Why this matters
Routing is a product policy: the system should know when speed, reasoning depth or determinism matters most.
The practical takeaways
- Route by task type and risk, not by model popularity.
- Use a small evaluation set to tune thresholds.
- Keep an escalation path for uncertain cases.
How to apply it
Start with one measurable workflow, define the failure boundary, and publish the result with enough context for another builder to reproduce the decision. The goal is not to chase every announcement; it is to turn useful changes into better products, skills and deployment practice.
