GitHub is shutting down Spark and Models, directing developers to GitHub Copilot
As of 4 August 2026, GitHub stopped new user registrations and the creation of new applications in Spark; existing applications can be exported until 31 August 2026. The GitHub Models inference service for the llm() function shut down on 30 July 2026; applications that do not use it continue to work.
Anyone with applications created in GitHub Spark must export them by 31 August 2026 and, if they use the llm() function, arrange their own API key and model provider; otherwise, the AI features will stop working.
