Enforcing new limits and retiring Opus 4.6 Fast from Copilot Pro+

7 hours ago

GitHub Copilot is updating limits due to high usage patterns, affecting service reliability and model capacity, to ensure a fast, reliable experience for all users.
Two types of limits will be rolled out: overall service reliability limits (requiring wait time) and specific model family limits (allowing switching to alternative models or using Auto mode).
Users are advised to distribute requests evenly over time and consider upgrading plans for higher limits, with ongoing efforts to explore increased capacity.
Opus 4.6 Fast is being retired for Copilot Pro+ users to streamline offerings and improve reliability, with Opus 4.6 recommended as an alternative model.
