• For cross-model adversarial review (writer reviewed by different model)
• When delegating implementation to cheaper external models
• For escalation chains across tools

Capabilities

• Delegated Implementation - Send work units to external AI tools for implementation
• Cross-Model Review - Implementation by Model A, adversarial review by Model B
• Escalation Chains - Tool A -> Tool B -> Claude -> human
• Cost Optimization - Route simpler tasks to cheaper models

Configuration

  - name: codex
    type: openai
    capabilities: [implement, review]
  - name: gemini
    type: google
    capabilities: [implement, review]
escalation:
  chain: [codex, gemini, claude, human]
