Is GitHub Copilot down?

Right now, GitHub Copilot appears to be operational. GitHub Copilot looks healthy. The official status page reports all systems operational and our independent checks are passing.

Yes — this page is a live GitHub Copilot down detector. It combines GitHub Copilot's official status feed, our own independent reachability check, first-party user reports, and the AI dependency graph, then shows a confidence level so you can tell a real outage from a local glitch. GitHub Copilot is currently operational. We only show signals we can actually verify — never invented report totals.

No active GitHub Copilot outage is detected right now — it appears operational. For past incidents and dated outage recaps, see GitHub Copilot's status history below.

GitHub Copilot is currently operational. Server status and API status aren't always the same — the GitHub Copilot API can fail while the web app works, or vice-versa. The capability panel on this page breaks status down by surface (API, app, and any image/voice features) so you can see exactly which part is affected. GitHub Copilot depends on OpenAI and Anthropic, so an incident there can cascade to GitHub Copilot and other AI tools at the same time.

Check the API row in the capability panel above — GitHub Copilot is currently operational overall, but the API can carry its own status. For developers, "GitHub API status" problems usually surface here first, because we read GitHub's own status feed and watch the API surface directly. GitHub Copilot depends on OpenAI and Anthropic, so an incident there can cascade to GitHub Copilot and other AI tools at the same time.

Common causes are an upstream provider incident, API rate limits during peak demand, a regional CDN issue, or maintenance. GitHub Copilot is currently operational. We show the official status, our independent check, and a confidence level so you can see which signals point to a real problem. GitHub Copilot depends on OpenAI and Anthropic, so an incident there can cascade to GitHub Copilot and other AI tools at the same time.

We check GitHub Copilot from our own servers, independent of your device or network, and combine that with GitHub's official feed and user reports. If our independent check reaches GitHub Copilot but you can't, the problem is most likely local — try a different network, disable a VPN/extensions, or clear your cache. If our check and the official status both show problems, GitHub Copilot is down for everyone.

AIDownCheck runs an independent reachability check from our own servers, separate from GitHub Copilot's official status page. If our check passes but you still can't connect, the problem is more likely local — try a different network, clear your cookies, disable VPN/extensions, or use a different browser. If our check is failing too, it's more likely GitHub Copilot's side.

Good alternatives include Cursor, Windsurf, Claude. We track their live status too, so you can switch to one that's currently operational.

GitHub Copilot's official status page is at https://www.githubstatus.com. AIDownCheck reads it automatically and combines it with our own checks — so you get the answer without juggling tabs.
