Research direction

Start from the /chat path and inspect where the GPT 5.6 Sol context-window value is displayed or configured. Verify the current 400K value against the linked Copilot billing documentation, then confirm that the interface shows 272K for this model.

Description

The context window should be 272K for GPT 5.6 Sol because that's the threshold between short and long context. Right now it's 400K.
