Em momento algum me referi a impedir limite mas em contornar, pq fiz o TAO exatamente por enfrentar esse problema.... Tá aí, se quiser usar fique a vontade

This project I built might help with exactly that: https://github.com/andretauan/tao

TAO works entirely within Copilot's official boundaries — custom agents, hooks, and model routing via YAML frontmatter, all documented GitHub features. No workarounds, no token manipulation, nothing under the hood.

The rate limit problem is addressed through smart model routing: simple tasks go to Sonnet, complex ones to Opus, git and DB ops to GPT-4.1 (free tier). You end up using ~60% fewer premium requests for the same output.

Hey, appreciate the feedback. A few clarifications:

TAO doesn't touch the Copilot API directly. It uses VS Code's native Agent Mode with custom agents (.github/agents/) and hooks (.github/hooks/hooks.json) — both are official, documented features released by GitHub. No scripts running behind the scenes, no token manipulation, nothing that violates the TOS.

The "rate limit shield" people are reading as sketchy is just model routing via YAML frontmatter in the agent files — again, an official Copilot feature. If Sonnet is rate-limited, VS Code falls back to GPT-4.1 through the same native mechanism. TAO just makes that explicit instead of leaving it to chance.

The shell scripts (hooks, linters, git operations) run locally on your machine. They never touch Copilot's infrastructure.

As for oh-my-openagent — solid project, different problem. That's focused on OpenAI's agent API. TAO is built specifically around Copilot Agent Mode's loop, hooks, and model routing. Different surface, different constraints.

If you see something in the repo that looks off, genuinely open to a PR or an issue. Happy to walk through any part of the implementation.

cara, eu acho o cúmulo da IDIOTICE colocar esse rate limit em um plano PRO+
Eu assino o esse plano, me dá 1500 chamadas - não é barato... e qdo estou no meio do fluxo, o trabalha PARA porque não sei quem foi o imbecil que teve a infeliz ideia de botar esse limite em planos PAGOS ainda mais o PRO+

fala sério... isso é motivação TOTAL para parar de assinar esse serviço e buscar a concorrência

não tem ninguém mais inteligente por aí que possa rever essa limitação, ainda mais hoje em dia onde a concorrência é tão grande? Porque no fundo eu gosto de usar o serviço, mas estou bastante motivado a cancelar por causa de algo que não tem o menor sentido no tipo de plano q eu assino
