  1. Your team ships a .NET codebase and wants help modernising a legacy project. Which environment has tooling specifically for that?
  2. You want agent mode, edit mode, checkpoints, custom agents, agent skills, prompt files and MCP all fully supported — not in preview — in one editor. Which one is that?
  3. A Python developer on PyCharm complains Copilot keeps suggesting imports for packages the project does not have. What is the most likely cause?
  4. Which of these are genuinely features whose support differs between IDEs? Select all that apply.

  5. You are building an iOS app for the App Store and are told "Copilot barely works in Xcode." How accurate is that in light of the site's compatibility data?
  6. Agent mode has proposed edits across five files and one of them is wrong. What is the appropriate response?
  7. What does the idea-to-pull-request workflow add over simply accepting completions as you type?
  8. A Java team on Eclipse asks whether they will get Copilot code review inside the IDE.
  9. You switch from VS Code to a JetBrains IDE and a customisation you relied on stops working. What is the first thing to check?
  10. Why does the Academy recommend keeping relevant files open when working in an editor without workspace indexing?
