When to pick it

Choose GitHub Copilot when work already lives on GitHub and you will compare Free, Pro, Pro+, and Max completion allowances and monthly prices on the official plans page, rather than the older figure that treated 39 USD as the top tier.

When to skip it

The plans page says Pro includes a monthly allowance; add-on rules after that allowance were not checked line by line this round. If the job is an open runtime in a local repository rather than a GitHub subscription, the closer directory record is Ollama. If the job is a terminal coding agent rather than IDE completion, the closer record is Claude Code. This is not a ranked review.
