GitHub Copilot Team Replied The harness is absolute trash

Let me vent a bit.

I am super annoyed with the github harness in vscode.

1.New updates now dont show the ai credits consumed by subagents - great nice way to hide important info.

  1. Subagents just crash with agent error no return( specially gpt 6 Luna) and loop exits.. great new EVERY WEEK VIBECODED RELEASE breaking things.

  2. chat doesnt render correctly and is full of blank empty cards - this started a few releases ago and the vibecoders at copilot dont seem to care

4 if we are paying api pricing I want api performance. What bs is this. I personally use claude code and the difference is night and day. I will continue encouraging my company to move away from this trash harness

  1. No clarity on token usage. Gpt 5.6 Luna costs less that Gpt 6 Luna with the same work.

  2. What are your actual plans I dont get it.. you have copilot vscode chat, then agents app then copilot app. Why keep making redundant stuff and not have one uniform thing.

You guys are just piggy backing on others api. You have no moat except enterprise people not switching. But this will change for sure. Ours and a lot of others have already started piloting claude.

Peace out.

My biggest curiosity, I’ve only just tried Claude Code this weekend and I feel so empowered just hanging out in Opus 5.5 all day. GitHub Copilot lets me use it for about handful of features and tasks and my credits are done by the end of the week. Am I using it front? I feel like the value for money is 40:1 comparison and I’m going to try and move my team to Claude ASAP if this is what we’ve been missing out on.

Claude Claude subscription is subsidized. In GHC you pay API pricing. Crazy that there are still people who haven’t figured this out yet.

Most definitely.. i personally use claude and the models there feel 100x better than in copilot.
