[Feature Request] Display model name in terminal CLI inline agent status view
Bug Description
Feature request: show the model name in the default inline agent view (terminal CLI)
When a subagent is running, the terminal CLI shows an inline status line like:
⏺ main
◯ general-purpose Writing local-history.ts for dedupe 6m 11s · ↓ 148.8k tokens
This shows the agent type, task description, elapsed time, and token count — but not which model
the subagent is running on (e.g. haiku vs sonnet vs opus).
When running several subagents in parallel with different models (e.g. delegating cheap/fast
subtasks to haiku and complex ones to sonnet/opus), there's currently no way to tell at a glance
which subagent is using which model in this view.
I found two related settings, but neither covers this:
- subagentStatusLine shows per-subagent info including the model, but only in the Desktop app's
agent panel — it doesn't render in the terminal CLI at all.
- /tasks lists running/completed subagents but also doesn't surface the model name in its list or
transcript view.
Request: add the model name to the default terminal inline agent view (and/or to /tasks), so it's
visible without extra commands or Desktop-app-only features.
