@JWVerzijden The v2.5 fix Colin mentioned was for a display-only issue (the panel showed the wrong model name). The model selection itself is a separate, still-open problem.
If you update to the latest stable (3.3+), there’s a new Settings > Agents > Subagents section where you can change the Explore subagent model from Composer 2 to “Inherit from parent.” That should help for built-in subagents.
@douglasg14b - For custom subagents with an explicit model: in the frontmatter, there’s a known bug where the parent agent can override your configured model. Your bug report at this thread is being tracked. No ETA on a fix yet.
There’s a more detailed discussion with workarounds here: How can I prevent Cursor from using composer-2-fast to create sub-agents? - Please add your report there for us to track.
