SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Helps maintain and expand a repository's collection of GitHub Copilot Custom Agents by identifying useful agents from the awesome-copilot catalog that are missing, duplicated, or outdated in the current repository, reducing manual discovery and drift.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Remote catalog discovery: Fetches the awesome-copilot agents index and individual agent files to build a candidate list of useful custom agents.
  • Local inventory and comparison: Scans .github/agents/ for existing *.agent.md files, reads front matter, and compares full file contents to detect up-to-date, outdated, and missing agents.
  • Actionable recommendations: Produces a structured table with links, descriptions, similarity/duplication checks, and update recommendations, enabling informed decisions for onboarding or sync operations.
  • Safe update flow: Prepares downloads and replacements but explicitly defers any installation or updates until the user authorizes them.

FAQPage Schema
How do I find missing or outdated GitHub Copilot agents in my repository?

To find missing or outdated GitHub Copilot agents, you scan your `.github/agents/` directory and compare local `*.agent.md` files against a remote catalog. This process identifies duplicated, outdated, or missing custom agents to keep your repository synchronized.

What is GitHub Copilot custom agent synchronization?

GitHub Copilot custom agent synchronization is the process of comparing local `.github/agents/` files against an awesome-copilot remote index. It detects version drift and missing files, producing structured recommendations to update or onboard new agents safely.

How do I compare local front matter with remote GitHub Copilot agent files?

You compare local front matter with remote GitHub Copilot agent files by parsing local `*.agent.md` contents and fetching raw agent files from the awesome-copilot repository. This version comparison detects duplicates and flags outdated local agents for updates.

Does auditing GitHub Copilot agents automatically install missing files?

Auditing GitHub Copilot agents does not automatically install missing files. It prepares a structured table of suggestions and defers all downloads, replacements, and updates until you explicitly authorize the installation or sync operations.

Can I use a custom agent catalog to detect duplicates in .github/agents?

You can use a remote custom agent catalog to detect duplicates in `.github/agents/` by fetching the awesome-copilot index and performing similarity checks. It compares full file contents to identify overlapping or duplicated agent definitions.
