Now let me read the relevant source files to understand the context:

Readscoped-models-selector.ts

Readinteractive-mode.ts200 lines

ReadCHANGELOG.md

Let me read more of the interactive-mode.ts file to see the cycle model functionality:

Readinteractive-mode.ts120 lines

Readsupports-xhigh.ts

Readmodels.ts20 lines

Readindex.ts

Readscoped-models-selector.test.ts

There are type errors in the current main branch. But I should analyze the PR changes to determine if they pass the type check. Let me see if this PR's changes compile by checking the diff more carefully.

The key changes in the PR are:

scoped-models-selector.ts - new logic for Ctrl+R reset, Ctrl+T thinking overrides
interactive-mode.ts - simplified callbacks, includes provider name in Ctrl+P status
New test file scoped-models-selector.test.ts
CHANGELOG.md additions

Let me check if there are any obvious issues with the code:

Good, ThinkingLevel is defined in packages/agent/src/types.ts and should be exported. The import in the PR's code (import type { ThinkingLevel } from "@mariozechner/pi-agent-core";) looks correct.

Now let me analyze the PR changes thoroughly:

CHANGELOG.md changes - The PR adds an entry under ## [Unreleased] with:
- ### Added: Ctrl+R reset and Ctrl+T thinking overrides
- ### Changed: Provider name in Ctrl+P status, ✓ for enabled models
scoped-models-selector.ts changes:
- New imports for ThinkingLevel, Api, supportsXhigh
- New ThinkingOverrides type
- New helper function getThinkingCycleLevels(model)
- ModelItem now includes thinkingOverride field
- ModelsConfig interface changed from enabledModelIds: Set<string> + hasEnabledModelsFilter: boolean to enabledIds: EnabledIds + thinkingOverrides: ThinkingOverrides
- ModelsCallbacks interface simplified from many callbacks to just onChange, onPersist, onCancel
- Added initialEnabledIds and initialThinkingOverrides for reset functionality
- Added buildPatterns() to convert internal state to string patterns with :level suffixes
- emitChange() helper to notify parent
- enableAll function changed to not return null when all are enabled (always returns array)
- New keyboard handlers for Ctrl+T (cycle thinking) and Ctrl+R (reset)
- Ctrl+A now just clears filter (sets null) instead of enabling all filtered
- Footer text updated to include new shortcuts
- Status display now always shows ✓ for enabled models without the "allEnabled" check. The interactive-mode.ts file has been significantly refactored where the cycled model status now includes the provider name in brackets, and the showModelsSelector method contains complex logic to preserve thinking overrides from settings by matching session scope to settings scope to determine if explicit :level suffixes should be retained, with a new applySessionScope(patterns) function to update the session and a simplified callback structure using just onChange and onPersist.

A new test file scoped-models-selector.test.ts covers showing ✓ when all enabled, cycling thinking overrides with Ctrl+T, ignoring Ctrl+T when no filter is active, handling Ctrl+T when all models are explicitly selected, and resetting with Ctrl+R. One potential issue stands out: the enableAll function now always returns an array instead of returning null when all models become enabled, which is a behavioral change since null previously indicated "all enabled, no filter" and thinking overrides only function when a filter is active.

The Ctrl+A handler sets enabledIds to null and clears thinking overrides, representing "all enabled without per-model thinking" rather than the previous behavior of keeping some models disabled. The matching logic for preserving :level suffixes from settings is intricate, comparing session and settings scopes by checking if IDs align in order. The test mocks use api: "anthropic-messages" for both models despite one having provider: "openai" with id gpt-4o, which works but could be clearer.

Looking closer at the Ctrl+A handler, there's a potential issue: it sets enabledIds to null and clears thinkingOverrides, but when persisting via Ctrl+S, this passes buildPatterns() which returns null when enabledIds is null. This could remove any filter and lose thinking level settings the user previously configured. The onPersist callback in interactive-mode.ts needs to handle this case properly.

Let me verify the type imports work correctly:

The PR doesn't have a pkg:coding-agent label but it's modifying packages/coding-agent. Let me finalize my review.

