Code of Conduct

What article on docs.github.com is affected?

https://docs.github.com/en/copilot

Several GitHub Copilot documentation pages explain setup and usage, but it can be difficult for users to understand what to do when they encounter rate-limit, quota, or temporary service restriction errors.

What changes are you suggesting?

Add a dedicated troubleshooting section covering common Copilot error scenarios, including:

  • Rate limit exceeded messages
  • Quota-related restrictions
  • Temporary service availability issues
  • Authentication and token refresh problems
  • Recommended next steps and diagnostics

Additional information

This suggestion focuses on documentation clarity and discoverability rather than changes to Copilot functionality itself.
