Research direction

The issue is a configuration error in a GitHub Actions workflow. The workflow file is at .github/workflows/daily-code-metrics.md. The error indicates an invalid model name for the Copilot engine. Check the workflow's frontmatter for the 'model' setting and compare it with GitHub Copilot's supported models documentation. The fix involves updating the model to a valid one, such as 'gpt-4', in the YAML frontmatter. Verify the fix by checking the workflow run after the change.

Description

agentic-workflows
Workflow Failure

Workflow: Daily Code Metrics and Trend Tracking Agent
Branch: main
Run: https://github.com/github/gh-aw/actions/runs/35903479429

[!WARNING]
Invalid or Unsupported Model: The agent failed because the configured model name is invalid, unknown, or unavailable for this engine/account.

This is a configuration issue, not a transient error — retrying will not help.

How to fix this

Specify a valid model for the selected engine in the workflow frontmatter:

---
engine: copilot
model: gpt-5-mini
---

To find valid models, check your engine/provider documentation (for Copilot see supported models).

If the error text is No model available. Check policy enablement under GitHub Settings > Copilot, the model is not disabled in the workflow but by Copilot policy. Enable the model under GitHub Settings > Copilot > Policies for the org/repo, or pick a model that is already enabled. This can also be triggered by a subagent (task tool) dispatch requesting a model that the policy does not allow, even when the main agent's model is enabled.

[!WARNING]
Engine Failure: The copilot engine terminated unexpectedly.

Last agent output:

400 The requested model is not supported.
