SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill allows you to dynamically change the AI model and CLI type for your agents without restarting the entire system, enabling flexible and efficient AI agent management.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Live Agent Switching: Change the CLI type (e.g., Claude, Codex) and model (e.g., Sonnet, Opus) of individual agents or all agents simultaneously.
  • Thinking Mode Control: Enable or disable the "Thinking" mode for agents, which affects token usage and output verbosity.
  • Use Case: During a complex coding task, you might switch an agent from a faster, cheaper model like Sonnet to a more powerful one like Opus for a critical sub-task, then switch it back to save costs.

Quick Start

Use the shogun model switch skill to change ashigaru1 to the Opus model.

FAQPage Schema
How do I switch AI agent models and CLI types without restarting the system?

Control the Thinking mode by executing scripts that update agent configuration files, which manages thinking token limits and output verbosity dynamically for active AI agents.

Can I switch an individual agent from Sonnet to Opus during a complex coding task?

Yes, you can switch individual agents or all agents simultaneously from models like Sonnet to Opus for critical sub-tasks, then switch them back to save costs during live execution.

Does dynamic agent model switching work with Claude, Codex, Copilot, and Kimi CLIs?

Dynamic agent model switching supports Claude, Codex, Copilot, and Kimi agents by managing CLI type, model selection, and thinking token limits through script execution and configuration file updates.

What are the limitations of live switching AI agent configurations?

Live switching AI agent configurations requires restarting individual agent processes to apply changes, meaning active tasks may experience brief interruptions during the model or CLI type transition.
