betterthantomorrow Modernize Joyride LLM Context
One-time migration skill. The Joyride extension now bundles skills with
comprehensive API documentation and pattern guidance. Older installations
may have a copilot-instructions.md that duplicates this content or
fetches it from GitHub URLs.
Step 0 — Check if migration is needed
Look for ~/.config/joyride/.github/llm-contexts-0.0.73.txt. If this file
exists, migration has already been done — inform the user and stop.
If the file does not exist, proceed with the migration.
Step 1 — Assess
Read ~/.config/joyride/.github/copilot-instructions.md and classify:
| Situation | Markers |
|---|---|
| Old template | Contains fetch_webpage URLs pointing to llm-contexts/, title "Joyride User Scripts Project Assistant", duplicated API docs |
| Already modern | Short file (~25 lines), references bundled skills, has "Project Inventory" section |
| Custom content | User-written content with no old template markers |
| Mixed | Old template sections plus user-added custom sections |
| Missing | File does not exist |
If the file is already modern or missing, skip to Step 4.
Step 2 — Read the target format
The modern copilot-instructions.md is a short project inventory (~25 lines) that defers all API documentation to the extension's bundled skills. No fetch URLs, no duplicated docs. The format:
---
description: 'Joyride User project — scripts and source files available across all VS Code windows'
applyTo: '**'
---
# Joyride User Project
This is your Joyride User project at `~/.config/joyride/`. Scripts and
source files here are available globally across all VS Code windows.
The Joyride extension bundles skills with comprehensive API documentation
and pattern guidance. These instructions focus on this project's specific
content.
## Project Inventory
- `scripts/user_activate.cljs` — Activation script, manages disposables
- (list actual files found in scripts/ and src/)
## Development
Use the REPL (`joyride_evaluate_code`) as your primary tool. Develop
incrementally, evaluate subexpressions, only update files when asked.
Prefer structural editing tools when editing Clojure files.
As new scripts and source files are added to this project, update the
inventory above.
Step 3 — Plan
Build a migration plan based on the assessment:
- Old template only: Replace entirely with the modern format. Scan the project for scripts and source files to populate the inventory.
- Custom content only: Prepend the modern header (frontmatter + intro + inventory), preserve all custom content below it.
- Mixed: Remove old template sections (fetch URLs, duplicated API docs, "Essential Information Sources" section, etc.). Keep user-added sections. Add the modern header if missing.
Present the plan to the user showing:
- What will be removed (with brief excerpts)
- What will be preserved
- What will be added
Wait for explicit user approval before making any changes.
Step 4 — Complete
Apply the approved changes (if any), then create the marker file:
~/.config/joyride/.github/llm-contexts-0.0.73.txt
Write a single line: Joyride LLM contexts updated to version 0.0.73 bundled skills.
This prevents the migration from being offered again.
