Explanation

The /optimize slash command in Visual Studio (powered by GitHub Copilot) analyzes selected code and suggests ways to improve its runtime performance - for example, recommending more efficient algorithms, reducing unnecessary iterations, or restructuring logic to lower time/space complexity. It does not reformat code (that's a formatter's job), summarize docs, or translate code to another language.
