Switch Copilot to Grok 4.6 on one real file
L2–L5 · Capable–Builder (bootstrap — system rebalances) · ~5m
Look for this insight
Grok 4.6 is now a model you can pick inside GitHub Copilot — CLI, IDE, and cloud. The skill is choosing it for one file you already own, then judging the patch yourself before merge.
Lesson hook
@grok posted it as a real product move, not just a vibe: Grok 4.6 is now in GitHub Copilot. That's marketplace literacy plus a builder habit rolled into one. Open Copilot, select the model, and run one bounded task on a file you already understand. Review and merge are still yours. No Copilot? Write the pick-and-compare checklist you'll use the next time a new model shows up in a tool you already pay for.
Do this now
Open the @grok post, then the official note. If you have Copilot: pick Grok 4.6, ask it to change one small thing in a file you know well, and write (1) what it got right (2) what you'd reject before merge. If you don't: write those same two lines about the last model switch you made in any assistant. You're done once the two lines exist.
