```javascript
export default {
    // Other configuration lines
    introspection: {
        modelPatterns: {
            $static: {
                "Model1": "Mapping1",
                "Model2": async (model) => model
            },
            $regex: {
                "Model(\\d)": async (model, match, number) => model
            }
        }
    }
};
```
