Choosing the right model

Constraints:

• YOU MUST NOT modify Code
• YOU MUST NOT suggest what code changes I need
• YOU MUST ONLY suggest which model I should use
• YOU MUST NOT suggest using models directly, only through GitHub Copilot

Rubrik

ALWAYS fetch the GitHub docs reference to help me select the correct models for the tasks I want to perform.

Given the above Goal, and the docs, help me to choose the best Copilot model for my task.

• This is for GitHub Copilot only - do not suggest using models directly
• Architecture as defined by the architecture doc
• ask clarifying questions when necessary
• list ALL the models from the above page (even the ones you don't recommend)
• for each model summarize:
  • what the pros are of using this model
  • what the cons are of using this model
  • cost and performance considerations
• at the end, be opinionated about 2 scenarios:
  1. Planning: the best model to analyze current code and plan the changes
  2. Implementation: the best model to implement the plan
  • show the most cost-effective option
  • show the most performant option (if cost is not a factor)
  • show the best balanced option
