## Summary

GitHub says Copilot Fusion is now generally available. Instead of choosing a model for each task, users select Fusion Standard, High, or Max, and Copilot routes and orchestrates models as needed. In an Artificial Analysis Coding Agent Index test, Fusion Max scored 60, within two points of Claude Code with Opus 5.5 Max, at about half the average API cost per task.

## Why it matters

The post explains how Copilot Fusion chooses and combines models per task, showing a workflow developers can weigh against manually picking a model.
