Picks Haiku, Sonnet or Opus for each prompt by task type; a manual /model choice wins, /route on|off toggles it, and the reason shows in the status line.

Picks a model for each prompt by task type, with Haiku labelling the prompt first.
| Label | Model | For |
|---|---|---|
| simple | haiku | renaming files, simple classification, short summaries |
| general | sonnet | ordinary code changes, writing documents |
| complex | opus | design work, analysis across connected files |
/model choice wins: routing pauses until /route on./route on, /route off, /route status (or /route). On/off is remembered across sessions.실제: ...).🧭 opus · 여러 파일 설계 · 실제: claude-opus-5-5 · 1분 12초 · 입력 48.2k / 출력 2.1k (캐시 읽기 41.0k) · 분류 +0.3k It shows with routing off too. The model never reads it, so it costs no tokens.Costs: each new prompt adds one small Haiku call for the label, and switching models between prompts means the new model does not reuse the previous model's prompt cache. Whether this saves money depends on your work; compare before relying on it.

hooks/register.ts 225 lines1// Model Router: picks a model for each prompt by task type.
2//
3// prompt.submit: Haiku labels the prompt simple / general / complex, with a
4// one-line reason. A short follow-up ("계속해") keeps the previous pick.
5// turn.step: each main-loop request of the turn goes to the picked model.
6// If that request fails before anything streamed, it is sent again on the
7// session's own model. Subagents are left alone.
8// Manual first: when /model changed the session's model since routing
9// started, routing pauses until `/route on`.
10// The status line shows the pick, the reason and the model that answered.
11// turn.complete: one dim line under each answer with the pick, the model
12// that answered, the time taken and the turn's tokens. It shows with
13// routing off too, and the model never reads it.
