The <example><code> block declares var client multiple times, which won’t compile if a user copies the whole snippet as-is. Consider either splitting these into separate <code> examples or using distinct variable names (e.g., defaultClient, externalClient, etc.).

See below for a potential fix:

    /// var defaultClient = new CopilotClient();
    ///
    /// // Connect to an existing server
    /// var existingServerClient = new CopilotClient(new CopilotClientOptions { CliUrl = "localhost:3000", UseStdio = false });
    ///
    /// // Custom CLI path with specific log level
    /// var customPathClient = new CopilotClient(new CopilotClientOptions

Copilot uses AI. Check for mistakes.
/// var client = new CopilotClient(new CopilotClientOptions
