Model Router

Intelligent AI model routing across multiple providers for optimal cost-performance balance.

Automatically select the best model for any task based on complexity, type, and your preferences. Support for 6 major AI providers with secure API key management and interactive configuration.

🎯 What It Does

• Analyzes tasks and classifies them by type (coding, research, creative, simple, etc.)
• Routes to optimal models from your configured providers
• Optimizes costs by using cheaper models for simple tasks
• Secures API keys with file permissions (600) and isolated storage
• Provides recommendations with confidence scoring and reasoning

🚀 Quick Start

Step 1: Run the Setup Wizard

cd skills/model-router
python3 scripts/setup-wizard.py

The wizard will guide you through:

1. Provider setup - Add your API keys (Anthropic, OpenAI, Gemini, etc.)
2. Task mappings - Choose which model for each task type
3. Preferences - Set cost optimization level

Step 2: Use the Classifier

# Get model recommendation for a task
python3 scripts/classify_task.py "Build a React authentication system"

# Output:
# Recommended Model: claude-sonnet
# Confidence: 85%
# Cost Level: medium
# Reasoning: Matched 2 keywords: build, system

Step 3: Route Tasks with Sessions

# Spawn with recommended model
sessions_spawn --task "Debug this memory leak" --model claude-sonnet

# Use aliases for quick access
sessions_spawn --task "What's the weather?" --model haiku

📊 Supported Providers

🎛️ Task Type Mappings

Default routing (customizable via wizard):

💰 Cost Optimization

Aggressive Mode

Always uses the cheapest capable model:

• Simple → glm-4.5-air (~10% cost)
• Coding → claude-haiku-4-5 (~25% cost)
• Research → claude-sonnet-4-5 (~50% cost)

Savings: 50-90% compared to always using premium models

Balanced Mode (Default)

Considers cost vs quality:

• Simple tasks → Cheap models
• Critical tasks → Premium models
• Automatic escalation if cheap model fails

Quality Mode

Always uses the best model regardless of cost

🔒 Security

API Key Storage

~/.model-router/
├── config.json       # Model mappings (chmod 600)
└── .api-keys         # API keys (chmod 600)

Features:

• File permissions restricted to owner (600)
• Isolated from version control
• Encrypted at rest (via OS filesystem encryption)
• Never logged or printed

Best Practices

1. Never commit .api-keys to version control
2. Use environment variables for production deployments
3. Rotate keys regularly via the wizard
4. Audit access with ls -la ~/.model-router/

📖 Usage Examples

Example 1: Cost-Optimized Workflow

# Classify task first
python3 scripts/classify_task.py "Extract prices from this CSV"

# Result: simple task → use glm-4.5-air
sessions_spawn --task "Extract prices" --model glm-4.5-air

# Then analyze with better model if needed
sessions_spawn --task "Analyze price trends" --model claude-sonnet

Example 2: Progressive Escalation

# Try cheap model first (60s timeout)
sessions_spawn --task "Fix this bug" --model glm-4.5-air --runTimeoutSeconds 60

# If fails, escalate to premium
sessions_spawn --task "Fix complex architecture bug" --model claude-opus

Example 3: Parallel Processing

# Batch simple tasks in parallel with cheap model
sessions_spawn --task "Summarize doc A" --model glm-4.5-air &
sessions_spawn --task "Summarize doc B" --model glm-4.5-air &
sessions_spawn --task "Summarize doc C" --model glm-4.5-air &
wait

Example 4: Multimodal with Gemini

# Vision task with 2M token context
sessions_spawn --task "Analyze these 100 images" --model gemini-1.5-pro

🤝 Integration with Other Skills

⚡ Performance Tips

1. Start simple - Try cheap models first
2. Batch tasks - Combine multiple simple tasks
3. Use cleanup - Delete sessions after one-off tasks
4. Set timeouts - Prevent runaway sub-agents
5. Monitor usage - Track costs per provider

🐛 Troubleshooting

"No suitable model found"

• Run setup wizard to configure providers
• Check API keys are valid
• Verify permissions on .api-keys file

"Module not found"

pip3 install -r requirements.txt  # if needed

Wrong model selected

1. Customize task mappings via wizard
2. Use explicit model in sessions_spawn --model
3. Adjust cost optimization preference
