When a slash-command or skill declares its own model override, Claude Code now checks whether that model is actually supported under the current auto-mode/fast-mode configuration before applying it. If the model isn't supported in auto mode, or if the auto-mode disableFastMode setting (from tengu_auto_mode_config) rules it out, Claude Code logs a warning and keeps the session's current model instead of switching. Previously the override was applied unconditionally whenever a skill or command specified one.
