This PR adds a comprehensive
.github/copilot-instructions.mdfile that provides GitHub Copilot coding agents with detailed instructions for working effectively in the AbstractMCMC.jl codebase.What's included
The instructions cover all essential workflows for developers working with this Julia MCMC interface package:
Setup and Build Commands:
julia --project=. -e "using Pkg; Pkg.instantiate()"(30-60s runtime)julia --project=. -e "using Pkg; Pkg.test()"(2min 50s runtime, 234 tests)docs/directoryValidation Scenarios:
Repository Structure Guide:
src/,test/, anddocs/directoriesinterface.jl,sample.jl,stepper.jl,transducer.jlDevelopment Best Practices:
Validation
Every command in the instructions has been tested and validated to work correctly. The instructions include:
This ensures that any developer following these instructions will have a smooth and efficient experience working with the AbstractMCMC.jl codebase.
Fixes #172.
