Curious if anyone else is still experiencing issues after Github reported that the issue has been mitigated.
I tried logging out and reauthing copilot, but I'm still getting the model errors shown above.

@elboboua the incident appears to be resolved on my end now. I just opened a new session, and I can see Opus 4.5 in the model selector again. I switched to it, and it's responding without throwing any errors as it did before.

Claude Opus 4.5 under GH copilot does not work, I switched to gemini and it worked. I have also tried the troubleshooting steps suggested above already with no success.
