[External Plugin]: Goal skill for Copilot

[gsemet]

Plugin name

copilot-goal-skill

Short description

Hello

I have release a successful skill i use internally in my company for several month: it is basically a /goal skill for copilot.
See https://github.com/gsemet/copilot-goal-skill

Compared to autopilot, it uses a subagent to evaluate if the work is finished or not.

Additional notes for reviewers

Autonomous task completion — an orchestrator that bounces between a Builder (does the work) and an Inspector (judges the result) until the goal is met.

How It Works

• Relentless interview — asks clarifying questions until it can write a clear goal with measurable acceptance criteria
• Project discovery — explores your repo for conventions, quality gates, commit rules
• Writes a goal file — immutable goal.md with acceptance criteria that becomes the single source of truth
• Builder → Inspector loop — the Builder implements and commits; a separate Inspector (different model, fresh context) independently verifies against the goal; if FAIL, the Builder gets feedback and tries again
• Summary and squash — when the Inspector says PASS, you get a summary and a ready-to-use squash command
