+ Use either a session toggle or a config default:
+
+ - **Per session:** send `/fast on` while the session is using `openai/gpt-5.4` or `openai-codex/gpt-5.4`.
+ - **Per model default:** set `agents.defaults.models["openai/gpt-5.4"].params.fastMode` to `true`.
+ - **Codex OAuth too:** if you also use `openai-codex/gpt-5.4`, set the same flag there.
+
+ Example:
+
+ ```json5
+ {
+ agents: {
+ defaults: {
+ models: {
+ "openai/gpt-5.4": {
+ params: {
+ fastMode: true,
+ },
+ },
+ "openai-codex/gpt-5.4": {
+ params: {
+ fastMode: true,
+ },
+ },
+ },
+ },
+ },
+ }
+ ```
+
+ For OpenAI, fast mode maps to `service_tier = "priority"` on supported native Responses requests. Session `/fast` overrides beat config defaults.
+
+ See [Thinking and fast mode](/tools/thinking) and [OpenAI fast mode](/providers/openai#openai-fast-mode).

If `agents.defaults.models` is set, it becomes the **allowlist** for `/model` and any
session overrides. Choosing a model that isn't in that list returns:
