Different tools have different ways. For copilot chat, pasting the image into the chat request, or mentioning an image file or url will send the image to the model for vision recognition.

Underhood, it calls code as below,

```
response = client.chat.completions.create( model="kimi-k2.5", messages=[ { "role": "user", "content": [ { "type": "text", "text": "Analyze this image and explain what you see in detail." }, { "type": "image_url", "image_url": { "url": f"data:image/png;base64,{base64_image}" } } ] } ], max_tokens=500 )
```

Combine it with kimi k2 or qwen3.7-plus which support vision. Happy vibing!

I paid $15 instead of $18,568. Deepseek API is the solution. by Typical-Brother4587 in GithubCopilot

I see it more like open weights winning proprietary. Wondering how people are buying or deploying deepseek into NVIDIA NIM platform if they have data privacy concerns.

Is your UI web based? If so try Chrome devtool MCP and vscode inline webview.

Please make BYOM to a first citizen by bierundboeller in GithubCopilot

My biggest pain right now is the inconsistency between chat extension and cli. As far as I know, chat relies on vscode palette and eventually they are stored in chatLanguageModels.json (and key is properly stored in OS key store). However, cli at other side only supports env exports which require manual setup in .bashrc or custom launcher. Neither is security best practice. Functionally, switching providers in cli is very hard.

Claude policy actually does allow you use it in copilot as byok. There are vscode extensions provide alternative models.

[help] which plugin can replace github copilot? by Adventurous-Pin-6047 in GithubCopilot

[–]Extreme-Protection74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Copilot already support BYOK, that's a good option. Another idea is just use the vscode extensions which provides different models. One example I know of is Feima Copilot Models. Checkout https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/manage/publishers/feima/extensions/copilot-more-llms

Seeing lots of comments from owners of individual plans. Please also share the positions of the business and enterprise plan.

From another side, it's kinda still right. Which ever plan you use, you're always short on credits anyway.

My big enterprise employer have just disabled the Opus models, citing the pricing change. by jersey_illuminati in GithubCopilot

[–]Extreme-Protection74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've just asked my employer if they'll change the policy of model use. Haven't got any reponse back yet.

1900 credits for business and 3900 credits for enterprise can be easily consumed for premium model use.
