/sdlc-model

Direct model switch:

/sdlc-model local-llm/alibaba/qwen-max
/sdlc-model anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-6

Auto Model Switch

Extension auto-switches model when SDLC skills invoked:

Skill	Config Key	Purpose
/skill:sdlc-spec	models.{tier}.spec	Reasoning, planning
/skill:sdlc-plan	models.{tier}.plan	Task breakdown
/skill:sdlc-execute	models.{tier}.execute	Coding
/skill:sdlc-verify	models.{tier}.verify	Review, testing

Config File

.sdlc/config.json in project root:

{
  "tier": "medium",
  "models": {
    "high": {
      "spec": "anthropic/claude-opus-4-7",
      "plan": "anthropic/claude-opus-4-6",
      "execute": "anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-6",
      "verify": "anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-6"
    },
    "medium": {
      "spec": "google/gemini-2.5-pro",
      "plan": "google/gemini-2.5-pro",
      "execute": "openai/gpt-4o",
      "verify": "openai/gpt-4o-mini"
    },
    "budget": {
      "spec": "deepseek/deepseek-r1",
      "plan": "deepseek/deepseek-r1",
      "execute": "deepseek/deepseek-coder-v3",
      "verify": "google/gemini-flash"
    }
  }
}

Model ID Format

Use full provider/model ID to avoid conflicts with proxies:

# Format: provider/model-id
local-llm/alibaba/qwen-max
anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-6
google/gemini-2.5-pro
openai/gpt-4o

Run /sdlc-choose list or pi --list-models to see available IDs.

Environment Override

export SDLC_TIER=budget
SDLC_TIER=high pi "/skill:sdlc-spec"

Status Bar

Shows SDLC: {tier} when .sdlc/config.json exists.
