The Dispatcher

Frontier models for judgment. Cheap models for muscle. Never pay Opus prices for grep work.

Wraps the existing model-router (/route) and the Routing Intelligence System. This skill is the POLICY layer the agent applies before starting any substantial task.

The routing table

Task class Route to Why
Deep reasoning, architecture, strategy, final copy Frontier (Fable/Opus tier) Judgment is the product
Code review of own work, verification passes Frontier, LOW effort Cheap insurance
Bulk mechanical: renames, format conversion, scraping glue Cheap CLI (Kimi/OpenRouter budget tier) 10-30x cheaper, quality identical on mechanical work
Long-context reading (100K+ tokens of docs/logs) Large-context cheap model (Gemini tier) Context window is the requirement, not IQ
Overnight/cron jobs (scout runs, digests, dream writes) Budget tier ALWAYS Runs 365x/year; cost compounds silently
Private/sensitive data Local (Ollama) when viable Data never leaves the box

Protocol

  1. Before any task estimated over ~20K tokens, classify it against the table and state the route in one line: "Routing: bulk transform → Kimi (est. $0.04 vs $1.80 frontier)."
  2. Delegate via the available CLI/subagent for that tier; keep frontier context clean.
  3. Log actual cost per session to the OS usage panel; the weekly roll-up feeds the Dream review.
  4. If the cheap tier fails quality twice, escalate one tier and note it. Never silently retry the same tier 5 times.

The receipt (say it out loud)

End every routed session with the one-line receipt: tokens spent by tier + what the same work would have cost frontier-only. That delta is the whole point. Target: the full overnight stack (scout + dream + digests) under $1/night.
