AI Analysis

●●SolidBig BrainSolve My Problem

Benchmark-backed router cuts agent token costs by 70% across four task layers.

Strengths
  • Benchmarks nine tools to assign winners for reading, writing, and command tasks.
  • Installable as native Claude Code plugin or Codex skill with zero config.
  • Layer-based routing logic prevents expensive tools from handling specific cheap tasks automatically.
Weaknesses
  • Relies on external tools like serena and rtk staying maintained and compatible.
  • Token savings vary wildly depending on task complexity and model pricing changes.
