Jev + Opus 5.5, side by side. same agent. same task. same 60 decisions. Opus-only: $2.24 - 3m 37s Jev + Opus: $0.43 - 1m 15s the difference is who makes the small calls: which tool runs next - Jev is this output good enough - Jev is the...

Smart routing done right

Leave the refund rewrite on Opus. Which tool runs next, is the output good enough, and is the goal met are closed questions, so they belong on Jev with a confidence floor. I only auto-route when the top option clears that floor. Anything under it goes back to the big model instead of guessing.

i ran jev against haiku on sorting my own knowledge notes earlier this month, and across all of them haiku was ahead, about ninety eight right in a hundred against about ninety one. when i only kept the six in ten notes jev was surest about, it got every one of those right, and haiku did about as well on its own six in ten. so before sending fifty seven of sixty calls to jev, log its confidence on each one and have opus answer a sample of the same calls. if the misses sit in the low confidence ones, that's your line for when opus steps in. i wrote up the numbers here

What's the one problem you're seeing?

That cost difference really adds up

THIS IS ACTUAL F*CKING GOLD Anthropic just shared one of the best tricks for Claude Code. The idea: run Sonnet, Haiku and Opus 5.5 together, each one doing only the job it's best at. Opus-level judgment on every big call, without paying Opus rates for every routine turn. You just launch Claude Code like this: claude --model sonnet --advisor opus here's the split: → Sonnet 5.5 runs the session and writes the code → Haiku 5.5 explores files and docs in parallel → Opus 5.5 stays on call as advisor for the big calls → you stop spending Opus on work that doesn't need it Opus only steps in at three moments: → before a plan locks → when the same error shows up twice → before calling it done Sonnet builds. Haiku explores. Opus reviews. JEV engineering is the same move one layer down: the forks that need no thinker (which file, which tool, retry or stop) go to JEV in milliseconds, and the big models only see the ones that split the full tree > Sonnet 5.5 runs the main session and edits code > search maps the repo on Haiku 5.5 > grep finds call sites on Haiku 5.5 > docs pulls the API reference on Haiku 5.5 > Opus 5.5 on call as advisor, reads the whole transcript when consulted > JEV routes micro-forks in milliseconds paste the tree and this prompt into Claude Code ↓ "Rebuild my Claude Code setup around this tree: 1. Run the main session on Sonnet 5.5 with Opus 5.5 as advisor. 2. Create three read-only Haiku 5.5 subagents: search (maps the repo), grep (finds call sites), docs (pulls the API reference). 3. Add one rule to CLAUDE.md: consult the advisor before locking a plan, after the same error twice, and before calling a task done. 4. Route fast deterministic forks (tool choice, path selection, retries) through JEV. Show me every change as a diff first. No edits until I say go." ↳ save it, you'll use this every single day.

THIS IS PURE F*CKING GOLD Anthropic just shared one of the best tricks for Claude Code. The idea: run Sonnet, Haiku and Opus 5.5 at the same time, each one doing only what it's best at. Better results and way fewer tokens, because every task lands on the right model. You just start Claude Code like this: claude --model sonnet --advisor opus here's how it splits: → Sonnet 5 runs the session and writes the code → Haiku 5.5 explores files and docs in parallel → Opus 5.5 stays on call as advisor for the big decisions → you stop burning Opus context on tasks that don't need it Opus only steps in at three moments: → before a plan locks → when the same error hits twice → before calling it done Sonnet builds. Haiku explores. Opus reviews. JEV engineering is the same move one layer down: the forks that need no thinker (which file, which tool, retry or stop) go to JEV in milliseconds, and the big models only see the ones that split the full tree > Sonnet 5 runs the main session and edits code > search maps the repo on Haiku 5.5 > grep finds call sites on Haiku 5.5 > docs pulls the API reference on Haiku 5.5 > Opus 5.5 on call as advisor, reads the full transcript when consulted > JEV routes micro-forks in milliseconds paste the tree and this prompt into Claude Code ↓ "Reconfigure my Claude Code setup around this tree: 1.

