Research direction
Start with the linked Sentry issue and its anonymous:6 stack entry, then search the website's JavaScript paths for the failing `copy` reference in the exercism-js flow. Trace the triggering action and reproduce the ReferenceError locally; done means the error no longer occurs and a regression test or documented reproduction verifies the fix.
