This PR adds a comprehensive
.github/copilot-instructions.mdfile that provides GitHub Copilot coding agents with detailed instructions on how to work effectively with the IdentityManager.LogInsights codebase.What's Included
The instructions cover all essential aspects for working with this .NET 8 Windows Forms application:
Platform & Build Requirements:
dotnet build) and running the applicationProject Architecture:
Development Guidelines:
Key Components Documentation:
The instructions use an imperative tone throughout ("Run this command", "Do not do this") and emphasize the critical requirement for manual testing since no automated test infrastructure exists. They also include specific timeout values and cancellation warnings for build operations that may take several minutes.
This will enable GitHub Copilot agents to work efficiently with the codebase while understanding the platform constraints and validation requirements specific to this Windows Forms log analysis application.
Fixes #177.
✨ Let Copilot coding agent set things up for you — coding agent works faster and does higher quality work when set up for your repo.
