Can I use GitHub Copilot or LLM Gateway DevPass with any agent (BYOK)?

GitHub Copilot plans are locked to the provider's own tools; LLM Gateway DevPass plans expose OpenAI-compatible endpoints usable by any agent (BYOK).

What does Req/$1 mean?

Req/$1 is the number of typical coding requests one dollar buys on a plan — computed from the plan’s published budget, the model’s published per-token rates and a typical request shape (roughly 850 input tokens, 49,000 cached tokens, 160 output tokens where the provider publishes no shape). Proxy estimates are marked with ~. A figure marked ≥ is a cache floor: the plan publishes no cached-read rate, so cached tokens bill at the input rate and the real figure is that number or higher.
