-GitHub Copilot Agent with Instruction Directories
-
-This sample demonstrates how to configure custom instruction directories with
-GitHubCopilotAgent. Instruction directories let the CLI load project-specific
-or team-shared instruction files that shape the agent's behavior beyond the
-default system message.
-
-Use cases:
-- Point the agent at a team-shared set of coding conventions.
-- Load project-specific guidelines from a local `.copilot/instructions/` folder.
-- Override or augment default instructions per session at runtime.
-
-Environment variables (optional):
-- GITHUB_COPILOT_CLI_PATH - Path to the Copilot CLI executable
-- GITHUB_COPILOT_MODEL - Model to use (e.g., "gpt-5", "claude-sonnet-4")