Add one rule to CLAUDE.md: consult the advisor before locking a plan, after the same error twice, and before calling a task done. 4. Route fast deterministic forks (tool choice, path selection, retries) through JEV. Show me every change as a diff first. No edits until I say go." ↳ save it, it'll come in handy.

OPUS 5.5 JUST DROPPED AND I PLUGGED IT INTO NERVE WITHIN AN HOUR. IT SELF VERIFIED ITS OWN TRADE THESIS THREE TIMES BEFORE FIRING. +5 ETH IN ONE SESSION. repo: every model before this proposed trades. opus 5.5 argues with itself before proposing. i replaced the analyst slot. same impulse. same spine. same jev for speed scoring. opus 5.5 now sits where astra used to sit but it does something astra never did. it checks its own work. first pool comes in. opus reads the narrative brief from grok. reads the jev score. reads the analyzer output. writes a thesis. then it attacks its own thesis. finds a weakness. rewrites. attacks again. three rounds. all inside one call. the impulse that exits the analyst slot is not a first impression. it is a thesis that survived its own author trying to kill it. astra wrote one paragraph and moved on. opus 5.5 writes three drafts and only sends the one it could not break. 1M context means it holds the entire narrative map, the last 200 pool results, the ghost log, and the current portfolio in one pass. no truncation. no summary. the full picture. first session i watched it reject a pool that jev scored 0.87. opus wrote the thesis, attacked it, found that the narrative was 14 hours old and decelerating despite fresh volume. the crowd was leaving not arriving. jev saw the numbers. opus saw the story behind the numbers was ending. then it cleared two pools in a row that grok flagged as early narrative. opus confirmed both, self verified, fired. pool 1: +2.1 ETH. pool 2: +2.9 ETH. +5 ETH. one session. the model that argues with itself before spending your money. jev decides in 190ms. opus thinks for 4 seconds. nerve runs both because speed and depth are not the same question.

this is pure f*cking treasure Claude Code tip: once Opus 5.5 is your main model, stop leaving Fable 5.1 sitting idle and stop burning Opus tokens on tasks Sonnet 5.5 can swarm put it on call with /goal claude --auto-mode "/goal all tests pass and lint is clean" Opus 5.5 keeps writing the code in auto mode Sonnet 5.5 swarms the routine work at medium Fable 5.1 inspects the full transcript and only speaks up at the turn boundary: → not yet met: am I drifting from acceptance criteria? → met: do the tests, diffs, and lint hold? → impossible: am I chasing an unreachable state? Fable grades. Opus ships JEV engineering is the same move one layer down: the forks that need no thinker (which file, which tool, retry or halt) go to JEV in under 16ms, and the big models only see the ones that split — the full tree > Opus 5.5 on high runs the main session > worker edits and patches code on Sonnet 5.5 > explorer indexes AST maps and call sites on Sonnet 5.5 > verifier runs tests and linters on Sonnet 5.5 > all three subagents on medium effort > Fable 5.1 on call as the Stop hook evaluator > JEV routes micro-forks under 16ms paste the tree and this prompt into Claude Code ↓ "Reconfigure my Claude Code setup around this tree: 1. Set the main session to Opus 5.5 on high effort with auto mode enabled. 2. Put Fable 5.1 on call as a session-scoped evaluator attached to the Stop hook: - Read-only transcript evaluation with zero tool calls - Three structured outcomes: not yet met (with steering notes), met (auto-clear), and impossible (abort early) 3. Spawn Sonnet 5.5 subagents on medium effort for worker, explorer, and verifier roles. Defer goal checks while background tasks run. 4. Route fast deterministic forks (tool resolution, path selection, auto-retries) through JEV. 5. Add one rule to CLAUDE.md: run long tasks with: claude --auto-mode \"/goal \" Show me every configuration change as a diff first. No edits until I say go." ↳
