What article on docs.github.com is affected?

https://docs.github.com/en/copilot/concepts/billing/copilot-requests#premium-features

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

On the page is written:

Copilot CLI: Each prompt to Copilot CLI uses one premium request.

Now when picking a model on Copilot CLI, you can pick Haiku (0.33x):

 Select Model

 Choose the AI model to use for Copilot CLI. The selected model will be
 persisted and used for future sessions.

 ❯ 1. Claude Sonnet 4.5 (1x) (default) (current)
   2. Claude Sonnet 4 (1x)
   3. Claude Haiku 4.5 (0.33x)
   4. GPT-5 (1x)
   5. Cancel (Esc)

Is the documentation still valid, or should it work like agent mode now?

Agent mode uses one premium request per user prompt, multiplied by the model's rate.
