What the skill teaches

A Squad template, copied into gh-aw's .squad folder, that decides which language model each spawned Squad agent uses. Checks run in order and the first match wins: per-agent overrides and a default saved in .squad/config.json, then instructions given in the session, then a model named in the agent's charter, then an automatic choice by task type, with a final fallback model. It covers saving and clearing preferences when the user says things like 'always use' a model, and showing the chosen model when an agent starts.

Capabilities

  • Resolve the model for each spawned agent
  • Save a default model in .squad/config.json
  • Pick a model automatically by task type
