GPT-6.1 Sol now available in GitHub Copilot
OpenAI's GPT-6.1 Sol model is now generally available in GitHub Copilot, enabling agentic coding and terminal workflows with improved multistep reasoning capabilities.
GPT-6.1 Sol, the latest model from OpenAI, is now generally available and rolling out in GitHub Copilot. You can use it for agentic coding and terminal workflows with strong multistep coding performance and efficient token use. In early testing, it reliably completed tasks while using noticeably fewer tokens and steps than earlier models in the GPT-6 and GPT-5.6 families.
This model is billed at provider list pricing under usage-based billing. See Models and pricing for GitHub Copilot for details.
