others. The skill detects which agents are already configured in a repository and only syncs to those, avoiding the creation of unnecessary files.

Changes:

  • Re-adds the skills/sync-agents/SKILL.md file with detailed synchronization instructions for 12 agent ecosystems
  • Updates docs/README.skills.md to include the sync-agents entry in the skills index table

it seems switching from staged to main changed the files being changed from 2 to 187 which is WAY TO MANY, switching back to main as previous commits have been done.

You need to branch from staged not main as the main branch contains a bunch of "generated" files.

If you branch off the latest staged it will have all the appropriate git ignores in place, and there's also a npm script to clean up the plugins folder if really needed.

PR's against main will not be merged.
