Option D is the correct solution because Amazon Q Developer customizations are designed to incorporate organization-approved knowledge and coding guidance without requiring per-project changes. A customization can point Amazon Q Developer to curated internal sources such as approved libraries, coding standards, architectural patterns, and proprietary techniques. This allows the assistant’s suggestions to align with company policies and preferred implementations consistently across teams and repositories.
The key requirement is that the company does not want to make project-level modifications. Options A, B, and C all require adding files or repositories into the project workspace, which directly violates this constraint. They also rely on developer behavior to “use workspace context,” which is harder to enforce and can lead to inconsistent adherence to standards.
With a customization, the organization centrally manages and updates approved resources. This reduces operational overhead because updates to libraries, patterns, or guidelines propagate automatically to developers using the customization, without requiring changes to each project. This is especially valuable for a new team, where consistent enforcement of approved practices is important to reduce compliance risk, security issues, and inconsistent code style.
Additionally, customizations support governance by allowing the company to standardize how Amazon Q Developer responds, ensuring that suggestions reflect approved internal content rather than generic public patterns.
Therefore, Option D best satisfies the requirement for centralized enforcement of approved resources with minimal ongoing management and no project-level modifications.
