* feat(website): rebuild site on Primer Brand design prototype

Replace the Astro + Starlight site with the Brand Engineering design
prototype, ported component-for-component onto plain Astro + React
islands. The prototype is treated as the authority on markup and
styling; dynamic data is injected into its components rather than the
components being reinterpreted.

Framework:
- Remove @astrojs/starlight entirely, along with its document shell,
  search, footer and language selector. BaseLayout.astro now owns the
  document head, CSP, social meta and analytics.
- Add @primer/react-brand and @astrojs/react. Alias the package to its
  ESM build in vite.resolve, since the default CJS entrypoint breaks
  named-export detection during SSR, and mark it noExternal so its
  stylesheet imports resolve.
- Promote pagefind to an explicit devDependency; it was previously
  pulled in transitively by Starlight.

Pages: home, the five catalogs, the five detail routes, contributors,
Playbook index and articles, and the cookbook are all rendered by
ported prototype components inside a shared PageShell.

Detail pages share a DetailChassis (hero, breadcrumbs, sticky TOC with
scroll-spy, prev/next) while keeping what makes each type distinct: a
file switcher over bundled skill assets, an included-items grid and
external provenance for plugins, and a hero-scale preview for
extensions.

i18n: resolve translated Playbook entries via Astro.currentLocale
inside the shared article route instead of separate [locale] routes.
The explicit routes collided with the i18n fallback routes, so
translated articles were being shadowed by their English originals and
900 nonsensical double-locale pages were emitted.

Search: TopNavSearch now queries the Pagefind index client-side in
addition to the static resource index, merging on href and degrading
to the static index in dev, where no index has been built.

Also delete the superseded vanilla-TS page renderers and Astro
partials, which the ported React components fully replace.

* fix(website): resolve accessibility violations in ported detail pages

Fixes the three axe violations surfaced by the a11y audit after the
Primer Brand redesign:

- aria-prohibited-attr: `aria-label` was set on roleless `div`s in
  InstructionDetail and PluginDetail. The "Applies to" list now uses
  list/listitem roles; plugin provenance uses a group role.
- scrollable-region-focusable: the install command `code` element
  overflows horizontally but was not keyboard reachable. Added
  tabIndex to all three render sites.
- color-contrast: the Playbook "New" label used the brand's
  success-fg on success-subtle, reaching only 4.09:1 in light mode.
  Stepped one down the same green ramp for 6.14:1. Scoped to light
  mode; dark mode already passed and its green-7 is near-black.

Also corrects the stale route list in the audit script: /hooks/,
/workflows/ and /tools/ have never existed as pages.

* fix(website): collapse long filter facets and unpin detail-page footer

Two issues surfaced by review of the redesigned site:

Catalog facets rendered every option. The prototype's filter groups were
built from small hardcoded arrays, but real data produces 193 tool options
on /agents/ and 245 "Applies to" values on /instructions/. The sidebar grew
to ~10,000px and stretched the whole catalog row, pushing the (already
present) pagination control far below the fold so it read as missing.

Adopt the prototype's own solution for this, which it had already applied to
the extensions page: collapse groups past 10 options behind a "Show N more"
toggle, and cap .filterOptions with an internal scroll area. Ported verbatim
to the agents, instructions, skills, and plugins catalogs.

Detail pages scroll inside .scrollHost rather than the document, but the
footer came from PageShell, outside that element, so it stayed pinned over
the content instead of appearing at the end. The prototype renders its
footer inside the scroll host; PageShell now takes a renderFooter flag so
DetailChassis can do the same. LearningArticleLayout already did this.

* fix(website): resolve article text colour inside themed scope

Injected markdown inherited color from body, which sits outside the
ThemeProvider and always resolved the light-mode token, making body
copy unreadable in dark mode.

* fix(website): drop 'In this article' TOC from resource detail pages

Resource detail pages (agent, instruction, skill, plugin, extension) are
not articles, and their markdown headings do not form a meaningful
outline. Playbook and cookbook articles keep their TOC.

