  💡 A tip for GitHub Copilot: It works best when you treat it less like a search engine and more like a new teammate.It can likely figure out what you are doing, but it doesn't know why you do it that way—unless you tell it.That's why custom instructions are so important. They document the institutional knowledge that usually lives in your team's heads:• The stack: specific versions and frameworks• The rules: linter preferences and "unwritten" style guides• The goal: what you are actually trying to buildHere are 5 tips to help you write better instructions so you can spend less time correcting Copilot and more time building. 🚀Get the guide. ⬇️https://lnkd.in/g-TkXcSZ

  Agentic security is a conflict: You are handling non-deterministic outputs in a deterministic execution environment.To balance capability with safety in GitHub Copilot, we enforce three architectural principles:• Maximize interpretability• Minimize autonomy (Principle of Least Privilege)• Reduce anomalous behaviorTake a deep dive into our threat model for hosted agents. ⬇️https://lnkd.in/g6iUT_bj
