Add versioning for system and creator prompts by Copilot · Pull Request #16330 · github/gh-aw

Copilot · 2026-02-17T12:16:39Z

Workflow runs lack traceability to the prompt versions that generated them, making debugging behavioral changes and ensuring reproducibility difficult.

Changes

Version Tracking System (pkg/workflow/prompt_versions.go)

Date-based versioning (YYYY-MM-DD) for 9 system prompt files
SHA-256 hash (16-char) for creator prompt content
PromptVersionManifest tracks all versions with generation timestamp

Workflow Integration (pkg/workflow/compiler_yaml.go)

Version manifest embedded in compiled workflow headers as YAML comments
Computed during generateYAML() alongside frontmatter hash

Prompt File Headers

Added  to all system prompts in actions/setup/md/ and pkg/workflow/prompts/

Example Output

# frontmatter-hash: cac25400144ca6d48212840d7365a5d094dde225c818a123a6770e32a8dbc97f

Version updates require:

Update prompt file header with new date
Update corresponding constant in prompt_versions.go
Rebuild and recompile workflows

See docs/prompt-versioning.md for maintenance procedures.

@copilot What about md files under .github/aw and .github/agents?

@copilot What about md files under .github/aw and .github/agents?

Great question! Files in .github/aw/ and .github/agents/ are different from system prompts:

System prompts (actions/setup/md/*.md) are infrastructure prompts that provide security policies, tool instructions, etc. They use date-based versioning (2026-02-17).

Agent prompts (.github/aw/*.md, .github/agents/*.md) are like application code - they define agent behavior and should follow semantic versioning (1.0.0, 1.1.0, 2.0.0) as noted in best practices.

I'll extend the implementation to support semantic versioning for agent prompts, tracked via Git tags, while keeping date-based versioning for system prompts. This follows industry standards where:

Infrastructure/platform prompts → date-based (when they changed)
Agent/application prompts → semantic (breaking changes, features, patches)
