  "what": "The incumbent, embedded in VS Code, JetBrains, Visual Studio, Xcode, Neovim and github.com, plus a terminal agent called Copilot CLI and a cloud coding agent that opens pull requests. Model choice spans Claude Haiku, Sonnet and Opus, GPT-5 mini and Gemini, selectable per request.",
  "why": "The safe institutional choice: your employer probably already pays for it, it works in the IDE you already use, and the free tier with 2,000 completions a month is the lowest-friction on-ramp in the whole category.",
  "warn": "Premium requests are the real currency — each agent prompt eats quota, and Pro's $15 of monthly credits goes quickly on Opus-class models. Copilot CLI needs an active subscription and can be disabled by org admins.",
