📉 GitHub Copilot: Crippled

• 🛑 A few days ago, mid session, copilot stopped with an ⚠️ error: model not available
• 📤 Turns out, opus was removed from the 💸 copilot pro plan mid session
• 🧪 Since then, I’ve been trying to use the 🤏 smaller Sonnet model with smaller tasks
• 🚫 Today I hit a 📅 weekly rate limit.
• 😒 Lame.
• 🔍 I think I need to find a 💎 reliable service.
• 📱 Working from my phone is the 🎯 critical constraint for me.
• 🔄 The workflow I’ve 💖 enjoyed, the reason I’ve been using Copilot for the 📅 past couple of months, is
  • 1. 📝 Create an 🎫 issue
  • 2. 👤 Assign it to an 🤖 agent
  • 3. 👀 Review the PR when it’s ✅ done working
  • 4. 💬 Leave feedback on the PR for the agent to 🛠️ fix as necessary
  • 5. 🔀 Merge the PR
• 💯 This workflow is 100% from my 🤳 phone. ⏳ Sometimes I have a few minutes nowhere near a 💻 computer and can get 🚀 productive work done with this workflow (check out 🤖 AI Blog for examples).
