Hey, glad the breakdown was helpful. Your vision for a native and opinionated version, where Cursor understands the request, splits it into stages, recommends the right model and settings for each stage, and runs the pipeline deterministically, is exactly the direction I shared with the team as feedback.
There isn’t a deterministic stage-to-model pipeline out of the box yet, but the idea matches what we’re already discussing. The best way to amplify the signal is to add your vote and details here: # Feature Request: User-configurable model routing rules for the main agent
For Router updates, including expansion to other plans, it’s easiest to follow the main thread here: Introducing Cursor Router
If you have questions about subagents with model: frontmatter or Plan mode, ping me and we can dig into it.
