Github Copilot model selector shows unauthorized models and occasionally hides available ones #23338

Closed as not planned

Description

I've been using the GitHub Copilot integration and noticed an inconsistent bug with the model selection dropdown.

First, the list frequently displays models that my account doesn't have access to (such as Opus). When I select one of these unauthorized models, I naturally cannot use it, which creates a confusing user experience.

Second, the opposite issue occurs: sometimes the models that I should have access to completely disappear from the list. This makes it difficult to know which models are actually available to me at any given time.

Expected Behavior:
I expect the model selector to accurately reflect my account's current permissions. It should filter out models I cannot use to prevent dead ends, and it should consistently load and display all the models I am authorized to use without them randomly dropping off the list.

OpenCode version

1.4.3

Steps to reproduce

1.Open the GitHub Copilot model selector in the IDE/CLI.

2.Scroll through the available models.

3.Observe that unauthorized models (e.g., Opus4.7) are listed. Selecting them results in a failure to generate code.

4.Check the list periodically; notice that standard, accessible models are sometimes randomly missing from the dropdown.

    Observed on Ubuntu (WSL) as well on OpenCode version 1.4.17 (not a version-specific issue).

    Same here. But you can use the search text input to display/select the missing ones 😅
