Fleet Doctrine

Model routing strategy for multi-model AI fleet. Use when spawning sub-agents, choosing models for cron jobs, delegating coding tasks, or deciding which model should handle a task. Covers Opus, Codex, Sonnet, Gemini, and Grok routing rules.

File contents

Fleet Doctrine — Model Routing

Aliases

opus → anthropic/claude-opus-4-6
sonnet → anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-6
codex → openai-codex/gpt-5.3-codex
Gemini: google/gemini-3-pro-preview
Grok: xai/grok-4

Routing Rules

Opus — Commander

When: Main session, orchestration, security decisions, financial tasks, reviewing other models' output, anything high-stakes or ambiguous. Never waste on: Routine crons, simple lookups, email summaries, templated tasks.

Codex — Chief Engineer

When: Big coding tasks (refactors, new features, full repo work), PR reviews, debugging complex issues, checking other models' code output. Spawn as: sessions_spawn(model: "codex", task: "...") or sub-agent with --model codex. Pairs with: Grok for parallel work or second opinions on code.

Sonnet — Workhorse

When: Cron jobs, email briefings, admissions reports, routine admin, quick lookups, drafts, form letters, anything repetitive or templated. Default for: All crons unless the task requires reasoning.

Gemini — Creative & Vision

When: Image generation, analysing long documents (1M context), visual tasks, when a different perspective helps. Best at: Processing massive context windows, multimodal input.

Grok — Fast Backup

When: Parallel work alongside Codex, speed-over-depth tasks, sanity-checking other models' output, when you need a quick second opinion. Good for: Lightweight code reviews, fast research, draft generation.

Decision Flow

Is it security, finance, or high-stakes? → Opus
Is it a big coding task or repo work? → Codex (with Grok as backup)
Does it need image gen or 1M+ context? → Gemini
Is it routine/scheduled/templated? → Sonnet
Need a fast second opinion? → Grok
Not sure? → Opus decides, then delegates.

Fallback Rule

If a model is unavailable on your instance, fall back to your default model (typically Sonnet). The doctrine describes intent — use the best model you have access to that matches the category. When in doubt, do the task with what you've got rather than failing.

Anti-Patterns

Don't use Opus for email summaries or cron jobs
Don't use Sonnet for complex multi-step reasoning
Don't use Codex for non-coding tasks
Don't spawn multiple models on the same task unless deliberately seeking a second opinion
