Been loving the tool this far. Thanks @thdxr and team for this awesome tool.

One thing that might be already possible but couldn't find any docs on is the ability to set the agent color on the config, right now it seems really random and randomizes every time a new primary agent is added.

Proposal:

Let the user define a property called color to specifically set the primary agent color (subagents could also use this and have that color highlighted when called.

mode: primary
color: red

You are a blueprint specialist focused on creating comprehensive ...

This helps to find the primary agent with a better UX and better muscle memory, in a way this can allow users to organize their agents visually and find them easier.

Another small thing would be the ability to order the primary agents, don't know if they follow recency or definition order on the agents folder, but would be a nice add-on!

Thanks for the awesome work!

I gave it a try here https://github.com/sst/opencode/pull/3809

Am using it locally and makes it much nicer to flip between agents by just seeing the color in the corner of your eye
