Copilot AI credit telemetry

GitHub's Copilot usage metrics API now exposes daily AI credits consumed per user for organizations and enterprises. Why it matters: Coding-agent adoption needs cost visibility at the same level as access control. Per-user credit telemetry can help teams spot unusual consumption and compare AI spend against useful engineering activity.

Try this: Add the user-level AI credit field to a Copilot usage report, flag outliers, and pair the metric with repository activity or pull-request outcomes before changing access policies.
