# GitHub Universe 2026: Evolving every layer of the stack

**[GitHub Blog](https://daily.dev/sources/ghblog)** · 7 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

GitHub announced a set of new Copilot products and infrastructure upgrades at GitHub Universe 2026. The GitHub Copilot app unifies agent work across projects, specs, and design in one surface. Copilot Fusion orchestrates multiple models, with 'Fusion Max' scoring within two points of 'Opus 5.5 Max' at half the cost and 40% less time per task. Copilot projects run parallel agent sessions across repos, and session continuity keeps a cloud agent session synced across the GitHub app, VS Code, CLI, and web. Copilot code review Max posted the highest F1 score on ReviewBench for high-severity issues. GitHub Enterprise customers can now use all Copilot features without a separate subscription, paying for the AI credits they use. Infrastructure additions this year include 4 million CPU cores, 160 PB of storage, and 50 Tb/s network capacity, alongside a multi-region Azure migration expected to finish early next year.

## Questions this post answers

### What is Copilot Fusion and how does its performance compare to other coding models?

Copilot Fusion is a multi-model orchestration feature that evaluates what a task needs across reasoning, code generation, debugging, and tool use, then picks how to execute across one or more models. In the Artificial Analysis Coding Agent Index, its 'Fusion Max' configuration scored within two points of 'Opus 5.5 Max' while costing half as much and taking 40% less time per task.

_Developers picking a coding model for cost and speed can track benchmark comparisons like this on daily.dev._

### Do GitHub Enterprise customers need a separate subscription for Copilot features?

No, GitHub Enterprise customers can use all Copilot features, including the GitHub Copilot app, code review, and automations, without buying a separate subscription. Instead, they pay for the AI credits they use. This is available through GitHub Sales immediately, with self-serve access coming later; existing Copilot Business and Copilot Enterprise customers can keep their current plans or switch when ready.

_Teams budgeting for AI coding tools can follow pricing changes like this on daily.dev._

### What is session continuity in the GitHub Copilot app?

Session continuity lets a cloud agent session keep running and be followed across the GitHub app, VS Code, the CLI, and the web. A developer can start a task from their phone at standup, steer it from VS Code at their desk, and check progress from github.com at lunch, since the agent keeps working in the cloud via a multi-model harness.

_Developers juggling agent sessions across devices can keep up with features like this on daily.dev._
