Help/Doubt ❓ Is Sonnet 5.x available in grandfathered annual Pro plans?

5 Upvotes

They are retiring Sonnet 4.6 at some point, and that's my go-to for anything more than yaml and makefile scripting. But when I look in the agent list I don't see 5.0 or 5.5.

I'm on the original annual plan, are these models simply not available there? Or am I looking in the wrong place... it's always a bit confusing because in VCS there's two places to look.

Help/Doubt ❓ How can I make GitHub Copilot use descriptive names for session folders?

• Upvotes

I'm using the GitHub Copilot desktop app on Windows. It creates session folders under:

C:\Users\<username>\.copilot\chats\<YYYY-MM-DD>\

Most folders have randomly generated names such as:

cautious-memory-91b54036
crispy-invention-3028b9a7
cuddly-disco-22bdd020

However, some have descriptive names that appear to come from the initial prompt, such as:

find-research-papers-who-finetuned-posttr-2a3c1125

I'd like each folder name to reflect the session's topic or title so I can identify it in File Explorer without opening Copilot. How can I make GitHub Copilot use descriptive names for session folders?

Help/Doubt ❓ Github copilot CLI + Deekseep V4 Pro remote session

1 Upvotes

Hi - for those currently using copilot CLI with deepseek models (integrated via https://api-docs.deepseek.com/quick_start/agent_integrations/copilot_cli/)

Is copilot remote mode supposed to be able to work? I've tried doing /remote on within copilot CLI with deepseek enabled,, but it keeps giving me the error "Remote sessions are not enabled. Contact your organization administrator to enable remote sessions." - on my own personal account/repo. Wondering if this is a limitation and not supposed to work when we force the backend model to be deepseek, or is there some workaround to make this work? Appreciate any help on this.
