Start commanding.**\nA curated collection of GitHub Copilot agents and prompt templates that turn your editor into a GitHub command center.\n\n[Getting Started](Documentation/GETTING-STARTED.md) | [Full Guide](Documentation/GUIDE.md) | [Contributing](CONTRIBUTING.md) | [Setup](SETUP.md)\n\n\u003c/div\u003e\n\n---\n\n## What Is Agent Forge?\n\n**Agent Forge** is a collection of **5 specialized AI agents** and **28 prompt commands** that live inside VS Code's Copilot Chat. They interact with GitHub on your behalf — finding issues, reviewing code, tracking team progress, managing releases, and monitoring accessibility — all without leaving your editor.\n\nType a question in plain English. Get back organized, prioritized, actionable answers.\n\n## Capabilities\n\n| Capability | Description |\n|---|---|\n| **Morning Briefings** | Sweeps every repo you touch — issues, PRs, releases, CI, security alerts, community reactions — and builds a prioritized dashboard |\n| **Code Reviews** | Full diff analysis with risk assessment, before/after snapshots, CI results, and inline commenting |\n| **Issue Triage** | Priority scoring with community sentiment, release awareness, batch replies, and saved searches |\n| **Team Analytics** | Velocity trends, review turnaround, bottleneck detection, code hotspots, and workload balancing |\n| **Release Management** | Auto-categorized release notes, readiness checklists, and complete release workflows |\n| **Accessibility Tracking** | WCAG/ARIA cross-referenced change monitoring across any configured repos (VS Code by default) |\n| **Security Monitoring** | Dependabot alerts, security advisories, and dependency tracking across all repos |\n| **Full GitHub Interaction** | Comment, react, merge, close, label, assign, transfer -- without opening your browser |\n| **Cross-Repo by Default** | All agents search every repo you can access by default, with flexible per-repo configuration |\n\n## Agents\n\n| Agent | Invoke With | Description |\n|---|---|---|\n| **Daily Briefing** | `@daily-briefing` | Prioritized overview of everything happening across all repos |\n| **Issue Tracker** | `@issue-tracker` | Find, triage, reply to, and manage issues with smart search |\n| **PR Review** | `@pr-review` | Full code reviews with risk assessment, comments, and merge |\n| **Analytics** | `@analytics` | Team metrics, velocity, bottlenecks, and workload insights across all repos |\n| **Accessibility Tracker** | `@insiders-a11y-tracker` | Accessibility change tracking with WCAG cross-references across configured repos |\n\n## Quick Start\n\n```\n1. Open VS Code with GitHub Copilot installed\n2. Open this repo as a workspace folder\n3. Press Ctrl+Shift+I to open Copilot Chat\n4. Type: @daily-briefing morning briefing\n```\n\n\u003e **That's it.** No API keys. No CLI tools. No configuration required. If Copilot Chat works, the agents work.\n\nFor a complete walkthrough, see the [Getting Started Guide](Documentation/GETTING-STARTED.md).\n\n## Slash Commands (28)\n\nType `/` in Copilot Chat and pick from the full menu:\n\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eView all commands\u003c/strong\u003e\u003c/summary\u003e\n\n| Command | Description |\n|---|---|\n| `/daily-briefing` | Generate your prioritized daily briefing |\n| `/my-issues` | Your open issues across all repos, sorted by priority |\n| `/my-prs` | Your PRs across all repos with review status and CI health |\n| `/review-pr` | Full code review with dual-format documents |\n| `/pr-report` | Save or update a PR review as workspace docs |\n| `/pr-comment` | Line-specific PR comments |\n| `/explain-code` | Understand lines, functions, or blocks in a PR |\n| `/merge-pr` | Merge with readiness checks and strategy selection |\n| `/pr-author-checklist` | Self-review before requesting reviews |\n| `/issue-reply` | Draft and post context-aware replies |\n| `/create-issue` | Create issues with smart templates |\n| `/manage-issue` | Edit, label, assign, close, transfer |\n| `/react` | Add reactions to issues and PRs |\n| `/triage` | Prioritized triage dashboard |\n| `/refine-issue` | Add acceptance criteria with community context |\n| `/address-comments` | Work through PR review comments systematically |\n| `/a11y-update` | Accessibility updates with WCAG cross-refs |\n| `/team-dashboard` | Team activity and bottleneck overview across all repos |\n| `/my-stats` | Your personal metrics across all repos with team comparison |\n| `/draft-release` | Auto-categorized release notes |\n| `/ci-status` | CI/CD health dashboard |\n| `/security-dashboard` | Dependabot alerts and security advisories |\n| `/release-prep` | Complete release preparation workflow |\n| `/sprint-review` | End-of-sprint summary with velocity metrics |\n| `/onboard-repo` | First-time repo scan and health check |\n| `/notifications` | Manage GitHub notifications from the editor |\n| `/manage-branches` | Branch listing, cleanup, and comparison |\n| `/project-status` | GitHub Projects overview with column metrics |\n\n\u003c/details\u003e\n\n## Repository Structure\n\n```\nagent-forge/\n├── .github/\n│   ├── agents/                    # The 5 AI agents + shared config\n│   │   ├── daily-briefing.agent.md\n│   │   ├── issue-tracker.agent.md\n│   │   ├── pr-review.agent.md\n│   │   ├── analytics.agent.md\n│   │   ├── insiders-a11y-tracker.agent.md\n│   │   ├── shared-instructions.md\n│   │   ├── code-review-standards.md\n│   │   └── preferences.example.md  # Copy to preferences.md and customize\n│   ├── prompts/                   # 28 slash command templates\n│   ├── ISSUE_TEMPLATE/            # Issue templates for contributions\n│   └── pull_request_template.md   # PR template\n├── Documentation/\n│   ├── GETTING-STARTED.md         # Your first hour with the agents\n│   ├── GETTING-STARTED.html\n│   ├── GUIDE.md                   # The complete reference guide\n│   └── guide.html\n├── ai-instructions/               # Integration guides for AI platforms\n│   ├── copilot-integration.md\n│   ├── claude-instructions.md\n│   └── openai-integration.md\n├── CONTRIBUTING.md                # How to contribute (PR workflow)\n├── SETUP.md                       # Setup and configuration\n├── SECURITY.md                    # Security policy\n├── LICENSE                        # MIT License\n├── CODEOWNERS                     # Code ownership rules\n└── README.md\n```\n\n## Why Agent Forge?\n\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd width=\"50%\"\u003e\n\n### Before\n- Open browser, check notifications\n- Click into issue, read comments\n- Switch to PR tab, scan the diff\n- Open CI results in another tab\n- Check Dependabot in yet another tab\n- Repeat for every repo you touch\n\n\u003c/td\u003e\n\u003ctd width=\"50%\"\u003e\n\n### After\n- `@daily-briefing morning briefing`\n- Everything in one document\n- Prioritized and actionable\n- Reply, review, merge — from chat\n- Zero browser tabs required\n\n\u003c/td\u003e\n\u003c/tr\u003e\n\u003c/table\u003e\n\n## Accessibility\n\nEvery document the agents generate comes in **dual format** -- Markdown for editing in VS Code and HTML optimized for screen readers with:\n\n- Skip links and ARIA landmarks\n- Proper heading hierarchy (never skipped)\n- Accessible tables with captions and scoped headers\n- Descriptive link text (never bare URLs)\n- Status communicated through text, not just color\n- `prefers-color-scheme` and `prefers-reduced-motion` support\n- WCAG AA contrast compliance\n\n## Cross-Platform AI Support\n\nAgent Forge is built for GitHub Copilot, but the agents and prompts can be adapted for other AI platforms.
