# Routing coding tasks across language models

Assign development subtasks to suitable models based on complexity to balance speed and expense

- When you askReceive coding request
- ThenClassify task complexity
- ResultRoute to designated model

Inspect incoming code requests to determine task complexity before execution. Route routine exploration, boilerplate generation, and syntax fixes to lightweight models, reserving larger reasoning models for architecture planning and intricate debugging, keeping resource usage transparent.

## Prompt to start with

BotBentoRecommended

```
When a developer submits a coding objective, break it down into discrete subtasks such as codebase search, implementation, and review. Score each subtask by complexity and choose the configured model endpoint that matches the requirement. Run tests and review generated code before applying changes. Always request confirmation before modifying remote repositories or committing code changes to version control.
