We propose a localized conformal model selection framework that integrates local adaptivity with post-selection validity for distribution-free prediction. By performing model selection symmetrically across calibration points using upper and lower surrogate intervals, we construct a data-dependent safe index set that contains the oracle model and preserves exchangeability. The resulting ensemble procedure retains exact finite-sample marginal coverage while adapting to spatial heterogeneity and model complexity. Simulations demonstrate substantial reductions in interval length compared to the best fixed model, especially in heterogeneous and low-noise settings.
