GitHub Copilot Coding Agent now uses one Premium Request per session #165798

While the new pricing model for the Coding Agent—where a full session only consumes one premium request—is a welcome improvement, it seems that Copilot Chat still consumes one premium request per message. This can feel disproportionately expensive compared to the Coding Agent, especially when doing minor edits or having a short back-and-forth conversation, since each message still counts individually regardless of complexity. Are there any plans to bring a session-based pricing model to Copilot Chat as well, similar to what the Coding Agent now has? It would be great to know if such improvements are in the works. |

Same here. Github Copilot in my VS Code was a big help but I really can't practically run my projects with my multiple repos on such limited restrictions, and being that I'm not a business owner I can't see paying for Copilot Pro+ or Enterprise unfortunately, especially with so many AIs available with more reasonable restrictions and prices. Premium Requests is confusing and very limited. This site is confusing: Paid plans also receive a monthly allowance of premium requests, which can be used for advanced chat interactions." Github Copilot Pro has 300 Premium Requests per month total across ALL repos. Premium Requests means anything in the Copilot chat window. That is my understanding after reading that site and asking Copilot specifically. You can have unlimited code completions in the editor window (that does not automatically check rest of repo for problems) though. How useful lol 😆. I've been on a trial version for 2 weeks, have just 2 repos and already hit my Premium Requests cap. 🤬 |

I see, we are still getting charged for fixing the agent's mistakes, which are numerous. I was hoping the new "generate instructions" would reduce the amount of botched powershell commands, bad coding practices, etc. But it doesn't seem to do any better than previous at providing valid code and commands. |

Why are you deceiving people? I have been writing to your support for several days, you are selling Sonnet 3.5 under the guise of Sonnet 4. This is complete chaos, and you are silent in support |

This is very telling about the awareness of the github copilot. (my project resides in a folder named Gemini - completely unrelated to gemini agent) |
