# Feature Request: Per-Agent Model Fallbacks

**Date:** 2026-02-27

**Requested by:** Matt

**Feature:** Support different fallback model chains per agent (not just global defaults)

**Current state:**
- Global fallbacks: `agents.defaults.model.fallbacks[]` — shared by all agents
- Per-agent: only `model` field, no fallbacks array

**Desired state:**
```json
{
  "id": "bob-implementer",
  "model": "ollama/devstral:24b",
  "fallbacks": [
    "ollama/gpt-oss:20b",
    "ollama/deepseek-coder-v2:16b"
  ]
}
```

**Use case:** Each subagent role has different strengths — coding agents should fallback to other coding models, research agents to other research models, etc.

**Priority:** Nice to have, not critical
