DeprecationVerifiedAdded Sep 22, 2026
In June, we announced that we are retiring GitHub Models and closed it to new customers. We’re now sharing the timeline for the next step: GitHub Models will be fully retired on July 30, 2026. After that date, GitHub Models, including the playground, model catalog, inference API, and bring your own key (BYOK), will no longer be available to any customer.
