πŸ€– Ask Copilot About Prompt Registry

Prompt Registry ships with a built-in Copilot skill that lets you ask GitHub Copilot questions about the extension directly in chat. No extra setup is required β€” the skill is available as soon as the extension is installed.

What you can ask:

  • Users β€” "How do I add a local source?", "What scopes are available?", "Why isn't my hub showing?"
  • Authors β€” "How do I create a collection?", "What fields are required in a manifest?", "How do I publish to a hub?"

The skill answers from the extension's own documentation, so responses are always grounded in the actual behavior of your installed version.

Note: The skill covers user and author topics only. For contributor questions (architecture, testing, internals), consult the Contributor Guide directly.

Seeing incorrect or unexpected answers? Please open an issue describing the question you asked and the response you received, or reach out to one of the project contributors directly.
