Authentication failure Github Copilot CLI

Body

I have access to Copilot CLI through my organization.

When trying to authenticate, I get the following error:
~ ➤ github-copilot-cli auth
Copy this code: 19F2-8074

Then go to https://github.com/login/device, paste the code in and approve the access.
Failed to authenticate: You do not have access to GitHub Copilot CLI. Please join the waitlist at https://githubnext.com/projects/copilot-cli/., Unable to verify waitlist access.

This is a repeated error. I tried the suggested solution from #54611, and deleted the ~/.copilot-cli-access-token, but no ~/.copilot-cli-copilot-token is created when trying to authenticate and the error persists in following attempts.

The diagnostic returns this:
github-copilot-cli diagnostic
✖ ❌ Waitlist access check. Failed to authenticate: You do not have access to GitHub Copilot CLI. Please join the waitlist at https://githubnext.com/projects/copilot-cli/., Unable to verify waitlist access.
✖ ❌ Copilot access check. No copilot token found.`

Any other suggestions for troubleshooting this?

Have the same issue now. Is there a solution?

I have a similar issue with Pycharm and Phpstorm latest IDEs. I can't login at all. It keeps saying Requesting Device Code all the time.

Same problem here. Removing the .xx files doesn't help. On a Mac OSX, Sonoma. Installed using npm.

I have the same problem. We also have an organizational account, and we turned on CLI in the organization settings.

Same issue.
Organization copilot, cli enabled in organization, but auth stubbornly suggests to sign up for the waitlist.
Running in Manjaro, installed from AUR package.

Not sure why Github haven't answered this, but GitHub Copilot in the CLI and GitHub Copilot for CLI are different projects.

The tool y''all are installing is the GitHub Next GitHub Copilot for CLI (which seems to have a waitlist you can't sign up for) whereas the option for origanisations is the gh cli extension GitHub Copilot in the CLI
