# `.github/prompts/` — Prompt Library Starter Kit

Five **production-ready GitHub Copilot prompt files** you can drop into any repository today. Each one is the optimized, CLEAR-aligned version of a common task — the same rewrites we use as facilitator references in the workshop.

## What this is

These are **`.prompt.md` files** — GitHub Copilot's reusable prompt format. Drop them into any repo's `.github/prompts/` folder and Copilot Chat will surface them as **slash commands** (`/code-review`, `/pr-description`, etc.) right inside VS Code, Visual Studio, and the GitHub Copilot Chat web UI.

## What's included

| File | Slash command | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| `pr-description.prompt.md`        | `/pr-description`        | Clean, mergeable PR description from a diff |
| `code-review.prompt.md`           | `/code-review`           | Ranked review: 3 risks, 3 improvements, 3 tests |
| `incident-triage.prompt.md`       | `/incident-triage`       | Production-log triage as a runbook |
| `customer-email-summary.prompt.md`| `/customer-email-summary`| Decision-ready summary of a customer email |
| `commit-message.prompt.md`        | `/commit-message`        | Conventional Commits message from a diff |

when to use it

Community prompt sourced from the open-source GitHub repo msfttoler/insiders-optimization-workshop (MIT). A ".github/prompts/ — Prompt Library Starter Kit" style prompt — adapt the placeholders and specifics to your task. Imported as-is and not independently retested here, so check the output before relying on it.
