Switch model profile for GSD agents (quality/balanced/budget)
61 charsno explicit “when” trigger
Beginner

Key capabilities

  • →Switch the model profile for GSD agents.
  • →Validate profile arguments (quality, balanced, budget).
  • →Update the profile in config.json.
  • →Display a confirmation with a model table.
  • →Handle missing config files by creating them.

How it works

The skill validates the provided profile argument, updates the config.json file, and confirms the change by displaying a model table.

Inputs & outputs

You give it
profile argument (quality, balanced, budget)
You get back
updated config.json and model table display

When to use gsd-set-profile

  • →Adjust agent model quality
  • →Set budget-conscious mode

About this skill

<codex_skill_adapter>

A. Skill Invocation

  • This skill is invoked by mentioning $gsd-set-profile.
  • Treat all user text after $gsd-set-profile as {{GSD_ARGS}}.
  • If no arguments are present, treat {{GSD_ARGS}} as empty.

B. AskUserQuestion → request_user_input Mapping

GSD workflows use AskUserQuestion (Claude Code syntax). Translate to Codex request_user_input:

Parameter mapping:

  • header → header
  • question → question
  • Options formatted as "Label" — description → {label: "Label", description: "description"}
  • Generate id from header: lowercase, replace spaces with underscores

Batched calls:

  • AskUserQuestion([q1, q2]) → single request_user_input with multiple entries in questions[]

Multi-select workaround:

  • Codex has no multiSelect. Use sequential single-selects, or present a numbered freeform list asking the user to enter comma-separated numbers.

Execute mode fallback:

  • When request_user_input is rejected (Execute mode), present a plain-text numbered list and pick a reasonable default.

C. Task() → spawn_agent Mapping

GSD workflows use Task(...) (Claude Code syntax). Translate to Codex collaboration tools:

Direct mapping:

  • Task(subagent_type="X", prompt="Y") → spawn_agent(agent_type="X", message="Y")
  • Task(model="...") → omit (Codex uses per-role config, not inline model selection)
  • fork_context: false by default — GSD agents load their own context via <files_to_read> blocks

Parallel fan-out:

  • Spawn multiple agents → collect agent IDs → wait(ids) for all to complete

Result parsing:

  • Look for structured markers in agent output: CHECKPOINT, PLAN COMPLETE, SUMMARY, etc.
  • close_agent(id) after collecting results from each agent </codex_skill_adapter>
<objective> Switch the model profile used by GSD agents. Controls which Claude model each agent uses, balancing quality vs token spend.

Routes to the set-profile workflow which handles:

  • Argument validation (quality/balanced/budget)
  • Config file creation if missing
  • Profile update in config.json
  • Confirmation with model table display </objective>

<execution_context> @./.codex/get-shit-done/workflows/set-profile.md </execution_context>

<process> **Follow the set-profile workflow** from `@./.codex/get-shit-done/workflows/set-profile.md`.

The workflow handles all logic including:

  1. Profile argument validation
  2. Config file ensuring
  3. Config reading and updating
  4. Model table generation from MODEL_PROFILES
  5. Confirmation display
</process>

When not to use it

  • →When not working with GSD agents.
  • →When the model profile does not need to be changed.

Limitations

  • →The skill is specific to GSD agents.
  • →The skill uses per-role config for models, not inline model selection.

How it compares

This skill provides a structured workflow for changing GSD agent model profiles, unlike manually editing configuration files.
