13+
### Week 1 Fact-Check Session (Feb 23, 2026)
14+
**PRs Reviewed:** #29 (JetBrains), #30 (.agent.md), #28 (Outlook)
15+
16+
**Key Accuracy Patterns Identified:**
17+
1. **Licensing claims require official documentation verification** — Found that Microsoft 365 Business Basic is NOT eligible for Outlook Copilot (common mistake). Always cross-reference Microsoft Learn and official pricing pages for licensing tiers.
18+
2. **Free plan details change frequently** — GitHub Copilot Free plan launched Dec 2024. The 2,000 completions/50 chat limits were accurate as of 2025. Must verify against current GitHub Copilot pricing page and changelog annually.
19+
3. **Product naming consistency matters** — Articles correctly use "GitHub Copilot" (not "Github"), "Microsoft 365 Copilot" (not "M365 Copilot"). The naming is consistent across all three PRs.
20+
4. **Frontmatter validation** — All three articles had correct publishedDate, category, difficulty, and series metadata. Frontmatter format is well-enforced.
21+
5. **Tool file locations are documented**`.agent.md` file paths (.github/agents/, ~/.copilot/agents/, .github-private/agents/) are all verifiable in official GitHub docs and are consistently used.
22+
23+
**Fact-Checking Techniques That Worked:**
24+
- Web search for "2025" in product claims to ensure currency (e.g., "GitHub Copilot free plan 2025", "Microsoft Copilot Outlook features 2025")
25+
- Official sources prioritized: GitHub Docs, Microsoft Learn, JetBrains Marketplace, GitHub Blog changelog
26+
- Cross-referencing licensing claims with multiple sources (sometimes sources disagree; official Microsoft docs trump third-party summaries)
27+
- Syntax verification of code examples by reading them carefully (all three articles had correct syntax)
28+
29+
**Sources Used:**
30+
- GitHub Docs: Copilot feature matrix, custom agents configuration, .agent.md file format
31+
- Microsoft Learn: License Options for Microsoft 365 Copilot
32+
- JetBrains Marketplace: GitHub Copilot plugin page and compatibility list
33+
- GitHub Blog changelog: Free plan announcement (Dec 2024), agent features, MCP support rollouts
34+
- Microsoft 365 Product Pricing Page: Copilot licensing tiers and add-on requirements
35+
36+
**Accuracy Rate:** 2/3 articles approved as-is; 1/3 (PR #28) required minor corrections to licensing claim (removal of ineligible Business Basic tier).

### 🔄 PR #28: "Microsoft Copilot in Outlook"
49+
**Verdict:** CORRECTIONS NEEDED — One factual error in licensing section.
50+
51+
**Issue Found:**
52+
53+
**Location:** Section "1. Check Your Subscription and License"
54+
55+
**Problem:**
56+
> "You'll need an eligible **Microsoft 365 subscription** (Business Standard, Business Premium, **Business Basic**, or Apps for business/enterprise)"
57+
58+
**Correction:**
59+
Per Microsoft's current 2025 licensing documentation, **Business Basic is NOT an eligible subscription tier** for Outlook Copilot.
60+
61+
Eligible plans:
62+
- ✅ Business Standard
63+
- ✅ Business Premium
64+
- ✅ Apps for Business (with add-on)
65+
- ✅ Enterprise plans
66+
67+
**Action Required:** Remove "Business Basic" from the list.
68+
69+
**Optional Improvement:** Clarify upfront that Copilot is a separate add-on license (currently mentioned later but not prominent in licensing section).
70+
71+
**Other Content:** All features (summarize, draft, prioritization, action items, meeting prep) verified as accurate. Grammar and spelling clean.
72+
73+
**Ready for publication:** 2026-03-06 (once corrections are made)

## Fact-Checking Methodology
90+
91+
### Sources Relied Upon
92+
1. **GitHub Official Docs**: Feature matrix, custom agents spec, .agent.md format
93+
2. **Microsoft Learn**: License Options for Microsoft 365 Copilot (primary source for licensing)
94+
3. **JetBrains Marketplace**: GitHub Copilot plugin compatibility list
95+

96+
5. **Product Pricing Pages**: GitHub Copilot plans, Microsoft 365 Copilot licensing tiers
97+
98+
### Key Verification Steps
99+
- Searched for product claims with "2025" to ensure currency (e.g., "GitHub Copilot free plan 2025")
100+
- Cross-referenced licensing against multiple sources; official Microsoft docs prioritized over summaries
101+
- Verified IDE support lists against official marketplace
102+
- Validated code examples for syntactic correctness
103+
- Checked free plan limits against GitHub's official pricing page
104+
- Confirmed file paths and formats against GitHub documentation
105+
106+

107+
108+
## Recommendations for Future Articles
109+
110+
1. **Licensing Claims:** Always verify against official Microsoft Learn and GitHub Docs licensing pages. Licensing tiers change annually and are a common source of errors.
111+
2. **Free Plan Details:** Check GitHub Copilot Free plan limits annually (launched Dec 2024; may have changes in 2026+).
112+
3. **Product Naming:** Maintain consistency with official naming:
113+
- ✅ "GitHub Copilot" (not "Github")
114+
- ✅ "Microsoft 365 Copilot" (not "M365 Copilot")
115+
- ✅ "Microsoft Copilot in Outlook" (exact product name)
116+
4. **IDE Support:** Reference JetBrains Marketplace for current IDE support list (changes with plugin updates).
117+
5. **File Paths:** Verify against official GitHub Docs for custom agent and instruction file locations.
