Seperate plan and act mode support.

[Raghav-Kochhar]

Just wanted to ask for a seperate Plan and Act mode. This would be beneficial for thorough planning first and then acting upon it. Also id like to ask for seperate models in these modes. I wanted this feature as currently when using the gemini CLI via my google account i frequently get switched to flash and dont want to break my flow by reopening the CLI just to get the pro model, So i wanted a plan mode that defaults to 2.5 Pro for planning, and then it switched to Act mode which defaults to 2.5 Flash for writing the code and tool calls and other stuff. If this became the default for all free users than people might get better and longer access to 2.5 Pro's capabilities.

There is an issue discussing plan mode #1607

Please add your ideas and upvote that issue if it is a priority for you. Thanks!

See my impromptu attempt at it here: #2386 . (In short: "do use PMBOK or Agile artifacts in solving anything").

Update: oh, you mean using "deeper thinking" models first for ideation, and "flash thinking" later on? But then, what shall happen when yous encounter the first bug? Bug solving and pivoting and Ariadne's thread approach (against trackers) are the most intelligent tasks, actually...

I find it comforting to switch into Plan-Mode (Claude Code via shift+tab and cycle through the modes). It just gives me an ease of mind that code will not be altered.