* fix(website): use themed link colour for markdown links in dark mode

Raw markdown-injected <a> elements previously fell back to the browser's
default blue/purple link colours, which are harsh against the dark-mode
background. Route them through --brand-color-text-link-rest (and the
pressed/hover token) instead.

* fix(website): apply ThemeProvider to Playbook article layout so dark mode works

LearningArticleLayout replaces PageShell for Playbook articles but never
wrapped itself in a ThemeProvider, so its useTheme() call always fell back
to Primer's light default regardless of the site's actual theme preference.
Split the component into a thin ThemeProvider wrapper plus the existing
implementation (now LearningArticleLayoutBody), matching the pattern already
used by PageShell.

* fix(website): align raw markdown code blocks with prototype styling

Astro's default Shiki config bakes in the fixed 'github-dark' theme's
literal colors, ignoring the site's actual light/dark mode - this made
plain markdown-fenced code blocks (as opposed to the prototype's own
SyntaxHighlightedCode component) always render a hardcoded dark box
regardless of theme.

Switch shikiConfig to the 'css-variables' theme so highlighted tokens
resolve through --astro-code-* custom properties instead, then map
those to the same brand color tokens the prototype's codeBlock uses
(canvas-subtle background, border-muted border, brand text/link/accent
colors for tokens). Raw markdown code blocks now match the prototype's
bordered, canvas-subtle surface in both color modes.

* fix(website): show real contributor count on every page shell

The contributor badge rendered 0 on Playbook, Cookbook, home and custom
pages, and reverted to 0 on hydration everywhere else.

Two causes:
- Shells that bypass PageShell (LearningArticleLayout, PlaybookIndex,
  PlaybookArticleBody, CookbookIndex, HomePage, TopNav, Custom) defaulted
  contributorsTotal to 0 instead of the site-data value.
- site-data read .all-contributorsrc with node:fs at module scope. Those
  shells are client:load hydrated, so the read threw in the browser and
  the count reset to 0 after hydration.

The count is now read once in astro.config.mjs and inlined through
vite.define as __CONTRIBUTORS_TOTAL__, so it is a literal in both the
server render and the client bundle.

* style(website): soften catalog filter list scrollbars

The filter option lists only set scrollbar-width: thin, so they rendered
the platform default scrollbar. They now use the same muted, transparent
track treatment as the article sidebar, which resolves through
--brand-color-border-muted in both colour modes.

Plugin detail pages exposed only a copyable CLI command. They now lead
with a ghapp://plugins/install deep link in the same split-button
ActionMenu the other detail pages use, keeping the CLI command available
as a Copy action in the menu.

* fix(website): migrate markdown remark plugins to unified processor

Astro 7 deprecates markdown.remarkPlugins in favour of passing a
unified() processor from @astrojs/markdown-remark. Moves the GitHub
admonitions plugin into markdown.processor, clearing the startup
deprecation warning. shikiConfig stays at the markdown level as it is
not part of UnifiedProcessorOptions.

* fix(website): fail the build when the contributor manifest is unreadable

Silently falling back to 0 is how the contributor badge regressed before,
so a missing or malformed .all-contributorsrc now throws in production
builds and warns in dev instead of shipping a wrong count.

- Fix real typos flagged by codespell: 'Couldn&apos;t' -> 'Couldn't'
  (plain apostrophe, matching convention elsewhere in JSX) and
  'Unparseable' -> 'Unparsable' in catalogFilters.ts
- DetailChassis.tsx: replace sequential HTML entity unescaping with a
  single-pass replace to avoid double-unescape/injection risk flagged
  by CodeQL
- SyntaxHighlightedCode.tsx: make the markup HTML comment regex match
  newlines so multi-line comments cannot break out of the token
  (Bad HTML filtering regexp)
- pagefindSearch.ts: strip HTML tags in a loop until stable so nested/
  malformed markup can't survive a single-pass strip (Incomplete
  multi-character sanitization)

* github-app settings

* Fix light-theme flash before dark mode applies on page load

ThemeProvider colorMode="auto" from @primer/react-brand only resolves
the real OS colour-scheme preference inside a useEffect, so its first
render is always light. Add a synchronous inline script in <head> that
reads prefers-color-scheme and stamps data-color-mode onto <html>
before first paint, using the same attribute Primer Brand's CSS
already keys off. React's own data-color-mode on the inner element
takes over once it hydrates.

