What it does

A model-routing workbench that does the math before you spend: it splits interdependent tasks into work packages, assigns them to different models or vendor CLIs, and estimates cost before execution.

Features

• Planning happens locally; the planning process is not sent out
• Compare several configured routes and pick the cheaper one
• See what permissions a route requires before execution
• Concurrent runs reserve the remaining budget; interrupted runs still retain their budget reservation and cost evidence
• Recorded spend and estimated reservations are displayed separately to avoid misreading the bill

Good fit for

• You have several model providers connected and want to control cost
• You want to know which model is most economical for a given kind of task
• Tasks have dependencies and must be dispatched to different models in order

Advice

• Run it for a while to collect real usage before tuning routing rules; don't configure by feel
• Subscribing to release notifications is enough; there is no need to watch all activity
• Don't route important tasks to weaker models to save money; the quality loss usually costs more than the savings

Cautions

• Routing decisions are based on configuration and estimates; the actual bill is still whatever the vendor charges
• Changing routes changes output quality, so verify the results yourself
• It targets the DSH desktop edition and may not apply to the web edition

Security red lines

• reads credentials/secrets AND has network access
