Model routing

Skill JuLius5838/agw/skills/model-routing

Select which gateway model runs a task, subagent, or agent-team teammate. Use when the user names a model for a piece of work — e.g. "use gpt-5.6-sol for this", "spawn a review subagent on <model>", "have one teammate use <model-a> and another use <model-b>", or "switch this session to <model>". Ensures the exact configured model name is passed through unchanged, with no invented aliases and no silent substitution.From its SKILL.md

Agent Gateway — model routing

When the user asks for a specific model, route to it using the exact public name the gateway exposes. Never invent role aliases (no team-review, fast-model, etc.) and never silently substitute a different model.

Steps

  1. Get the exact names the gateway serves:

    agw models list --json

    Use a name from that output verbatim. If the user's requested model is not listed, say so and stop — do not pick a "close" one. (--all also shows inactive candidates, which are not usable until activated in setup.)

  2. Apply the name where the work runs:

    • Main session: claude --model <name>, or /model <name> inside a running session. Claude Code 2.1.218 shows one exact AGW custom-model entry in its picker; use direct exact selection for the other active names.
    • Subagent: pass <name> unchanged as that subagent's model.
    • Agent-team teammate: spawn each teammate with its requested <name>.

  3. Teammate models are fixed at spawn. Changing the lead's /model does not change teammates that are already running; spawn a replacement to change one.

  4. Verify routing after spawn. Correlate each spawned agent's id with the public name/provider actually used (via agw status / sanitized proxy evidence). If Claude's managed availableModels allowlist substituted a different model before the request reached the gateway, report that mismatch — do not present the fallback run as the requested-model run.

  5. Surface errors, don't paper over them. If a model is unauthorized, unavailable, removed upstream, or tool-incompatible, report the failure under its exact public name and provider. The gateway never falls back to another model.

Example requests this handles

Spawn a review subagent using gpt-5.6-sol for this change.

Create two teammates: use gpt-5.6-sol for implementation and <other-model>
for review. Wait for both and summarize their results.
