Feature request: session-level /effort setting
Resolved 💬 2 comments Opened May 3, 2026 by chaitanyabisht Closed May 3, 2026
Request
Please make /effort session-scoped by default (or provide a session-scoped option), instead of applying across all sessions.
Current behavior
Setting /effort low in one chat/session persists and affects other chats/sessions.
Expected behavior
Changing effort in one session should affect only that session, so different sessions can run with different effort levels independently.
Why this is useful
I often run multiple sessions with different needs:
- quick tasks: low effort
- complex tasks: high/xhigh effort
A global persisted effort setting causes unintended carryover between unrelated sessions.
Suggested implementation
- Make
/effort <level>session-only by default, and add an explicit global option (example:/effort <level> --global) - or add a config switch to enable session-level behavior
Docs context
Current docs state that low, medium, high, and xhigh persist across sessions, while max is session-only. This request is to add session-level control for regular effort levels.
