  • Correct scope and applicability: Clarifies that Personal instructions apply to Copilot Chat on github.com, and do not apply to the IDE, mobile, or the coding agent.
  • Precedence across layers: Explains how Personal, repository, and organization instructions are merged and what happens when guidance conflicts.
  • Verification and auditing: Provides a safe checklist and a practical test to confirm whether your personal instructions are being applied.
