GOAL
The developer wanted to know how to change the default model used by the Pi coding agent.
- +0Prompt · +0How do I change my default model in Pi settings?
- +0mAgent did · +0mRead Pi's docs on custom models, README, and settings to find where default model configuration lives
- +1mOutcome · +1mAnswered: use Ctrl+L or /model for interactive switching, or set defaultProvider/defaultModel in ~/.pi/agent/settings.json or .pi/settings.json for a persistent default
VERDICT
Next time I'd just ask directly where the settings file lives instead of letting it read through the docs and README first. No corrections were needed here, it just took a bit of doc-reading to get to the answer.
