    1. I built a 15-minute race against AI models on real GitHub bugs, entirely with Copilot
    2. My Copilot built 4 MCP servers for me in minutes — Jenkins, Bitbucket, Teams, and a DB connector. Here's what I learned.
    3. Tool routing, graph navigation and cache optimization for Copilot CLI: up to half the tokens, built with proof-driven development
