Copilot Instructions
# GitHub Copilot Instructions
This repository is a Just the Docs Jekyll site for a practical textbook on GenAI-assisted coding and research workflows.
## Main Rules
- Preserve the current content layout: `chapters/`, `docs/`, `docs/templates/`, and `scripts/`.
- Keep `README.md` as the GitHub repository overview and `index.md` as the documentation site homepage.
- Use Just the Docs front matter on rendered pages: `layout`, `title`, `parent` where needed, and `nav_order`.
- Use `nav_exclude: true` for raw template pages that should not appear in the sidebar.
- Use `has_toc: false` on landing pages when the automatic child-page list duplicates curated links.
- Keep prompt bodies in fenced `markdown` code blocks when the page is meant to be copied into an LLM.
- Add Mermaid diagrams only when they clarify a workflow or decision. Include `accTitle` and `accDescr`.
- Choose Mermaid direction by readability: `TB` for long or branching diagrams, `LR` for short linear paths.
