I am also getting the same 403 error from Gitbash on my windows machine.

Looks like this feature needs to be enabled in Copilot feature settings page.

Hi folks! As @TeplrGuy pointed out, this error means that your organization needs to enable the "Copilot CLI" policy on the Copilot feature settings page. We have an internal action item to make the message clearer, stay tuned for an update on that!

@RyanHecht Hi RyanHecht, I enable the policy like 30 minutes ago, but I still can't use the CLI and still got the same error. It's takes time for the policy to take effect? I logged in again, just in case, but got the same.

Same problem and the CLI policy was enabled from the beginning of my account
× Model call failed: "401 401 unauthorized: Personal Access Token does not have Copilot Requests permission\n"

× Execution failed: 401 401 unauthorized: Personal Access Token does not have Copilot Requests permission

We've improved the error message to make this clearer in https://github.com/github/copilot-cli/releases/tag/v0.0.328!

Getting a × You are not authorized to use this Copilot feature, it requires an enterprise or organization policy to be enabled. error even after enabling the GitHub CLI policy - any tips?
