Description: PR #1437 revealed agents preemptively duplicate code (e.g. copying a helper into two modules) instead of creating a shared implementation. This adds a new skill to guide that decision. Changes New skill .agents/skills/usethis-python-code/SKILL.md: Covers when to share vs. duplicate code — procedure for checking existing code first, criteria for when duplication is acceptable (different purposes, concrete behavioral differences, fragile coupling), and common mistakes (duplicating when replacing a dependency, speculative divergence). References usethis-python-code-modify. AGENTS.md: Added usethis-python-code to the important skills list so it's loaded alongside usethis-python-code-modify when modifying Python code. Original prompt This section details on the original issue you should resolve Instruct agent on when to introduce duplications This came up in #1437 It's a bit of an art to decide when to duplicate code, and its hard to give specific instructions, but it's worth trying to make a start. Can add this to a new usethis-python-code skill. This new skill should reference the usethis-python-code-modify skill. Comments on the Issue (you are @copilot in this section) Fixes #1438 ⌨️ Start Copilot coding agent tasks without leaving your editor — available in VS Code, Visual Studio, JetBrains IDEs and Eclipse.
