Agent presets
A preset is a named provider/model reasoning/permission profile (plus optional environment, base branch, machine, and instructions). Cards remember their preset; the worker thread spawns with that profile.

bb stelow preset add --name "Quick" --model gpt-5-mini --reasoning low --permission auto
bb stelow preset assign --card <card_id> --preset <preset_id>
Behavior worth knowing
- Bands per track. Manage presets groups bands by track (Research,
Explore, Build) instead of a flat list — changing one default never leaks into another. First-visit setup explains presets once per track.
- Composer override. The creation dialog's provider/model choice is
authoritative for that spawn and is pinned as the card's preset override, so restarts keep running what was picked.
- Pi provider. The picker shows only the configured Bifrost routes —
never Pi's unrelated route catalog.
- Applying a changed preset. Assign it, then click Repair — the
worker thread is recreated with the new profile.
