- **Default agent** for the session.
- **Random worktree**, which branches each new session into its own fresh git
worktree.
- **Base branch** the worktree forks from. This field appears only when
**Random worktree** is on (it's the branch the fresh worktree is cut from).
Leave it blank to fall through to your user-global **Default base branch**
(**Settings › Git**); a value set here takes precedence over that global
default.

New sessions started in that project pre-fill the composer from these defaults.
Nothing is locked in: every field is still editable before you send, any default

**Settings › Git**. The composer then auto-fills that value whenever you name a
new worktree branch; leave the setting blank to turn auto-fill off.

A project can override this per-project: the **Base branch** in
[Project settings](#project-settings-and-defaults) wins over the global default,
so the composer auto-fills the project's base branch when set and falls back to
the global default (then to blank) when it isn't.
