opusplan Recommender
Most users default to Sonnet for everything. That's wasteful for extraction (use Haiku) and risky for deep design work (use Opus or opusplan). Describe what you're about to do, and we'll point at the right one.

See tiersWhen each model wins
- Haiku — extraction, classification, formatting, paraphrase, lookups. ~15× cheaper than Opus.
- Sonnet — the default workhorse. Code review, multi-step reasoning, mid-sized rewrites.
- Opus — novel synthesis, hard reasoning, system design, security audits, complex algorithms.
- opusplan — Opus plans, Sonnet executes. Best for broad multi-step work with subagents.
