How do I change my model routing profile?

You can switch between quality, balanced, and budget profiles using the command /gsd:set-profile followed by the profile name.

Does this work for projects not using GSD?

Yes, for non-GSD projects, you can manually configure your preferred profile by creating a config.json file in the ~/.config/model-matchmaker/ directory.

Where can I see why a specific model was recommended?

All routing decisions and the logic behind them are recorded in the decision log located at ~/.local/state/model-matchmaker/decisions.log.

What is effort-aware prompt routing?

It is a system that analyzes the complexity of your prompt to suggest the most appropriate Claude model and reasoning level, helping you balance cost, speed, and performance.

Can I bypass a model suggestion for a single turn?

Yes, you can prefix any prompt with a backslash (\) to skip the suggestion and maintain your current model for that specific turn.

生产力与工作流

Optimizes Claude model selection and reasoning effort based on prompt complexity and user-defined budget profiles.

The effort-config skill for Claude Code introduces intelligent, automated model routing to ensure you are always using the optimal AI model for every task. By classifying prompts into tiers—ranging from trivial mechanical operations like git renames to complex architectural reasoning—it dynamically suggests the best switch between Claude Haiku, Sonnet, and Opus. Users can choose from Quality, Balanced, or Budget profiles to tailor how the skill recommends model changes, ensuring a perfect balance between high-performance reasoning for deep work and cost-efficiency for simple requests.
