Complete the policy evidence
Eight gates remain. Begin with the exact scope, explicit model state, delegated default, and current exclusion list.
A passing checklist does not prove model access for every user or authorize repository, tool, merge, deployment, data, or spend actions.

Copilot model policy questions
No. It runs in the browser and does not inspect an enterprise, read settings, change a model policy, assign a team, or collect credentials.
Not by itself. It means the model has no explicit setting at that scope and inherits the current default-availability policy if the model is eligible.
No. The model must be unconfigured and eligible. GitHub documents exclusions for pre-GA, specified open-weight, data-retention, data-residency, and FedRAMP cases.
Live settings, scope, eligibility, pilot and denied-user tests, client checks, separate action controls, monitoring, an owner, and tested rollback must agree.
No. It only records policy readiness. Repository, data, tools, generated code, merge, deployment, spending, and human review require separate approval.
