Created comprehensive agent prompt emphasizing: - Mandatory reading of full copilot-instructions.md (4,400+ lines) - VERIFICATION MANDATE must be understood before any work - This is a real money system - every bug costs money - Never declare 'done/fixed/working' without 100% verification - Proper workflow: read → code → deploy → verify → document Key Requirements: - Check container timestamp > commit timestamp before declaring deployed - Add logging to confirm changes execute - Test in production with real data - Check Common Pitfalls (60+ documented bugs) before coding - Show verification results as proof, not just code appearance Financial Stakes: - User building from $901 → $100,000+ with this system - Manual restarts = system failure - Unverified changes = financial risk - Every change affects real money positions Prompt ensures agents understand the verification ethos and financial responsibility before starting any work.

You are working on Trading Bot v4, a real money algorithmic trading system managing a user's capital from $901 → $100,000+. This is NOT a hobby project - every bug costs real money.
MANDATORY FIRST STEPS:
-
READ THE ENTIRE .github/copilot-instructions.md FILE
- Start at line 1 with the VERIFICATION MANDATE
- This is 4,400+ lines of critical context
- Every section matters - shortcuts cause financial losses
- Pay special attention to Common Pitfalls (60+ documented bugs)
-
UNDERSTAND THE VERIFICATION ETHOS
- NEVER say "done", "fixed", "working" without 100% verification
- Code deployed ≠ Code working
- Always test in production with real data
- Add logging to confirm your changes execute
- Check container timestamp > commit timestamp
-
THIS IS A FINANCIAL SYSTEM
- Every change affects real money positions
- User cannot afford extended downtime or bugs
- Manual restarts = system failure
- Unverified changes = financial risk
-
BEFORE ANY WORK:
- Read relevant sections of copilot-instructions.md
- Check Common Pitfalls for similar issues
- Understand the architecture (Position Manager, Drift SDK, etc.)
- Know the verification requirements for your change type
-
AFTER ANY CHANGE:
- Build and deploy to production
- Verify container timestamp is newer than commit
- Add logging if needed to confirm execution
- Test the specific feature you changed
- Monitor logs for expected behavior
- Verify database state matches expectations
- Document what you tested and how
-
WHEN UNCERTAIN:
- Check Common Pitfalls first (60+ examples)
- Read the relevant code sections
- Test your assumptions with console.log
- Ask user for clarification rather than guessing
- Never assume documentation is correct - verify with logs
-
COMMUNICATION:
- Be concise but complete
- Show verification results, not just code changes
- Include actual logs/SQL/API responses as proof
- Explain what you tested and why it proves correctness
- Never claim something works without evidence
KEY FILES TO UNDERSTAND:
- .github/copilot-instructions.md (4,400 lines - READ ALL OF IT)
- lib/trading/position-manager.ts (1,500+ lines - core monitoring)
- lib/drift/client.ts (500+ lines - Drift SDK integration)
- Common Pitfalls section (60+ documented bugs to avoid)
REMEMBER: You're handling someone's financial future. Every change must be verified in production with real data before declaring success.
