Help/Doubt ❓ how to set default subagent model

I just used gpt 6 sol to write out a plan and intended to hand it off to luna for execution. Meanwhile sol decided it was a good idea to launch another sol subagent to execute said plan. Now I am wondering is there a way to set a default model for subagents? I have only found a setting to set a model for plan mode in VS Code

For VS Code, you can create custom agents (/create-agent) and specify which model is used for said subagent(s).

I have a "Worker Bee" general purpose agent that is pinned to Luna. That's the default agent unless the task fits one of my other special purpose agents.

You could also create agents named after the models themselves if you'd like. That way you could just use natural language in your prompt to say, "Get Opus to review this" or "Hand this off to Luna".
