Same command for any agent — swap --agent for claude-code, codex, cursor.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.

What does the copilot-instructions-blueprint-generator skill do?
Technology-agnostic blueprint generator for creating comprehensive copilot-instructions.md files that guide GitHub Copilot to produce code consistent with project standards, architecture patterns, and exact technology versions by analyzing existing codebase patterns and avoiding assumptions.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add github/awesome-copilot --skill copilot-instructions-blueprint-generator --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From github/awesome-copilot, a repository with 37,432 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
