<Accordion title="Live catalog refresh from the Copilot API">

Once the device-login (or env-var) auth path has resolved a GitHub token,

OpenClaw refreshes the model catalog on demand from `${baseUrl}/models`

(the same endpoint VS Code Copilot uses) so the runtime tracks

per-account entitlement and accurate context windows without manifest

churn. Newly published Copilot models become visible without an OpenClaw

upgrade, and context windows reflect the real per-model limits

(e.g. 400k for the gpt-5.x series, 1M for the internal

`claude-opus-*-1m` variants).

The bundled static catalog stays as the visible fallback when discovery

is disabled, the user has no GitHub auth profile, the token-exchange

fails, or the `/models` HTTPS call errors. To opt out and rely entirely

on the static manifest catalog (offline / air-gapped scenarios):

```json5

{

plugins: {

entries: {

"github-copilot": {

config: { discovery: { enabled: false } },

},

},

},

}

Claude model IDs use the Anthropic Messages transport automatically. GPT,

o-series, and Gemini models keep the OpenAI Responses transport. OpenClaw
