The report identifies the GitHub Copilot quickstart at https://docs.github.com/en/copilot/get-started/quickstart-copilot-app as out of date because it mentions “Projects,” which is absent from the UI in version 1.1.30. Read the linked guide and compare its Projects instructions with the app’s /chat UI in that version. Update the guide so its instructions match the available UI.
