Agent selection settings store the global instructions Traycer uses when an agent spawns or configures a child agent. This page configures how a coding agent gets chosen. It does not manage the agents inside a Task - those live in the Agents panel. 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
  • 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-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 Agents tree, see Agents. For supported coding agents, see Agents & Models.
