README
# [Claude Model Advisor](https://jaace.github.io/claude-model-advisor/) A Claude Code plugin that recommends the right model and effort level at the start of every session - before any work begins. ## What it does When you start a new Claude Code session, this plugin injects guidance that causes Claude to: 1. Read your first message 2. Assess task complexity 3. Recommend a specific **model** and **effort level** with a one-line rationale 4. Pause and ask you to confirm before starting work This gives you a chance to switch to a cheaper or more powerful model before tokens are burned. ### Model guidance | Model | Effort | Best for | |---|---|---| | Haiku | — | Simple lookups, quick edits, boilerplate, trivia | | Sonnet | medium | Most coding tasks, debugging, refactoring, explanations | | Opus | high | Complex architecture, hard reasoning, math, novel multi-system design | ## Commands ### `/model-check` Run this anytime mid-session to reassess the current task and get an updated model/effort recommendation. ## Installation ``` /plugin marketplace add Jaace/claude-model-advisor /plugin install model-advisor@claude-model-advisor ``` ## Switching models After receiving a recommendation, run `/model` to switch. The `/model` interface lets you: - **Up/down keys** — select the model - **Left/right keys** — set the effort level (low/medium/high) You can also run `/effort` to adjust the effort level independently without changing the model. Options: `auto`, `low`, `medium`, `high`, and `max` (Opus only). Note: effort level does not apply to Haiku. ## Updating After installing, updates require refreshing the marketplace cache first: ``` /plugin marketplace update claude-model-advisor /plugin update model-advisor ```
