More than interested to try when it comes out. But what about the full fledged Thinking version? |

Put it up on OpenRouter so we can try it, please - and so we can see how much it really costs. |

This is looking great! Would love to try it out and benchmark it in Plotly Studio for data visualization and analytics workflows. Will this be available as an API on Azure or Open Router? Or only integrated in product suites? |

When can we get this in regular Visual Studio? About to dump tooling due to the 20x-30x increase in costs with GitHub Copilot and this is maybe the only thing that would save it. |

Eager to try this - I need a replacement for Claude Haiku 4.5 - and this looks like the sweet spot. When will it be available? I am on the Pro+ and already 2 day has passed 🐌 |

When will MAI be available for Enterprise GitHub Copilot? Why are business/enterprise users not supported as yet and how long will it take before we get it? |

Could it be that "available" just means "for inline code completion", but if never shows up in the models? |

Thanks for bringing MAI-Code-1-Flash to GitHub Copilot. It's great to see more purpose-built coding models being added to the ecosystem. Having efficient lightweight models is especially valuable for quick edits, smaller projects, and reducing overall credit usage. Looking forward to trying it out in VS Code and seeing how it compares with the other available models. It would also be interesting to see future benchmarks and broader availability across additional Copilot surfaces. |

I'd love to hear the line of thinking as to why this was rolled out to individual accounts first vs. business / enterprise. Shouldn't users paying for a premium product have the earliest access? |

May I know how to apply or select it in the agent mode on the web UI? I can't see it on the page of the agent mode. |
