Overview
To maintain high code quality while using AI tools like GitHub Copilot, teams must combine automation with clear standards and human oversight.
Best Practices
- Review AI suggestions carefully: Never auto-accept without understanding
- Apply project-specific linting and formatting rules
- Use automated testing and CI pipelines to catch regressions
- Write prompts clearly to get more accurate output
- Refactor AI-generated code to align with architectural patterns
Human Responsibility
AI can accelerate development but cannot replace judgment. Code quality depends on context, goals, and maintainability—all areas where humans are essential.
