What part(s) of the article would you like to see updated?

On this page: https://docs.github.com/en/copilot/reference/ai-models/model-comparison

We have a chart of the different models that includes mentions of context. As far as I can tell there is nowhere in the docs that explicitly says the approx max context size for each model. In my case I noticed Anthropic just bumped the max context size for Claude Sonnet 4 to 1M, though I'm not seeing that via Copilot.

Since it seems like the direct context size doesn't always match that via Copilot, we should have official public documentation of the current max context size per AI model.

Additional information

Knowing the max context size is helpful for folks to have a better idea as to how much context could be given to the model to perform a specific task.
