AI Models

Your UltraClaw agent supports multiple AI models from the leading providers. Switch between them anytime to find the right balance of speed, capability, and cost for the task at hand.

Supported Models

Claude

Anthropic ClaudeAnthropic — excellent at writing, analysis, nuanced reasoning, and following complex instructions.

GPT

OpenAI GPTOpenAI — strong general-purpose capabilities with fast response times and broad knowledge.

Gemini

Google GeminiGoogle — powerful multimodal understanding with access to Google’s latest research.
Your agent always uses the latest available versions of each model family. As providers release new models, your agent is updated automatically.

Switching Models

You can change your agent’s model in two ways:
Use the /new slash command followed by the model name to start a new session with a different model:
/new claude
/new gpt
/new gemini
This starts a fresh session with the selected model. Your memory and workspace files carry over — only the model changes.
You can switch models mid-workflow. Stuck on a problem with one model? Try /new claude or /new gpt for a fresh perspective.

Thinking Levels

Control how deeply your agent reasons through problems with the /think command. Higher thinking levels produce more thorough analysis but consume more tokens.
LevelCommandBest For
Off/think offQuick lookups, simple questions
Minimal/think minimalStraightforward tasks, short answers
Low/think lowEveryday conversations and requests
Medium/think mediumModerate reasoning, planning
High/think highComplex analysis, multi-step problems
Extra High/think xhighDeep research, intricate reasoning
Adaptive/think adaptiveLet the agent choose the right level automatically
Adaptive is the default thinking level. Your agent automatically adjusts its reasoning depth based on the complexity of your request — using more tokens only when the task demands it.

Model Fallback

If your selected model is temporarily unavailable due to provider rate limits, your agent automatically rotates to another available model. You’ll receive a seamless response without needing to do anything. Once the preferred model is available again, your agent switches back automatically.

Token Costs by Model

Different models consume tokens at different rates. In general:
  • Lighter models are more cost-efficient for simple tasks
  • Premium models cost more per token but deliver stronger reasoning
All plans include $15/mo in AI credits, with top-up available anytime. See Tokens & Usage for details on how credits work.
