The effort-level UI now separately notes when an organization pins the starting effort for new sessions, distinct from its overall default effort.

What

  • The effort-selector UI can now show a note that the organization pins the starting effort for new sessions on a model, separate from the existing note about the organization's overall default effort.
  • When a user picks an effort level that ends up capped, the confirmation message can now explain that even though their choice was saved, the organization forces new sessions on that model to start at a different effort.

Why This clears up potential confusion where a user's saved effort preference doesn't match what a new session actually starts at, by explaining that the organization controls the starting point separately from the general default.
