Determines the investigation depth and approach.

  • AUTO: Use message classifier to determine RCA vs CHAT
  • DEEP: Force RCA (root cause analysis) investigation
  • FAST: Force CHAT (exploratory) investigation
  • LIGHTNING: Fast, tool-rich investigation with tight iteration cap. Uses the union of all tools from fast + deep configs with a speed-focused prompt.
  • ULTRA: Same agent config as DEEP. The client-side trigger for first-turn ensembling. A no-op on follow-ups.
agent_profile'rca' | 'fix'

Which agent a session runs: its tools, prompt, budgets, and how a turn ends.

Fixed when the session is created, so every follow-up runs the same agent. Asking a different agent means starting a new session.
