This PR adds a comprehensive .github/copilot-instructions.md file that provides detailed instructions for GitHub Copilot on how to work effectively with the bloecks REDAXO addon codebase.

The instructions include:

  • Complete setup workflow with validated commands and accurate timing information
  • Build process documentation for both development (grunt) and production (grunt --production) builds
  • Asset management instructions covering LESS compilation, JavaScript concatenation/uglification, and rsync synchronization
  • Release management commands including the zip creation process for REDAXO installer packages
  • Known limitations such as the macOS-specific version.sh script that fails on Linux environments
  • File structure navigation guide covering key directories, plugins, and asset processing workflow
  • Validation scenarios to ensure changes work correctly with the REDAXO addon system

All commands have been thoroughly tested and validated with specific timeout recommendations (e.g., "NEVER CANCEL: Set timeout to 30+ seconds") to prevent premature cancellation of build processes. The instructions follow an imperative tone as requested and provide exact timing expectations based on actual measurements.

Key validation results:

  • npm install: ~6-35 seconds depending on cache state
  • grunt --production: ~1.6 seconds consistently
  • ./zip.sh: ~2 seconds including full production build
  • Complete end-to-end workflow tested from clean state

The instructions enable any developer to quickly understand and work with this REDAXO CMS addon that uses a Node.js/Grunt build system for frontend asset compilation.

Fixes #136.
