Decision brief

What it does—and where it fits

Before implementing any changes, analyze the codebase and create a context map.

Best for

    Not for

    • Tasks that require unconfirmed production actions or broad system permissions.
    • Environments where the pinned source and install steps cannot be inspected.

    Installation

    Inspect first. Install second.

    The source command is displayed only when detected. A safe inspection prompt is always available so your agent can explain every action before execution.

    Safe inspection promptEditorial

    Inspect the Agent Skill "context-map" from https://github.com/github/awesome-copilot/blob/9933dcad5be5caeb288cebcd370eeeb2fc2f1685/skills/context-map/SKILL.md at commit 9933dcad5be5caeb288cebcd370eeeb2fc2f1685. List every install step, command, network request, credential, file read/write, external action, and rollback step. Explain whether it fits my task. Do not install or execute anything until I approve.

    What the source asks the agent to do

    1. 01

      Instructions

      1. Search the codebase for files related to this task 2. Identify direct dependencies (imports/exports) 3. Find related tests 4. Look for similar patterns in existing code

      Task

      Review the “Task” section in the pinned source before continuing.

      Review and apply the “Task” source section.

    Static risk signals and limitations

    No configured static risk pattern was detected

    This is not proof of safety. Runtime behavior, indirect dependencies, and hidden external systems are outside the static scan.

    Context Map

    Before implementing any changes, analyze the codebase and create a context map.

    Task

    {{task_description}}

    Instructions

    1. Search the codebase for files related to this task
    2. Identify direct dependencies (imports/exports)
    3. Find related tests
    4. Look for similar patterns in existing code

    Output Format

    ## Context Map
    
    ### Files to Modify
    | File | Purpose | Changes Needed |
    |------|---------|----------------|
    | path/to/file | description | what changes |
    
    ### Dependencies (may need updates)
    | File | Relationship |
    |------|--------------|
    | path/to/dep | imports X from modified file |
    
    ### Test Files
    | Test | Coverage |
    |------|----------|
    | path/to/test | tests affected functionality |
    
    ### Reference Patterns

    |------|---------|
    | path/to/similar | example to follow |
    
    ### Risk Assessment
