GitHub Copilot code review will start consuming GitHub Actions minutes

GitHub will make Copilot code reviews consume GitHub Actions minutes starting June 1, 2026. Private-repo reviews use plan entitlements, with overages billed at standard Actions rates; public repos stay free. The change covers Copilot Pro, Pro+, Business, and Enterprise, including direct org billing for unlicensed users.

Why it matters: Official GitHub billing change for Copilot code review hits CI quotas and org invoices; HKR-H/K/R all pass, but it is a pricing rule, not a capability release, so it sits low in 72–77.
