Copilot AI commented Feb 12, 2026

The repository's Copilot instruction files were missing contribution workflow documentation, which helps AI coding agents understand the project's PR and issue processes.

Changes

Added Section 10 "Contributing Guidelines" to .github/copilot-instructions.md covering:

  • Issue Reporting: Requirements for bug reports and feature requests (environment details, reproduction steps, use case explanations)
  • Pull Request Process: 7-step workflow from fork to merge, including local testing requirements (pytest, ruff check, mypy)
  • Development Workflow: Branch naming conventions (feature/, fix/, docs/), commit message style (present tense), testing and documentation requirements
  • Release Process: Semantic versioning, automated PyPI releases via GitHub Actions

Context

The existing instruction files (.github/copilot-instructions.md, AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md) were already comprehensive with project architecture, code style, testing guidelines, and backend-specific documentation. This addition completes the best practices coverage by documenting the contribution lifecycle.
