Agents settings store the global instructions Traycer uses when agents spawn or configure child agents. For the coordination model, see Agent-to-Agent.

​
Agent-Selection Instructions

The global agent-selection guide helps Traycer decide:
  • which coding agent to use for delegated work
  • which model and thinking effort to prefer
  • when a child agent should use Regular Mode or Epic Mode
  • how to route implementation, review, and exploration work

​
Global And Workspace-Specific Guides

The global guide is stored on the Current Host and applies by default. For a specific repo, add a workspace-level guide at: 
<workspace>/.traycer/agent-selection-guide.md
Workspace-level instructions refine or override the global guide for that workspace. Use them when one repo needs different agent choices, models, review expectations, or implementation preferences. For how child agents appear in the Chats tree, see Chats. For supported coding agents, see Agents & Models.
