agent-routing
Decide which model, effort level, and cascade shape each subagent gets, and how to keep improvement loops safe (evaluator-as-selector, stop on regression). Routes on measured cost-per-completed-task rather than per-token price, because a tier's token count varies more by task shape than price varies across tiers. Covers per-model effort semantics, the concision lever, cascade preconditions, context handoff, and watching a subagent fan-out live. Use when choosing a subagent's model or effort, when choosing how to escalate a failed attempt, or when asked which model or effort a task should get. Grounded in a 2026-07 calibration, a 2026-08 coding-cost study, a 2026-09 seeded-bug repair battery, a 2026-10 Haiku 5.5 ladder priced per spawn, and a 2026-10 retry-versus-escalation ladder on 295 SWE-bench Verified tasks; Managed Agents API specifics are operational, not calibrated.
Which mechanism launches the subagent (Agent tool, Workflow, or headless claude -p) is dispatching-subagents; its README maps the neighbouring skills.
