Preflight Checklist

  • I have searched existing requests and this feature hasn't been requested yet
  • This is a single feature request (not multiple features)

Problem Statement

In the CLI I can use opusplan with --model opusplan or /model opusplan. However, in Claude Code Desktop I don’t see this feature. I have to switch models manually.

Proposed Solution

Queria que tivesse no seletor de modelos ou em algum recurso a opção de selecionar opusplan de modo a alterar para o Opus automaticamente quando estiver no modo plan, e Sonnet para outras coisas.

Alternative Solutions

I wish there were an option in the model selector, or some other feature, to choose opusplan so it would automatically switch to Opus when in Plan mode and use Sonnet for everything else.

TL;DR

The most likely fix is to add an option in the model selector of Claude Code Desktop to choose opusplan, allowing automatic switching to Opus when in Plan mode.

Guidance

  • Review the existing model selector code in Claude Code Desktop to determine the best way to integrate the opusplan option.
  • Consider adding a new feature or modifying an existing one to allow users to select opusplan and automatically switch models based on the mode.
  • Investigate how the CLI implementation of --model opusplan or /model opusplan can be replicated in the desktop application.
  • Evaluate the potential impact on productivity and user experience when implementing this feature.

Notes

The solution may require modifications to the existing codebase and user interface of Claude Code Desktop, and may involve collaborating with the development team to ensure a seamless integration.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Add a custom script or plugin to Claude Code Desktop that allows users to select opusplan and automatically switch models, until a native solution is implemented. This will provide a temporary fix to improve productivity.
