Hi Everyone! So I would consider myself an advanced beginner user of Claude Code right now. And how stupid this might sound, I never thought of model selection while using Claude Code. Always thinking damn, these session limits are going by pretty fast when I am doing a big project. Then I realized it’s always set to Opus 4.6. So the question I have for the pros here, do you manually select models while working? Or is there some way to optimize this? I couldn’t really find any clear info on this. submitted by /u/FairNefariousness359
