# Android AI Setup

## Setup: VS Code + GitHub Copilot Extension
### Prerequisites
- VS Code installed and up to date.
- GitHub account with Copilot Enterprise access.

### Install and Sign In (High-Level)
1. Install the GitHub Copilot extension.
2. Sign in with your GitHub account.
3. Confirm Copilot is enabled in VS Code.
4. Run a simple prompt to verify suggestions appear.

### Example Prompt (VS Code)
Open a Kotlin file and add:

```text
// Create a Kotlin data class for a user profile with name and email.
```

### Verification Steps
- Open a Kotlin file and start a small function.
- Confirm inline suggestions appear.
- Open Copilot Chat and ask a short question.

## Android-Specific Guidance
- Ask for Kotlin/Java patterns with small, bounded tasks.
- Request unit tests for services and view models.
- Prefer incremental changes over large rewrites.

### Example Request
"Refactor this repository to reduce duplication. Keep the public API the same and list tests to update."

### Starter Prompts
- "Create a Kotlin data class and mapper for this API response."
- "Write unit tests for this repository using JUnit."
- "Refactor this file to reduce duplication without changing behavior."

## Android Troubleshooting
- If suggestions are missing, confirm sign-in and access.
- If the extension is disabled, check extension settings.
- If responses are blocked, check network or policy constraints.

### Common Setup Gaps
- Copilot access not provisioned for the GitHub account.
- VS Code extension disabled after an update.
- Multiple AI extensions competing for suggestions.
