Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
The Simple Browser extension currently supports GitHub Copilot integration, which provides helpful context-aware artifacts like DOM targets, affected styles, and element screenshots. This greatly improves the frontend development experience. However, its rendering engine struggles with complex pages, limiting its practical use. Meanwhile, the Edge DevTools extension offers superior page rendering and debugging but does not yet include Copilot integration.

Describe the solution you'd like:
Enable GitHub Copilot integration in the Edge DevTools extension to match the capabilities available in the Simple Browser extension. This would bring AI-assisted contextual support: such as DOM element hints, screenshot previews, and structure awareness into a more robust rendering environment.

Describe alternatives you've considered:

Additional context:

"This synergy between VS Code, GitHub Copilot, and Edge DevTools has the potential to establish a powerful frontend development stack: one that not only streamlines workflows but also encourages developers to adopt Microsoft Edge as their browser of choice for their workstation."
