GitHub Copilot CLI adds discovery of local Ollama models via /model

Original titleDiscover local models in GitHub Copilot CLI

AISummary

GitHub Copilot CLI version 1.0.94-0 lets users run /model to discover supported models from a running local Ollama instance alongside configured and GitHub Copilot cloud models.

Discovered models are not added automatically; users choose one, review its provider and endpoint, then confirm Add and use for this session or Add without switching, and models must support tool calling and streaming.

Choosing a local model does not enable offline mode or disable GitHub telemetry, and COPILOT_OFFLINE=true remains a separate explicit setting.
