builder.configuration.agent.models

builder.configuration.agent.models is the admin-facing model policy input on AgentBuilderOptions. It controls which providers and models the Agent Builder exposes, and which model is pre-selected on new-agent create.

See Model policy for concepts and worked examples.

allowed?:

ProviderModelEntry[]
Allowlist of providers and models. Omit to allow every registered model. When non-empty, only the listed entries are selectable in the Builder.
KnownProviderEntry

provider:

Provider
Provider id from the generated provider registry (for example, `openai`, `anthropic`).

modelId?:

ModelForProvider<Provider>
Specific model id for that provider. Omit to allow every model under the provider.
CustomProviderEntry

kind:

'custom'
Discriminant marking this entry as a gateway or self-hosted provider not in the registry.

provider:

string
Provider id for the custom provider.

modelId?:

string
Specific model id under the custom provider. Omit to allow every model under it.

default?:

DefaultModelEntry
Pre-selected model on new-agent create. Same shape as `ProviderModelEntry`, but `modelId` is required. Must satisfy the `allowed` list when set.
DefaultModelEntry

provider:

Provider | string
Provider id. Use a `Provider` literal for known providers, or any `string` with `kind: 'custom'`.

modelId:

string
Required model id. Points at a specific model, not a whole provider.

kind?:

'custom'
Set to `custom` when targeting a provider that isn't in the generated registry.

Validation rules
Direct link to Validation rules

Mastra validates the admin policy at server boot. Violations surface as warnings on GET /editor/builder/settings.modelPolicyWarnings.

  • allowed empty or omitted: no restriction. Every registered model is available.
  • When allowed is non-empty and a default is set: default must satisfy isModelAllowed(allowed, default). A default that fails this check is dropped and surfaced as a warning.
  • To hide the end-user model picker, set features.agent.model: false in AgentBuilderOptions. When the picker is hidden, provide a default so new agents resolve a model.
