Which model does it use? Will this let me select which model to use? I have seen a big difference in the type of code that different models produce, although their prompts may be to blame/credit in part.

I assume you can select whichever one you want (GPT-4o, o3-mini, Claude 3.5, 3.7, 3.7 thinking, Gemini 2.0 Flash, GPT=4.1 and the previews o1, Gemini 2.5 Pro and 04-mini), subject to the pricing multiplicators they announced recently [0].

Edit: From the TFA: Using the agent consumes GitHub Actions minutes and Copilot premium requests, starting from entitlements included with your plan.

At the moment, we're using Claude 3.7 Sonnet - but we're keeping our options open to experiment with other models and potentially bring in a model picker.

Do you at least control the prompt?

In my experience using Claude Sonnet 3.7 in GitHub Copilot extension in VSCode, the model produced hideously verbose code, completely unnecessary stuff. GPT-4.1 was a breath of fresh air.

I was trying to find information on this on the internet and couldn't find any, thanks for providing. Interestingly enough Copilot coding agent on github.com repeatedly could not complete css changes correctly, when I switched to Agent mode in the project IDE with Claude 3.7 it was able to complete it in one round, so I assumed that there was a different model.
