Add comprehensive .github/copilot-instructions.md with validated build commands and timing

Open Copilot opened this issue 6 months ago • 4 comments

This PR adds a comprehensive .github/copilot-instructions.md file that provides GitHub Copilot coding agents with detailed instructions for working effectively in the pytorch/test-infra repository.

What's Included

The instructions cover all major components of the repository with validated commands and measured timing:

TorchCI Web Application (Next.js)

  • Complete setup workflow: yarn install --frozen-lockfile (82s) → yarn build (107s) → yarn test (10s)
  • Development server: yarn dev starts in 1.4 seconds
  • All build commands tested and timing measured

Terraform AWS GitHub Runner Infrastructure

  • Lambda build workflow: yarn install (24s) → yarn commit-check (60s)
  • Individual commands for testing, linting, and building
  • TypeScript compilation with ncc bundling

Python Tools and Utilities

  • Setup procedures for various Python components in /tools and /aws/lambda
  • pytest testing workflows where applicable
  • Dependency installation procedures

Repository-wide Linting

  • Complete lintrunner setup: pip3 install lintrunner==0.12.5 boto3-stubs==1.34.51lintrunner init
  • Multi-language linting with 15+ specialized linters
  • Known issues and workarounds for network-restricted environments

Key Features

  • All commands validated: Every command in the instructions has been tested to ensure it works
  • Measured timing with appropriate timeouts: Build times measured and documented with "NEVER CANCEL" warnings
  • Network limitation handling: Documents expected failures (pip timeouts, S3 download issues) in restricted environments
  • Complete validation scenarios: Step-by-step workflows for testing changes across all components
  • Imperative tone: Clear "do this" instructions as requested in the issue

Example Usage

After making changes to TorchCI:

cd torchci
yarn install --frozen-lockfile  # 82s - NEVER CANCEL
yarn lint && yarn tsc && yarn build && yarn test
yarn dev  # Verify application starts correctly

The instructions ensure developers can quickly bootstrap the repository and validate their changes using reliable, pre-tested commands.

Fixes #7028.
