Make default model for shelley.json user-configurable, or default to another model

GitHub issue #221 Feature Shipped blackbird-merulavia github Jul 22, 2026 View original

Claude Opus 4.8 is (imo) overkill for setting up a VM. I would much prefer GLM or another model; much cheaper and just as good for this purpose.

Additionally, defaulting to Opus without a fallback means that users cannot really disable Anthropic in the llm integration; for me, there was no indication of what went wrong.