* Fix light-mode scrollbar rendering in dark mode on Playbook articles

.scrollHost (the article scroll region shared by Playbook articles,
cookbook recipes, and extension detail pages) never declared a
color-scheme, so the browser always painted its native scrollbar using
light-mode chrome regardless of the site's active theme. Set
color-scheme: light dark as a baseline and pin it explicitly to the
resolved data-mode, and add scrollbar-color so Firefox picks up the
themed thumb colour too.

The Canvas Extensions overview card thumbnail was fixed at 360px, leaving
uneven left/right margins within the card. Let it grow up to 440px and
center it with margin-inline: auto so the image is balanced within the
card.

* Link Submit CTAs to each resource's contribution section

The bottom "Submit" CTA on every catalog page pointed at the top of
CONTRIBUTING.md, forcing readers to scroll and hunt for the relevant
"how to contribute" instructions for that specific resource type.
Point each catalog's CTA directly at the section that documents how to
contribute that resource: agents, instructions, plugins, and skills
link to their dedicated docs/README.*.md "How to Contribute" section,
and canvas extensions link to CONTRIBUTING.md's "Adding Canvas
Extensions" section (extensions have no dedicated README doc).

* Center-align "View on GitHub" source link with its icon

The source-link label sat on the default inline text baseline instead
of being vertically centered against the GitHub mark icon next to it,
so the two visually drifted apart. Wrap the icon and label in an
inline-flex container with align-items: center so they share the same
vertical center.

Clean up the shared resource detail and Playbook article styling so mobile pages no longer show unintended divider lines or overflow horizontally.

- remove article-section divider borders so content separates with spacing instead of white/muted horizontal rules
- drop the detail-page breadcrumb divider on mobile to match the Playbook mobile treatment
- constrain raw markdown pre/code blocks to their column and let long code scroll horizontally
- allow metadata chips to wrap inside the mobile sidebar instead of widening the page

* Only show language selector on pages with real translations

Most of the site is English-only, but the language selector rendered
unconditionally on every page even though only the
learning-hub/copilot-workshops/app track has mirrored translations.

Add hasTranslations() to playbook-routes.ts, thread a showLanguageSelect
prop through PageShell, TopNav and LearningArticleLayout, and compute
it from the article's englishId in learning-hub/[...slug].astro so only
translated Playbook articles show the selector.

* Add Workshop recommended card to Playbook index

The copilot-workshops hands-on tracks (VS Code, CLI, App, Cloud harnesses) existed and rendered correctly at direct URLs, but had no entry point in the new Playbook index UI -- the Articles grid intentionally excludes nested multi-page tracks by design, and the only prior link was buried in body prose.

Adds a 'Workshop' recommended card (following the existing cli-for-beginners precedent) linking to /learning-hub/copilot-workshops/, and registers the route in pageHref.ts.

* Add a Workshop content-type filter to the Playbook

The hands-on workshop tracks (CLI for Beginners, and the copilot-workshops harnesses) had no shared way to discover them from the Articles grid -- each had a recommended card, but no consistent categorization.

