Custom Modes (Org)

Modes are agent personas, each with a constrained toolset that shapes what the agent can do and how it behaves. Picking the right mode keeps the agent focused on the task at hand.

Built-in modes

MegaBrain ships with several built-in modes, each tuned for a different kind of work:

• •Architect — plans and designs before touching code.
• •Ask — answers questions and explains without making changes.
• •Code — writes and edits code with full tool access.
• •Debug — investigates and fixes problems.
• •Orchestrator — coordinates multi-step work across other modes.

Creating an org custom mode

Admins create organization custom modes at /organizations/[id]/custom-modes. A mode is defined by:

• •Name — what teammates see when they pick the mode.
• •Tools — which capabilities it can use: read, edit, browser, command, and mcp.
• •Behavior — instructions that guide how the agent works in this mode.

Sharing org-wide

Define a mode once and share it across the organization so every member starts from the same setup. This governance benefit means teams enforce consistent behavior and tool access without each person configuring modes by hand. See the dashboard to manage shared configuration.
