What's Wrong?

I set up 12 schedules tasks on my system, always choosing to run on Opus 4.7 1M Max, also i explicitly mention inside the task instructions to only use OPus 4.7 as model, but when running automatically in the night it keeps using Sonnet with very superficial outcome.

What Should Happen?

I must run always in Opus 4.7 1M Max.
