Copilot Customization Standards	Use when authoring or editing shared Copilot prompts, instructions, agents, skills, hooks, or overlay templates. Covers naming, portability, and frontmatter expectations.	resources/prompts/**/*.prompt.md,resources/instructions/**/*.instructions.md,resources/agents/**/*.agent.md,resources/skills/**/SKILL.md,templates/repo-overlay/.github/instructions/**/*.instructions.md,templates/repo-overlay/.github/agents/**/*.agent.md

• Prefer skills for portable workflows and prompts for VS Code-only adapters.
• Keep descriptions discovery-oriented: say what the resource does and when to use it.
• Do not duplicate workflow logic across prompts and skills without a reason.
• Keep shared resources neutral and reusable rather than tied to one machine.
• Treat repository overlays as templates, not as the authoritative shared copy.
