sync-copilot-workflows

[AI & Tools] Sync workflow catalog from workflows.json to GitHub Copilot instructions. Run after adding/removing/modifying workflows to keep copilot-instructions.md up to date. Copilot has no hooks, so this manual sync replaces the auto-injection that Claude Code gets from workflow-router.cjs.

SKILL.md

Be skeptical. Apply critical thinking, sequential thinking. Every claim needs traced proof, confidence percentages (Idea should be more than 80%).

Sync Copilot Workflows

Generate and update the workflow catalog in .github/copilot-instructions.md from the source of truth .claude/workflows.json.


When to Use

  • After adding, removing, or modifying workflows in .claude/workflows.json
  • After running /ai-dev-tools-sync to ensure workflow parity
  • When copilot workflow catalog is stale or drifted

NOT for: Claude Code workflow issues (Claude gets auto-injected catalog via workflow-router.cjs hook).


What To Do

  1. Run the sync script:
bash
node .claude/scripts/sync-copilot-workflows.cjs
  1. Verify the output shows the correct workflow count and "Updated" message
  2. Optionally preview first with --dry-run:
bash
node .claude/scripts/sync-copilot-workflows.cjs --dry-run

How It Works

  • Source of truth: .claude/workflows.json (32 workflows, keyword matching, sequences)
  • Target: .github/copilot-instructions.md section ## Workflow Catalog
  • Script: .claude/scripts/sync-copilot-workflows.cjs
  • The script generates a keyword lookup table, full workflow details, handoff table, and execution protocol
  • The generated section has <!-- AUTO-GENERATED --> markers to prevent manual edits

Why This Exists

Claude Code has workflow-router.cjs hook that auto-injects the workflow catalog on every prompt. GitHub Copilot has no hook system, so the catalog must be statically embedded in copilot-instructions.md. This skill bridges that gap with a one-command sync.


IMPORTANT Task Planning Notes (MUST FOLLOW)

  • Always plan and break work into many small todo tasks
  • Always add a final review todo task to verify work quality and identify fixes/enhancements