Tags both workshop landing pages 'workshop', adds a new 'Workshop' Kind/content-type facet (derived the same way as the existing Terminology/Tutorial/Example kinds), and includes both landing pages in the Articles grid dataset so filtering by Content type > Workshop surfaces exactly the two tracks.

  not the requested URL locale (BaseLayout.astro, playbook-routes.ts,
  PlaybookArticle.astro)
- P0: markdown tables get tabindex=0 via enhanceMarkdownA11y, which
  Playbook articles were never running (PlaybookArticle.astro)
- P0: long inline content and breadcrumbs no longer clip on narrow
  viewports (dotnet-upgrade.module.css, github-copilot-app.module.css)
- P1: strip the markdown document's own leading H1 so detail pages
  don't render the title twice (detail-page.ts)
- P1: document the hero secondary-CTA hex and InstructionsCatalog
  illustration colors as intentional prototype-fidelity values rather
  than defects (styles.module.css)

lib/playbook-routes.ts -> lib/learning-hub-routes.ts, and
lib/playbook-article.ts -> lib/learning-hub-article.ts. Updates all
call sites, UI copy, TopNav's playbookLabel prop, nav/search entries,
and home page CTA data to use Learning Hub terminology. URLs under
/learning-hub/* are unchanged.

* Port github-copilot-app as bespoke Learning Hub article

Adopts the prototype's github-copilot-app.tsx directly as a dedicated React
component instead of rendering it through the generic markdown pipeline,
preserving its video carousel, comparison list, learn-more band, and other
bespoke JSX exactly as designed.

- New GithubCopilotApp.tsx under components/brand/learning-hub/, ported
  near-verbatim from the prototype (data-wiring only: pageHref import swap,
  media paths).
- The two large source videos (~23MB, ~32MB) are not committed; the article
  falls back to their poster/webp images with a TODO to host them externally.
- learning-hub-bespoke-articles.ts lists slugs that bypass the generic
  LearningHubArticle.astro pipeline.
- [...slug].astro branches to the bespoke component for "github-copilot-app"
  (English only for now); all other slugs and locales keep the generic path.

* Port bespoke Learning Hub articles

Add bespoke Learning Hub article components for the remaining prototype-backed
article pages, wire the cookbook index to the data-driven port, and route the
CLI overview page through the new bespoke component.

* Fix Learning Hub Get started pages disappearing after opening (#2960)

The bespoke Learning Hub article components (GithubCopilotApp,
AgentsAndSubagents, CopilotConfigurationBasics,
GithubCopilotTerminologyGlossary, UsingAutomationsInCopilotApp,
WhatAreAgentsSkillsInstructions, WorkingWithCanvasExtensions,
CliForBeginnersOverview, CookbookIndex) received the `pageHref` helper
as a function prop passed into a `client:load` React island. Functions
cannot survive Astro's client-hydration prop serialization, so the
prop arrived as `undefined` on the client. The page rendered correctly
server-side (visible briefly), then React threw
`TypeError: pageHref is not a function` during hydration and unmounted
the tree, making the page appear to disappear.

Fixed by having each component import the `pageHref` singleton
directly (as AgentDetail, HomePage, and the other catalog components
already do) instead of receiving it as a prop, and removed the now
unnecessary `pageHref={pageHref}` prop and its import from the two
Astro routes that render these islands.

Verified in the dev server: all 9 previously affected routes now
hydrate without error, and `npm run build` completes successfully
(1097 pages).

* Strip stray trailing divider from Learning Hub articles (#2961)

Several Learning Hub markdown articles end their body with a trailing
--- thematic break, left over from an authoring template. Rendered
as-is it produced an unlabeled <hr> sitting directly above the page
footer, with no heading/section boundary to justify it.

Fix this generically in buildArticleSections() by stripping a single
trailing <hr> from the rendered HTML before it's split into sections,
rather than hand-editing every affected content file. This also
protects future articles authored with the same trailing-rule habit.
Legitimate mid-content dividers (e.g. between CLI lesson steps) are
left untouched.

* Remove emojis from Learning Hub article nav (#2962)

CLI for Beginners lessons decorate their ## headings with emoji
(e.g. "🎯 Learning Objectives"), which is fine inline in the article
body but read as stray glyphs once surfaced as plain-text labels in
the "In this article" nav — other Learning Hub pages don't
emoji-decorate their nav, so this was inconsistent.