Summary of the PR changes:

Ctrl+R reset - Restores the initial model selection and thinking overrides
Ctrl+T per-model thinking overrides - Cycles through thinking levels for selected model, persisted as :level suffixes
Provider name in Ctrl+P status - Shows [provider] when cycling models
✓ for enabled models - Always shows checkmarks for enabled models, even when all are enabled

The CHANGELOG is properly formatted with ### Added and ### Changed sections. The PR includes tests for the new functionality.

Now let me create my review:

Now let me verify documentation requirements:

The README already documents the enabledModels setting format with :level suffixes (e.g., gemini-2.5-pro:high). So there's no additional documentation needed for that.

However, the new /scoped-models UI keybindings (Ctrl+T for thinking, Ctrl+R for reset) are not documented in the README. The README only has a brief mention of /scoped-models in the commands table. We could argue this should be documented in the README since it's new interactive functionality.

Let me finalize my review.

PR: https://github.com/badlogic/pi-mono/pull/837

Changelog:

Present: Yes, properly added under ## [Unreleased] in packages/coding-agent/CHANGELOG.md
Format: Correct. Uses ### Added for new features and ### Changed for modifications
Attribution: External contribution, should include PR link and author. Currently missing:
- Should be: - /scoped-models: Ctrl+R resets... ([#837](https://github.com/badlogic/pi-mono/pull/837) by [@CarlosGtrz](https://github.com/CarlosGtrz))

Good:

Clean API simplification: Replaces 5 callbacks (onModelToggle, onEnableAll, onClearAll, onToggleProvider, onPersist) with 2 (onChange, onPersist)
Thinking overrides persist correctly using the existing :level suffix format (e.g., model-id:high)
Tests cover key scenarios: checkmarks when all enabled, Ctrl+T cycling, Ctrl+T ignored without filter, Ctrl+R reset
Footer hint text updated to show new shortcuts (^T thinking, ^R reset)
Provider name in Ctrl+P status improves UX when multiple providers have similar model names

Bad:

Missing PR label: Should have pkg:coding-agent label
Changelog attribution missing: External contribution needs PR link and author per AGENTS.md rules
Ctrl+A behavior change: Previous behavior enabled filtered models; new behavior clears the filter entirely (sets enabledIds = null). This changes the semantics: pressing Ctrl+A with a search filter used to add those filtered models to the selection, now it clears all filtering
Complex session/settings matching logic: The showModelsSelector code that tries to preserve explicit :level suffixes from settings by comparing session scope to settings scope is fragile. If the session scope gets modified (e.g., model order changes), the suffixes are lost and rebuilt from session state

Ugly:

enableAll() function semantics changed silently: The helper function enableAll() previously returned null when all models became enabled (indicating "no filter"). Now it always returns an array. This breaks the convention that null = "all enabled without explicit filter". Code comment says "null = all enabled (no filter)" but the function no longer produces that state

Questions or Assumptions:

The Ctrl+A change from "enable filtered" to "clear filter entirely" seems intentional for the new thinking override feature (overrides only work with explicit filter). Is this the intended UX change?
Should the README document the new Ctrl+T and Ctrl+R keybindings in /scoped-models?

Change summary:

Ctrl+R reset: Restores initial model selection and thinking overrides when entering /scoped-models
Ctrl+T thinking cycling: Cycles per-model thinking levels (minimal→low→medium→high→xhigh→off) for enabled models, persisted as :level suffixes
Provider in Ctrl+P status: Shows [provider] when cycling models via Ctrl+P
Always show ✓: Enabled models now always show ✓ checkmark, even in "all enabled" mode
Simplified callbacks: Component uses single onChange callback instead of multiple granular callbacks

Tests:

New test file scoped-models-selector.test.ts with 5 test cases:
- ✓ shows checkmarks when all models enabled
- ✓ Ctrl+T cycles thinking and shows :level suffix
- ✓ Ctrl+T ignored when enabledIds is null (no filter)
- ✓ Ctrl+T works when all models explicitly selected (array, not null)
- ✓ Ctrl+R resets selection and thinking overrides

Documentation:

No updates needed to packages/coding-agent/README.md or docs (the :level suffix format is already documented)
The new /scoped-models keybindings could be documented, but they're visible in the component's footer hint text
