Summary
fable. The model now follows task difficulty: round 1 keeps fable inupgrademode and uses opus forrescueandsuggest; round 2 (verifying Codex findings) defaults to opus; Copilot responses default to sonnet.modelstays an override for both rounds (its default is now empty). A newreview-modelinput overrides round 2 alone (review-model || model || 'opus'). No template caller sets either, so the new defaults apply org-wide on merge, and any hand-set override keeps working.Test plan
