GitHub Copilot inconsistently applies framework-specific instructions
7/10 HighCopilot fails to consistently follow framework-specific instruction files provided by developers. Instructions are acknowledged but then ignored, requiring developers to repeat the same context multiple times across requests.

Copilot forgets what it's told. I give it instruction files for each framework. Sometimes it reads them. Often I have to show it the same content multiple times across different requests just to get traction. It advises me on structuring those files—then ignores them.
