GitHub has officially discontinued the GitHub Models service. According to the GitHub Changelog, the retirement was announced for July 30, 2026, after which the related API became unavailable during GitHub Actions runs.
GitHub Models provided models from multiple LLM providers through a single API and playground, allowing users to run prompts using the GitHub API key already configured in GitHub Actions, which was utilized for building automated AI workflows.
