Models and Configuration

Switch models in-session

$ dreadnode
dreadnode> /model anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-20250514
Active model set to anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-20250514
dreadnode> /model openai/gpt-4.1-mini
Active model set to openai/gpt-4.1-mini

Model selection applies to future turns in the current TUI session. The runtime does not store model choice as part of the server-side session metadata.

• Switching sessions inside the same TUI process restores that session’s local model choice.
• Restarting the TUI restores your last explicitly selected default model for new sessions.
• Per-session model choices still are not restored independently across restarts.
• If you explicitly invoke an agent with its own configured model, that agent model still wins for that turn.

Target a different platform

Use the startup --platform flag, dreadnode login --server <url>, or /login --server <url> to authenticate against another Dreadnode platform instance.

$ dreadnode login --server http://localhost:3000
$ dreadnode --platform http://localhost:3000
dreadnode> /login sk_live_... --server http://localhost:3000
