Automatically check the method/function you're working on

Question

Body

Hello,
i am testing Github Co-Pilot in a big VS 2022 mixed vb.net and Csharp project.
So far it's kinda helpfull, but it would be great, if Co-Pilot automatically check the method or function i am working on,
for logical or copy and paste errors. (Multi use of vars because of typo and stuff, like dump errors)
That there is a setting, where you can put like questions, which should be automatically asked once you edited a method or
function and the result should be added as comment in the Code or shown somewhere.
Like an automatically code review.
The background is to identify stupid errors, because you get distracted or something or make better suggestions.
But you can't always ask Co-Pilot to check code, that would take too much time.
I simulated some of these errors and Co-Pilot really finds them, if you ask right and you can react to it.
Is such implementation somehow possible or planned in the future?
That Co-Pilot triggers automatically and can actually add comments if needed and not only suggestions.
I hope i didn't forget anything.
Thank you all.

Hi @qfag-magr ,

Currently, Copilot primarily focuses on generating code suggestions and does not automatically perform comprehensive code reviews or error checks without explicit prompts.

Thanks!

The question is, will it be updated to do so or will this never be part of Copilot?
