Quick Reference

Claude Code	GitHub Copilot	Location
SKILL.md	SKILL.md	`.claude/skills/` + `.github/skills/`
commands/*.md	prompts/*.prompt.md	`.claude/commands/` + `.github/prompts/`
agents/*.md	agents/*.md	`.github/agents/` (shared)
workflows/*.md	-	`.claude/workflows/`

Sync Process

Step 1: Understand Current Setup

Read these files to understand current configuration:

.claude/workflows/orchestration-protocol.md
.claude/workflows/primary-workflow.md
.github/copilot-instructions.md
.github/AGENTS.md
CLAUDE.md

Step 2: Research Latest Features

Search web for:

"GitHub Copilot features setup 2026"
"GitHub Copilot custom instructions agents skills prompts"
"GitHub Copilot agent mode workspace context"

See references/copilot-features.md for feature catalog.

Step 3: Identify Sync Opportunities

Compare capabilities and identify gaps:

Skills missing in one platform
Inconsistent prompt/instruction behavior
Agent definitions that differ

Step 4: Implement Changes

For each change:

Skills: Create in both
```
.claude/skills/
```
and
```
.github/skills/
```
Prompts: Create in both
```
.claude/commands/
```
and
```
.github/prompts/
```

Instructions: Update both

CLAUDE.md

and

.github/copilot-instructions.md

Agents: Update
```
.github/agents/
```
(shared by both)

Compatibility Notes

Copilot reads
```
.claude/skills/
```
automatically (backward compatibility)
Both read
```
.github/prompts/*.prompt.md
```
Both read
```
.github/agents/*.md
```
Both read
```
AGENTS.md
```
in root or
```
.github/
```
Both support path-based instruction files via
