Or will I need 2 PRs (1 to change the .md & 1 to test the new rule) #github #copilot

Tub spout end cut apart. Fingers grabbing the grey plastic diverter part from the dissected metal spout
New tub spout with cut open tip on one side of the pic. The other side of the pic shows the liberated grey plastic diverter (and integrated round black rubber washer) and the accompanying diverter pull stem
Old spout reassembled. New diverter stem matched finish of old spout
Bathtub/shower diverter no longer diverting. Couldnβt procure just the grey plastic diverter so bought a spout. New spout too long so cut it apart to liberate the grey plastic diverter. Old spout with new diverter works like new, like a pro did this job

Here is my prompt. Suggestions are welcomed. Gemini vs copilot vs other? LLM model? Agent mode? Tips?
Thank you in advance.
I need to find a vacation rental for next summer. Iβm going to try ms copilot and google Gemini. There are ~15 requirements. Letβs see how this goes. I feel itβs what the tools should be good at.

03.08.2025 15:23 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0A residential circuit breaker panel. Tiny switches are adjacent to 3 breakers. The switches are attached to white metal strips. The strips are held in place with 3M Command Hooks. The wires are held in place with blue masking tape. The breakers have red flags attached to the levers so the motion activated camera will detect a trip. The tiny switches make it tough to access the lever and so there is a wire loop pull handle that can be used to reset the breaker
Friend says 3 circuit breakers trip at the same time. Randomly. I dont see a reason so Iβm going to monitor them. (a) I installed a security camera that lets me see the breakers & sends movement notifications. And (b) I affixed tiny switches which trigger an audible alarm when a breaker trips. Crude
