skill

name: ai-model-routerdescription: Intelligent AI model router that automatically switches between two configured models (local for simple tasks, cloud for complex ones). Detects local models (Ollama, LM Studio) automatically, routes based on task complexity and privacy. Use when users ask to "switch model", "use local/cloud model", or mention API keys/passwords (triggers privacy mode). Trigger on: sensitive data detection (forces local), complex tasks like "design architecture" (uses cloud), or configuration requests.version: 1.0.0

AI Model Router

Compact, intelligent model routing that just works.

Quick Start

# Install
npx clawhub@latest install ai-model-router

# First run - auto-detects your models
python3 skill/core/router.py "What is Python?"

# List available models
python3 skill/core/router.py --list

How It Works

Your Request → Analyze → Select Model
                          ↓
                    Simple? → Primary (fast/cheap)
                    Complex? → Secondary (capable)
                    Private? → Primary (forced)

Scoring (from model-router-premium)

Threshold: 5 (simple vs complex)

Features

CLI

# Route a task
python3 skill/core/router.py "Design a system"
python3 skill/core/router.py "What is a for loop?"

# Options
--json                    # JSON output
--force primary           # Force primary model
--list                    # List all models
--status                  # Show status

Python API

from skill.core.router import RouterCore

router = RouterCore()
result = router.route("Design microservices")

print(result.model_name)   # "Claude Opus 4"
print(result.reason)        # "complex_task(score=15)"
print(result.confidence)    # 0.75

Configuration (Optional)

Create ~/.model-router/models.json:

{
  "primary_model": {"id": "ollama:llama3:8b"},
  "secondary_model": {"id": "anthropic:claude-opus-4"},
  "models": [...]
}

Without config: Auto-detects local + uses cloud registry.

Privacy Protection

Automatically forces primary (local) when sensitive data detected:

• API keys (sk-..., api_key)
• Passwords (password, passwd)
• Tokens (bearer, secret)
• Emails, SSN, credit cards

Files

• core/router.py - Core routing engine (~200 lines)
• modules/detector.py - Auto-detection (optional)
• modules/context.py - Context tracking (optional)

Inspired By

• model-router-premium: Simple scoring logic, cost-aware routing
• Model Router v1: Full feature set, documentation

This version combines:

• The simplicity of model-router-premium (~200 lines)
• The features of ai-model-router (privacy, auto-detect, context)
