This is a GitHub Copilot Extension that provides a way to interact with GitHub Models, directly in Copilot Chat.
Note
Copilot Extensions are in public beta and GitHub Models are in limited public beta. They may be subject to change. To request access to GitHub Models, join the waitlist.
You can ask it things like "what models are available?" or "which model should I use for my use-case?". You can also ask it to execute a basic prompt using a particular model.
