Issue with Agent Routing and MCP configuration not being recognized (v0.1.8)

[orickmaxx]

Hi everyone,

I'm currently using OpenClaude v0.1.8 and I'm having some trouble getting the Agent Routing and MCP servers to work as expected. Despite following the documentation and recent tips from the maintainers, the system doesn't seem to be picking up my custom configurations.

The Problem:

Agent Routing: I have configured agentModels and agentRouting in my ~/.claude/settings.json. However, when I prompt the terminal with tasks like "Review Task" or "Plan this feature", it doesn't switch models automatically. It stays on the default model (Qwen 3.6 Plus in my case) for everything, even when I explicitly define Gemini for planning and Gemma for reviews.

MCP Recognition: My MCP servers (GitHub and Supabase) are defined in the same settings.json, but when I ask the agent to use them, it replies that no MCP tools are available and that the settings file is empty or missing these configurations.

My Setup (~/.claude/settings.json):

{
  "agentModels": {
    "google/gemini-3.1-pro-preview-customtools": { ... },
    "qwen/qwen3.6-plus": { ... },
    "google/gemma-4-26b-a4b-it:free": { ... }
  },
  "agentRouting": {
    "Plan": "google/gemini-3.1-pro-preview-customtools",
    "Review": "google/gemma-4-26b-a4b-it:free",
    "default": "qwen/qwen3.6-plus"
  },
  "mcpServers": {
    "supabase": { ... },
    "github": { ... }
  }
}

What I've tried:

Verifying the file path on Windows (C:\Users\home.claude\settings.json).

Restarting OpenClaude multiple times.

Using specific keywords in prompts to trigger routing.

Checking the dashboard of the provider (OpenRouter) to confirm which model is actually being billed.

Is there a specific way to "force" the agent to reload these settings or a different file path I should be using for v0.1.8? Also, should the model aliases in agentRouting match the keys in agentModels exactly, or is there another mapping I'm missing?

Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks for the amazing project.
