agents and skills are specified as relative paths ("./agents/...", "./skills/..."), but there are no agents/ or skills/ directories under .github/plugin/. If the plugin loader resolves paths relative to the manifest location, these references will be broken. Consider using paths that clearly resolve (e.g., repo-root paths like agents/.../skills/... or correct relative paths from .github/plugin/).

Use when the user asks about their daily Copilot activity, what Copilot helped with today, or wants a digest of the day's work." | ||

This agent definition duplicates the existing .github/agents/whatidid.agent.md (same front-matter and instructions). Keeping two copies is likely to drift over time; consider having a single canonical agent file and referencing it from the plugin manifest (or generating one from the other) to avoid inconsistencies.

| # What I Did (Copilot) — Impact Report Generator | ||
|
|
||
| Generate a professional impact report from your GitHub Copilot session logs. Shows what you accomplished, quantifies the human-equivalent effort, and presents it in a branded HTML report you can share with your manager or team. | ||
|
|
||
| ## What It Does | ||
|
|
||
| - **Harvests** session data from `~/.copilot/session-state/` (local, private) | ||
| - **Analyses** each day's work using an AI prompt calibrated against peer-reviewed research | ||
| - **Generates** a self-contained HTML report with: | ||
| - Goals accomplished with task-level detail | ||
| - Human effort equivalent (research-grounded estimation) | ||
| - Skills augmented and collaboration patterns | ||
| - Estimation evidence with transparent methodology | ||
| - **Emails** the report via Outlook (optional) | ||
|
|
||
| ## Quick Start | ||
|
|
||
| ```bash | ||
| # Clone the repo | ||
| git clone https://github.com/microsoft/What-I-Did-Copilot.git | ||
| cd What-I-Did-Copilot | ||
|
|
||
| # Generate a 7-day report | ||
| python whatidid.py --date 7D | ||
|
|
||
| # Generate and email a 30-day report | ||
| python whatidid.py --date 30D --email | ||
| ``` | ||
|
|
||
| ## Requirements | ||
|
|
||
| - Python 3.10+ | ||
| - GitHub CLI (`gh auth login`) for AI analysis | ||
| - Active Copilot CLI or VS Code agent sessions | ||
|
|
||
| ## Privacy | ||
|
|
||
| Your data stays on your machine. No telemetry, no cloud uploads. The AI analysis uses your own GitHub Models API token. No one has access to your report unless you share it. | ||
|
|
||
| ## Research Basis | ||
|
|
||
| Effort estimates are grounded in 13 peer-reviewed sources including Alaswad et al. 2026, Cambon et al. 2023 (Microsoft Research), and the SPACE framework. See [full methodology](https://github.com/microsoft/What-I-Did-Copilot/blob/main/docs/effort-estimation-methodology.md). |

This skill document is a duplicate of the repo-root SKILL.md (identical content). Maintaining both increases the chance they diverge; consider keeping only the skills/whatidid/SKILL.md version (and updating references) or otherwise ensuring a single source of truth.

| # What I Did (Copilot) | |
| This is the canonical skill entry for the What-I-Did-Copilot report generator. | |
| Use this skill to turn local GitHub Copilot session logs into a branded HTML impact report that summarizes: | |
| - goals delivered | |
| - human-effort-equivalent estimates | |
| - skills augmented | |
| - collaboration patterns | |
| - estimation evidence grounded in the project's research methodology | |
| The tool works with Copilot CLI and VS Code agent sessions and keeps data local-first. | |
| For full setup, workflow, and methodology details, use the repository documentation and project docs rather than duplicating the same content here. |