Add a shared stripEmoji() helper and apply it to the nav labels built
from markdown headings in LearningHubArticle.astro. The article body
headings themselves are untouched.

* Fix hero code blocks blending into background (#2963)

Detail page hero install-command code blocks (SyntaxHighlightedCode via
heroExtras) used the same background token as the hero surface itself
(--brand-color-canvas-subtle), making them visually indistinguishable
except for a thin border.

Add a scoped .heroContent .codeBlock override in both shared style
modules (dotnet-upgrade.module.css for catalog Detail pages/Cookbook,
github-copilot-app.module.css for Learning Hub) that sets the
background to --brand-color-canvas-default instead, so hero code
blocks stand apart from the hero background.

The base .codeBlock rule is left untouched since body-content code
blocks (e.g. Cookbook recipe steps) correctly rely on canvas-subtle
being distinct from the page's canvas-default background.

* Tie color-scheme to dark mode for native scrollbars (#2964)

Native scrollbars (the page scrollbar, and any overflow container
without custom scrollbar styling, e.g. code block <pre> elements) are
painted by the browser based on the color-scheme CSS property, not our
design tokens. Only a handful of scoped containers (.scrollHost,
.filterOptions, .sidebarSticky) had custom scrollbar-color rules; the
page scrollbar and plain code-block overflow scrollbars had no
color-scheme set at all, so they rendered with light OS-default
scrollbars even when data-color-mode="dark" was set on <html>.

Add a global rule tying html's color-scheme to the same
data-color-mode attribute BaseLayout.astro already stamps on <html>,
so every native scrollbar (and other UA-drawn form controls) follows
the site's theme.

* Unify article/detail page typography, tables, and dividers (#2965)

Raw markdown injected into .articleSection (Skill/Agent/Instruction/
Plugin/Extension Detail pages via dotnet-upgrade.module.css, and
Learning Hub articles via github-copilot-app.module.css) had no styling
for headings, tables, horizontal rules, blockquotes, or inline code, so
it fell back to inconsistent browser UA defaults -- most visibly,
tables rendered with no borders or header emphasis at all.

Add a shared set of rules to both CSS modules, scoped under
.articleSection, that:
- map raw h1-h6 onto the brand type scale (font, weight, line-height)
- give hr a full-width divider matching the border-muted token
- style blockquote with a left accent bar
- render inline `code` (outside <pre>) as a small chip, matching
  .inlineCode used elsewhere for hand-authored tokens
- style table/th/td with bordered cells and a canvas-subtle header row,
  scrolling horizontally on narrow viewports

Also fix skills/acquire-codebase-knowledge/SKILL.md: a stray blank
line inside the "Bundled Assets" table split it into a lone header row
and a second block with no header, so GFM table parsing stopped after
the first row and the remaining rows rendered as literal pipe-delimited
text instead of a table -- this was the exact bug shown in the issue
screenshot.

* fix: align previous/next navigation links horizontally on Detail pages

Detail page Previous/Up next links were stacked vertically. Change
.nextUp to a row layout (space-between) so Previous sits left-aligned
and Up next right-aligned on the same row, with a max-width: 40rem
media query reverting to a stacked column layout on small screens.

Use an explicit .nextUpNext modifier class (applied to the "Up next"
link specifically) with margin-inline-start: auto instead of a
positional :last-child selector, so the link right-aligns correctly
even when it is the only link present (e.g. the first item in a
catalog, which has no Previous link).

Fixes #2966

* fix: align callout blocks with article content width

The .proTip callout (Note/Tip/Caution admonitions in Learning Hub
articles, and the "Maintained outside this repository" notice on
external Plugin Detail pages) had its own 32px horizontal margin.

