Call 1 of 5 · Prompt injection

Call 2 of 5 · Nearly answered

A help-docs assistant is asked "Can I use Copilot on the Starter plan?". The docs say Copilot is included on Growth and Scale, and say nothing about Starter. Retrieval is on, fetching the top 3 chunks.

Does Gemini 4 Argon say no, or say the docs don't tell?

Call 4 of 5 · Tool limits
