Can we use BYOK in Copilot Chat Free | Pro | Pro+?

I think it's currently in public preview for Enterprise users only, right?

WTF. Now that they are basically expelling us from the product, they could at least unlock this for free, so we can continue using the harness using our own keys.

I'm experimenting with Cline, and it feels nice, but I've been a VSCode user for years and I was really used with the diff reviews / approve / reject flow from Copilot chat.

Indeed, having AI credits that expire every month is non-sense.

I've been experimenting with caveman mode to reduce output tokens already. But I can still see it producing a ton of thinking tokens throughout the process. Is there a way to simplify that process? I mean that train of thought seems to have a lot of verbal boilerplate that seems unnecessary. Because I believe we'll be charged for those input / output thinking tokens right? Caveman seems to only work for the final output it gives you, but so far I was not able to change the thinking process. Has anyone tried it?
