Grok 4.7 is rolling out in GitHub Copilot, billed at provider list pricing

Available in the model picker across VS Code, Visual Studio, Copilot CLI, the cloud agent, JetBrains, Xcode and Eclipse, for Pro, Pro+, Max, Business and Enterprise.3 It is billed at provider list pricing under usage-based billing, and GitHub says the rollout is gradual, so absence from your picker is expected rather than a fault. We have not evaluated it, and Cursor logged two separate Grok degradations inside the same window.610

Relevant to: Copilot Business and Enterprise admins, whose default-enablement policy turns new models on unless they opted out.

What the verdict meansAvailable, but early — bugs, limits or price.
The two Cursor incidents, and what they do not prove

Cursor's status page records 0.6 hours of degraded performance on Grok models opening at 01:07 UTC, and 0.4 hours on Grok 4.6 the previous morning. Both are rated minor, and both affected failed or retried requests in Automations, Cloud Agents, the CLI and the IDE. Other models were unaffected in each case.

Those were Cursor's own routing, and no vendor has connected them to Copilot's 4.7 rollout — the two products buy from xAI separately. A new model arriving on a provider path that degraded twice in a day can be worth a week of someone else's testing, which is the whole of our reasoning here.