The prototype places this callout as a sibling of .articleSection
(which has no horizontal padding of its own), using that margin to
align its edges with the section's own 32px padding. Our port always
renders it nested *inside* an already-padded .articleSection, so the
extra margin doubled up with that padding, making the callout visibly
narrower than the surrounding paragraph/table text -- most obvious on
narrow viewports.

Remove the horizontal margin (keep only the bottom spacing) in both
dotnet-upgrade.module.css and github-copilot-app.module.css so the
callout's internal padding lines up with the article text on both
edges, at all viewport widths.

Fixes #2967

* fix: standardize mobile card padding across resource pages

Agents, Instructions, Skills, and Plugins catalog cards (.item) used
the desktop 60px padding at every viewport, including phone widths,
because their @media (max-width: 47.99rem) block never reduced it --
unlike the Extension catalog, which drops to a 32px inset at that
breakpoint. This made cards on those four catalogs look inconsistently
over-indented on mobile compared to Extension cards.

Add the same `.item { padding: var(--base-size-32); }` override to the
mobile media query in agents.module.css, instructions.module.css, and
skills.module.css. plugins.module.css already had an override, but
with an asymmetric 32px/24px padding -- normalized it to the same 32px
on all sides used everywhere else.

Awesome GitHub Copilot website

Astro + Starlight site published to https://awesome-copilot.github.com/.

Local development

Run these from the repository root (they generate the data the site needs first):

npm run website:data    # generate public/data/*.json from repo content
npm run website:dev     # generate data + start the dev server
npm run website:build   # full production build

Accessibility

The website has an automated axe-core + Playwright audit. Run it locally with npm run website:a11y from the repository root, or run npm run a11y from website/ after building dist first.

CI blocks on critical and serious violations. Minor and moderate best-practice issues are reported as non-blocking.

Authoring conventions: resource cards use div[role="listitem"] wrappers, not <article>; only add role="list" to containers whose direct children are list items; do not nest interactive controls inside another focusable element; .btn-primary and ToC links must meet WCAG AA (4.5:1) contrast in both light and dark themes.

Security hardening notes

  • The site ships with a baseline meta CSP and referrer policy in src/components/Head.astro.
  • Because the site is hosted on GitHub Pages, response headers are not controllable in-repo. For stricter enforcement (for example, header-based CSP with nonce/hashes), place the site behind infrastructure that can set HTTP security headers.
  • Markdown rendered for detail/file-browser experiences is sanitized with the shared sanitizeHtml() helper before insertion.

Social preview cards (LinkedIn, etc.)

Shared links render as large preview cards driven by Open Graph / Twitter meta tags. LinkedIn (and most platforms) read Open Graph — primarily og:image — while Twitter/X also uses twitter:card=summary_large_image. Most tags are produced automatically:

  • Starlight defaults emit og:title, og:description, og:url, og:type, og:site_name, and twitter:card=summary_large_image.
  • astro.config.mjs (global head) emits the shared image tags: og:image, og:image:width, og:image:height, og:image:alt, and twitter:image.
  • src/components/Head.astro adds twitter:title/description, og:image:secure_url, og:image:type, and twitter:image:alt.

Each page's title and description (StarlightPage frontmatter) flow into the card text, so keep them clear and benefit-focused.

The image-dimension invariant

og:image:width / og:image:height in astro.config.mjs describe public/images/social-image.png (currently 2400×1260, ~1.91:1). Crawlers use these dimensions to understand the image and may use them when selecting/rendering the preview. If you swap the image or add a per-page image override, update the full image set so every tag stays consistent: og:image, og:image:width, og:image:height, og:image:alt, and twitter:image (the last one matters because Head.astro derives og:image:secure_url from twitter:image first).

After deploying

LinkedIn caches scrapes aggressively. To force a refresh and confirm the card renders, run the changed URL through the LinkedIn Post Inspector. HTML output alone doesn't prove the live card — verify the deployed image returns HTTP 200 over HTTPS with Content-Type: image/png and no auth.
