- GitHub Copilot Individual plan changes include pausing new sign-ups for Pro, Pro+, and Student plans to better serve existing customers.
- Usage limits are being tightened; Pro+ offers over 5X the limits of Pro, and limits are now displayed in VS Code and Copilot CLI for transparency.
- Opus models are no longer available in Pro plans, with Opus 4.7 remaining in Pro+, while Opus 4.5 and 4.6 will be removed from Pro+.
- Usage limits are based on token consumption and model multipliers, with session and weekly limits to manage service reliability and costs.
- Suggestions to avoid hitting limits include using models with smaller multipliers, upgrading to Pro+, using plan mode, and reducing parallel workflows.
- These changes address increased compute demands from agentic workflows and aim to ensure a predictable experience, with refund options for affected users in April.
