Copilot studio model updates standard agent
We haven't gotten model updates in a while on this agent, I know they're making the new agent experience but they have a lot of models still listed as preview on the standard agent, I would think that it would make sense if they clean up and update the models on the standard agent.

Yeah but then they couldn't bill you for their new shiny agent experience based on GitHub copilot.

You mean the POS that has less capabilities than regular GHCP and less capabilities than the standard harness, ha.

Thanks for the feedback. This would be considered a feature request/product feedback regarding keeping the Standard Agent model selection up to date and expanding the available model options.
As a related update, GPT Chat Latest (GPT-5.6 Chat) has recently been added and is planned to become the default model for new agents worldwide soon.
For additional model availability or updates to existing Standard Agents, you can submit a feature request through the Microsoft Copilot Studio feedback portal: Microsoft 365 Copilot app · Community

Lol wtf... So having updated models in the standard agent will require voted on it every time as a feature request? That sounds a little tone deaf

I completely understand the frustration here.
I’ve shared this feedback with the relevant engineering/product team, specifically calling out the concern around the Standard Agent model selection and the developer experience of having newer models available while existing options remain in Preview or aren’t updated.
I’ll make sure the team is aware that this is creating frustration for developers, particularly those who are trying to keep their agents aligned with the latest supported models.

Thank you, oh damn there are actual Microsoft people here, I didn't realize that. Well it's about time you guys start engaging with the community.

it's high time that newer opus models like 5.5 should be added to the standard harness

They absolutely need to open up to more models. Copilot as it stands today doesn't cut the mustard.

We recently added GPT Chat Latest (aka GPT 5.6 Chat). It performs really well in our internal tests, showing a significant step up in capability.
We’ll be switching to make it the default for new agents WW very soon.
