Summary
Restructure this repository from a fork of microsoft/skills-for-copilot-studio into a standalone component that contributes to the HVE Core extension (ise-hve-essentials.hve-core), rather than being published as an independent extension under the coatsy publisher.
Sub-tasks
Background
Current architecture
- This repo is a fork of
microsoft/skills-for-copilot-studio.
- The extension is published as
coatsy.copilot-studio-skills with a companion extension pack coatsy.copilot-studio-development-bundle.
- Versioning is synchronized with upstream releases via
upstream-version.json, enforced by validate-versions.yml and check-upstream-release.yml.
- The build pipeline (
extension/test-local.sh) stages artifacts from the fork, transforms Claude Code-specific frontmatter to VS Code format, discovers agents/skills dynamically, generates package.json, and packages a .vsix.
- Publishing is triggered by GitHub Releases and uses a
VSCE_PAT secret to push to the VS Code Marketplace under the coatsy publisher.
Target architecture (HVE Core component)
- HVE Core (
ise-hve-essentials.hve-core, v3.3.101) is a pre-built VS Code extension published by ise-hve-essentials (Microsoft ISE).
- It uses
contributes.chatAgents, contributes.chatSkills, contributes.chatPrompts, and contributes.chatInstructions to register its 18 agents, 15+ prompts, 7 instruction files, and 1 skill.
- Content lives under
.github/ (agents, skills, instructions, prompts) and is packaged directly — no build-time transformation step.
