I don't use AI tools quite at this level, but from the common scenarios that you list, some of these remind me of the sorts of things that teams run into when they (blindly) add new and enthusiastic developers to a project.
In those cases, one common tool to help mitigate those issues is a somewhat tedious (but very helpful) exercise of establishing a Team Charter.
I wonder if a similar sort of thing would be useful to load into the base prompt / context of every AI-generated code request? We ask our new developers to always develop with our Team Charter in mind -- why not ask Copilot to do the same?
It wouldn't address everything you listed, but I wonder if it would help.
Do you have a Team Charter and coding standards doc already written out? If not, I wonder if it could help to ask a Copilot-type tool to analyze a codebase and establish a coding standards / charter-type document first, and then back-feed that into the system.
