path-specific-instructions

What problem does it solve?

This Skill allows you to apply Copilot instructions to specific file types or directories within your repository, ensuring that Copilot's suggestions are contextually relevant and don't interfere with unrelated code.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Path-Specific Rules: Define instructions that only trigger for files matching glob patterns (e.g., *.ts, src/components/**).
• Organized Instructions: Keep your global copilot-instructions.md clean by moving specialized rules to dedicated files.
• Use Case: You can create a testing.instructions.md file that applies only to *.test.ts files, enforcing specific testing standards for your test suite without affecting your application code.

Quick Start

Use the path-specific-instructions skill to create a new instructions file for all TypeScript files in the src directory.
