Last tested: not yet. Pending is not a zero.
Waiting on the vibe-coding bench: a small multi-page web app from a written spec. No score until that test is published.
Plain-language take
Written from public product information. This is not a test result.
The coding assistant already wired into GitHub, the editor, and the CLI.
Pricing
Freemium · checked 16 October 2026
GitHub lists Free, Pro, Pro+, and Max plans, with usage drawn from GitHub AI Credits. Dollar amounts on the plans page were inconsistent in our 16 Oct 2026 capture, so this listing does not lock a price. See the plans page.
