Random: are you personally paying for Claude Code or is it paid by you employer?

My employer only pays for GitHub copilot extension

GitHub Copilot CLI lets you use all these models (unless your employer disables them.

Disclosure: work at Msft

Used Claude through copilot for so long before switching to CC. Even for the same model the difference is shocking. Copilot’s harness and the underlying Claude models are not well-matched compared to the vertically-integrated Claude Code harness.

Disclosure: have to use them via copilot at work. Be glad I don’t write code for nuclear plants. Why does it have to be so hard. Doubly so in JetBrains ides but I’ve a feeling that’s on both of you rather than just you personally. But I still resent you now.

Both. Employer pays for work max 20x, i pay for a personal 10x for my side projects and personal stuff.
