Pick the smallest model that can finish the task, and record the class of work. Use when routing a search, a multi-file edit, or an architecture review, or when a weekly model cap is close.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Route the model to the job One chair still runs the session. A cheaper model is a worker for a bounded task, not a second orchestrator. | Work | Model class | | --- | --- | | Search, file lookup, doc summary | The faster smaller model | | Multi-file edits and tests | Sonnet class | | Architecture, security review, public or priced copy | Opus class | ## Rules - Do not start an unbounded local loop because a weekly cap is close. Cap the iterations in the prompt and stop. - Do not install a token proxy or a second memory store as part of routing. - Do not send private receipts, `reality.md`, or the Queen inbox to a worker. - If the same mistake is being retried, stop and write the failure down. Another model call is not a fix. - Codex on this machine needs `--no-daemon` when a Claude session calls it. Leave the Stop-hook review gate off. ## Note to leave Write one line: task class, model used, and whether the result was kept. That line is the cost record. Do not invent a dollar figure. ## Where this came from …

How to install
mdr add frankxai/claude-skills-library/cost-aware-llm-pipeline@sha256:aa513139d6e96798The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261010.682b2ce, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
