Kimi K2.7 is now available in GitHub Copilot 🚀

[ebndev]

Kimi K2.7, an open-weight model, is now generally available in GitHub Copilot. This is the first open-weight model offered as a selectable option in the Copilot model picker, giving you more choice and a lower-cost option for your coding workflows.

Kimi K2.7 is hosted by GitHub on Microsoft Azure.

This model is billed at provider list pricing under usage-based billing. See GitHub Copilot's pricing for models and requests for details.

Availability in GitHub Copilot

Kimi K2.7 is beginning to roll out to Copilot Pro, Pro+, and Max plans. You'll be able to select the model in the model picker in Visual Studio Code. Rollout will be gradual and we'll continue to monitor the model's quality and performance.

We'll expand to Copilot Business, Enterprise, and additional surfaces over the coming weeks. Check back soon if you don't see it yet.

Enabling access for Copilot Business and Copilot Enterprise

Kimi K2.7 is off by default for Copilot Business and Copilot Enterprise. Plan administrators must enable the Kimi K2.7 policy in Copilot settings before anyone in their organization can select it. If the policy is left off, the model stays unavailable to that organization.

We recommend administrators review open-weight models against their own security, compliance, and data-governance requirements before enabling them.

Just a call out that the below changelog comes here
https://github.blog/changelog/2026-08-06-kimi-k3-is-now-available-in-github-copilot/

With that in mind, is the kimi3 model using the US-Server only private endpoints? We're also interested to know if fireworks may end up routing copilot requests to moonshot AI's servers at its own discretion? Looking for confirmation that the data protections are also in place for our enterprise.

Also here because the K3 announcement links here.

Is it just me, or does K3-through-GHCP in VS Code almost always end up in an infinite text-loop, producing the same text output over and over, and running the same commands over and over? Out of about 10 attempts based on inputs of different natures, that happened for about 8 of them.

It also bills you for that infinite loop, so you really don't want to leave this one unattended.
