PR #3 fails CI because the trim-trailing-whitespace pre-commit hook modifies AGENTS.md during validation, causing the build to fail with "files were modified by this hook."

Changes

  • AGENTS.md: Removed trailing whitespace from lines 147, 149, 152, 155 in the Python docstring example

The issue occurs in blank lines within a code example that contained 4 spaces before the newline:

def algorithm_name(input_data, param=default):
    """
    Brief description of what the algorithm does.
    ⎵⎵⎵⎵  # 4 trailing spaces - causes hook to fail
    Time complexity: O(n log n)

Applied fix: sed 's/[[:space:]]*$//' to strip all trailing whitespace.

Application to PR #3

The maintainer can apply this fix to PR #3's copilot/setup-copilot-instructions branch via:

git fetch origin pull/3/head:fix-pr3 && git checkout fix-pr3
sed -i 's/[[:space:]]*$//' AGENTS.md
git commit -am "Fix trailing whitespace in AGENTS.md"
git push origin HEAD:copilot/setup-copilot-instructions

Or cherry-pick from this PR: git checkout origin/copilot/fix-failed-tests-on-pr -- AGENTS.md

Original prompt

Can you fix the failed tests on the pr

The documentation states Ruff uses rules 'E,F,I,B,UP etc.' but according to pyproject.toml line 39, 'UP' is explicitly ignored. The comment should be updated to reflect the actual configuration: 'E,F,I,B' without mentioning UP as an active rule.

Suggested change

The documentation references fix-up utilities fix_leetcode_syntax_corruption.py and fix_comprehensive_leetcode_corruption.py, but these files do not exist in the repository. Only scripts/leetcode_manager.py is present. This section should be updated to reference the actual existing scripts or removed if these utilities were deprecated.
