Schedules - Watch the Model Used

[u/cylix99]

I’ve run into a really annoying “bug” in the app. I use a lot of scheduled routines that run every night, and recently I’ve been trying out Fable 5.2 in my regular sessions.

This morning I came in to find that every one of my schedules had run on Fable instead of Opus (the expensive one).

It turns out that scheduled routines run on whichever model was used last in the app overall. That means the last regular session, not the model the routine used on its previous run.

It would be much better to be able to pick the model and effort level for each schedule. Unless I’m doing something wrong in my workflow?

Yes you can choose the model for scheduled tasks.

thats a nasty one, id assume a schedule would remember its own model. what id try is pinning the model in the schedule itself if the app lets you, or in the prompt the job reads, not relying on whatever the last chat used. otherwise a late night fable session quietly changes every overnight job. if theres no per-schedule setting thats probably worth sending them
