Model Config (Exploration)

Model Config (Exploration)

Scope

Use this page when:

  • Exploring future model selection + auth profile ideas

This document captures ideas for future model configuration. It is not a shipping spec. For current behavior, see:

Motivation

Operators want:

  • Multiple auth profiles per provider (personal vs work).
  • Simple /model selection with predictable fallbacks.
  • Clear separation between text models and image-capable models.

Possible direction (high level)

  • Keep model selection simple: provider/model with optional aliases.
  • Let providers have multiple auth profiles, with an explicit order.
  • Use a global fallback list so all sessions fail over consistently.
  • Only override image routing when explicitly configured.

Open questions

  • Should profile rotation be per-provider or per-model?
  • How should the UI surface profile selection for a session?
  • What is the safest migration path from legacy config keys?
