HVE Core is Microsoft's opinionated library of GitHub Copilot agents, prompts, instructions, and skills for building repeatable AI-assisted software development workflows. It is a rapidly evolving pattern source rather than a stable production dependency.

Use cases

• set up AI-assisted development workflows with GitHub Copilot
• add custom agents for research, planning, implementation, and code review
• apply consistent coding standards automatically via Copilot instructions
• learn patterns for building an agentic software development lifecycle
• bootstrap a new project with validated Copilot prompts and skills
• upgrade an existing repo to get more out of GitHub Copilot

When to choose

• you use GitHub Copilot in VS Code and want structured, repeatable AI workflows
• you want to learn or borrow patterns for agentic SDLC tooling
• you want reusable prompts, agents, and skills to standardize AI-assisted development across a team

When to avoid

• you need a stable, backward-compatible production dependency
• you want an unopinionated or framework-agnostic AI workflow setup
• you don't use GitHub Copilot or VS Code
