## The brief

GitHub is extending its HydraFusion research preview to VS Code and the Copilot app. Instead of selecting only a model, the system can choose a single-model, draft-and-escalate or independent-critique workflow. Access depends on the supported Copilot plan and preview settings; GitHub says the research preview remains subject to change.
