GitHub ships Project HydraFusion, a multi model coding preview in Copilot CLI

GitHub launched Project HydraFusion as a research preview in the Copilot CLI on September 4, 2026, dynamically orchestrating multiple AI models and picking one of three execution patterns per task. GitHub says it matches or beats Claude Opus 5 on TerminalBench 2.1, DeepSWE and CheckpointBench while optimizing token cost.

Why this matters for founders

Lean engineering teams can trial HydraFusion in the Copilot CLI to route each coding task to the cheapest capable model instead of paying top rates for every call.
