Claude Code hooks that auto-switch model tier based on task complexity
Why this job: says: claude code hooks; topics: claude-code-plugin, claude-code
What it does
- Routes prompts with local heuristics and an optional Claude Code fallback.
- Uses Haiku only for clearly mechanical work; defaults agentic coding to Opus with graduated effort.
- Routes Agent and Task sub-agents when they spawn. Nested delegation is floored at the implementation target, and an explicit model always wins.
- Records the requested and resolved model for completed sub-agents, so host-side fallback or allowlist substitutions are visible.
- Dampens borderline classifications instead of switching tiers on weak evidence.
