Gotta say, I've lost all interest in cloud-based AI products. Too many cool features and workflows that I was once excited about that I can't or don't use anymore for a variety of reasons (price hikes, subjectively nerfed, disappeared altogether, replaced,...) for me to even remember. It's tiring. I've set up a small rig, mostly settled on Qwen3.6 and I'm slowly adding features myself. It probably can't compete with…
When will GitHub Copilot support integrating custom models?
I work at GitHub but even then I often use OpenRouter models in the CLI and Copilot App
I am a huge fan of Copilot CLI. It just feels so logical and low-friction to use compared to Claude Code. Having the ability to juggle various models at will is really nice too. ("Plan this using Opus 4.6, let GPT 5.4 verify the plan and give feedback before implementing with Sonnet 4.6"). Unfortunately the June pricing change for Copilot forced me personally as well as my entire department at work to switch to Claud…
Honest question, can you ellaborate? If given the option, I use OpenCode but what do you find in Copilot CLI that makes you prefer it to Claude Code?

Input: $0.95 Cache hit (most important): $0.19 Output: $4.00 This is the same as how much Moonshot charges for it, and it puts it at roughly the price of GPT 5.4 mini, not a bad option. For some context here is a stupid prompt that wastes tokens: "Play a game of tic tac toe against yourself on a 5x5 board, you need 5 in a row to win." It costs $0.006 on Kimi K2.7, and you get to see the whole raw reasoning trace. GPT…
Is GitHub Copilot the best positioned platform for enterprise? They support Claude, GPT, Gemini, and now even open weight models. Larger orgs are paying at API rates anyway so it costs just as much as anywhere else. They have a pretty good agent CLI and SDK, and now a desktop app. They have hosted agents, and you can run their 'Agentic Workflows' in CI. Has their reputation tanked so much that the alternatives get al…
This comes up all the time at work because the vendor management people don’t understand the llm ecosystem and think Claude through copilot is the same as Claude through Claude code.
A simple side by side comparison will show dramatic under performance 3 or 4 times out of five when I’m asked to explain the difference.

For some reasons compilot seems dummer than vscode Claude or vscode codex. I can’t tell what’s the exact reason but it didn’t feel right
Finally an alternative to the big dogs that a company can use. People have been asking for a way to run the Chinese models from a trusted provider. Here GitHub delivered! The performance, if we trust the benchmarks, put it at Sonnet 4.6. Let’s see if it’s worth it with GitHubs pricing.
> People have been asking for a way to run the Chinese models from a trusted provider I'm going to be called a chiller again, but at this point I don't care as it is relevant. Synthetic runs their own models for a reasonable price, GLM5.2 & Kimi K2.7-Code included. Referral link : https://synthetic.new/?referral=kwjqga9QYoUgpZV
Earlier quoted context omitted.
I tried using Zed but with local models it constantly breaks on tool calls. I wanted to like it but the smell of vibing is just too much.
You using models released this year? I hear this complaint a lot, and it's often due to using an old model which is not as good at tool calling as newer models.
