PR Comment Identity
Purpose
Use this skill whenever Copilot posts a comment on a pull request review thread — whether responding to a review request, addressing a specific line comment, or replying in a general PR conversation thread.
Required attribution
Every PR review thread comment must begin with the following attribution block, on its own line, before any substantive content:
> 🤖 **This comment was written by GitHub Copilot.**
Rules
- Always prepend the attribution line as the very first line of the comment.
- Leave one blank line between the attribution line and the body of the comment.
- Do not add the attribution line to:
- Pull request titles or descriptions
- Commit messages
- Issue body text or issue comments
- Any content that is not a PR review thread comment
- Do not remove or reword the attribution in a follow-up edit to the same comment.
- Do not replace the attribution with a different phrasing such as "As an AI" or "I am Copilot" — use the canonical block above exactly.
Example
> 🤖 **This comment was written by GitHub Copilot.**
The `RecipeService.CreateAsync` method currently calls `_repository.InsertAsync` without first
deduplicating the ingredient list. Per the `set-like-write-dedupe` pattern, duplicates should be
collapsed at the service layer before the repository is called.
Suggested fix:
```csharp
var ingredients = [.. ViewModelMapper.Map(newRecipe.Ingredients).Distinct()];
```
