Adds .github/copilot-instructions.md to provide repository context for GitHub Copilot coding agents.

Contents:

  • Repository overview — Chrome MV3 extension stack (vanilla JS, Web Crypto, IndexedDB), no build step
  • Build/test commandsnpm install, npm test (Vitest), extension loading workflow, E2E test setup
  • Architecture — Directory structure, component breakdown (content scripts, background worker, storage engine, GitHub GraphQL sync)
  • Code conventions — ES6+ vanilla JS requirement (no frameworks), security patterns (AES-GCM token encryption, sender validation), error handling
  • Known issues — DOM selector fragility across AI platforms, Chrome storage quota (~5MB), existing test failures in storage.test.js (mock configuration issues, not functional bugs)

Reduces agent exploration time by documenting: no transpilation required, batch sync uses GraphQL not REST, content scripts use MutationObserver for conversation capture, files stored as {platform}/{date}/{id}.json.gz.
