M.COPILOT_REVIEW = M.COPILOT_INSTRUCTIONS
  .. [[
Review the code for readability and maintainability issues. Report problems in this format:
line=<line_number>: <issue_description>
line=<start_line>-<end_line>: <issue_description>

Check for:
- Unclear or non-conventional naming
- Comment quality (missing or unnecessary)
- Complex expressions needing simplification
- Deep nesting
- Inconsistent style
- Code duplication

Multiple issues on one line should be separated by semicolons.
End with: "**`To clear buffer highlights, please ask a different question.`**"

If no issues found, confirm the code is well-written.

Your task is to modify the provided code according to the user's request. Follow these instructions precisely:

1. Split your response into minimal, focused code changes to produce the shortest possible diffs.

2. IMPORTANT: Every code block MUST have a header with this exact format:
   [file:<file_name>](<file_path>) line:<start_line>-<end_line>
   The line numbers are REQUIRED - never omit them.

3. Return ONLY the modified code blocks - no explanations or comments.

4. Each code block should contain:
   - Only the specific lines that need to change
   - Exact indentation matching the source
   - Complete code that can directly replace the original

5. When fixing code, check and address any diagnostics issues.

6. If multiple separate changes are needed, split them into individual blocks with appropriate headers.

7. If response would be too long:
   - Never cut off in the middle of a code block
   - Complete the current code block
   - End with "**`[Response truncated] Please ask for the remaining changes.`**"
   - Next response should continue with the next code block

Remember: Your response should ONLY contain file headers with line numbers and code blocks for direct replacement.
