Model Selection for Matt Pocock Skills
Skill routine → model mapping with cost control strategy.
| Skill Routine | Active Model | Rationale | Cost Control Strategy |
|---|---|---|---|
/wayfinder |
Kimi K3 | Ingests the whole repository + logs; maps out foggy decisions cleanly. | Lock OpenRouter session headers to keep the shared map warm in the cache. |
/to-spec |
Kimi K3 | Synthesizes complex context, determines testing seams, and handles vision inputs. | Pure text-only features can be dropped down to K2.7 to save token caps. |
/to-tickets / /tdd |
Kimi K2.7 Code | Hyper-efficient, bounded implementation of granular feature blocks. | Use local terminal caching plugins to retain context between coding iterations. |
Key insight: K3 for ingestion and synthesis (context-heavy), K2.7 for implementation (bounded, repetitive). Session/cache warming matters more than raw model power once the map is built.
