1. A method for wireless communication by a user equipment (UE), comprising:
receiving, from a network entity, configuration information configuring the UE with a set of transmission configuration indicator (TCI) states, wherein the configured set of TCI states comprises a first number of TCI states for use in communicating with the network entity;
detecting a change in an operation mode of the UE from a first operation mode to a second operation mode; and
transmitting, based on the detected change in the operation mode of the UE, information to the network entity indicating the UE will monitor and report on a reduced second number of TCI states of the configured set of TCI states relative to the first number of TCI states.
