Copilot in GitHub

Body

I cannot authorize my local Copilot to allow me to use my local LLMs for code work. It is very frustrating. I have spent hours trying to make it work and even paid for a GitHub Copilot subscription as I was told that would solve the problem. It may indeed be required, but something is broken.

I was told to say this:

"LSP statusNotification reports 401 Unauthorized despite Shell reporting monthly_subscriber_quota. Token propagation from IdentityService to node.exe is broken."
