I want an option to use different models for reasoning

I think you can use any model.

I used an OpenAI key and had access to o1 although I chose to use 4o.

I understand you can use OpenRouter and access anything including DeepSeek (although I haven't tried it yet).

Yes I’m using open router and Claude sonnet. But you can’t easily context switch between models easily. You have to do it in settings constantly or copy paste to another window. I just wish you could specify a different model for chain of thought reasoning from the programming.

There are some things Claude can’t debug no matter what you do, but o1 cracks on first try

I might be misunderstanding your meaning, but – in the Cline window under the prompt box in small text is the model name, if you click on that you can change the model and it seems to retain the context. I tried using o1 a few times for exactly what you described and it seemed to work. I am not using OpenRouter and am expert here yet. Does this help?

You have a plan mode and an act mode but both use the same model you specify in settings. What I want is to be able to specified different models for different modes because sonnet sucks at planning that more complicated tasks

Ah I get it. That would be nice. One model for planning and another one for coding. Thanks!
