   I'm also experiencing this exact same issue on the latest release of OpenCode Desktop.

   Switching between sessions resets the manually selected model, forcing re-selection every time you return to a chat. It breaks workflow continuity quite a lot. Hoping we can get a resolution on this soon!

   I just realized OP, is describing a feature request form his perspective, from mine, this is a bug where the default behavior should be to have the originally selected model in the vendor modal persistent. Apologies for the confusion, there are a handful of similar open issues describing the same thing in different ways.

   Please I need this, I often work on multiple issues at the same time with different models. Models are currently "global" and not tied to a session, which is the wrong UX imho.
