Model Selection Guide
Choose the right model for the task:
| Task Type | Model | Why | |-----------|-------|-----| | General coding | Sonnet | Best balance of speed/quality | | Complex architecture | Opus | Deep reasoning, long context | | Quick fixes | Haiku | Fast, efficient | | Code exploration | Haiku (Explore) | Optimized for search | | Documentation | Sonnet | Good writing quality | | Bug investigation | Sonnet/Opus | Depends on complexity |
Cost Efficiency
| Model | Relative Cost | Best For | |-------|---------------|----------| | Haiku | $ | Quick tasks, exploration | | Sonnet | $$ | Most development work | | Opus | $$$ | Complex problems |
Daily Workflow with Stats
Morning Routine
1. /stats # Check streak, plan day
2. /usage # Check remaining budget
3. /rename feature-x # Name today's session
4. Start coding # Use appropriate model
During Development
# After complex task
/context # Check context usage
# When switching tasks
/stats # Quick progress check
End of Day
/stats # Review productivity
/usage # Check usage remaining
/cost # See session cost
Usage Optimization Strategies
If Usage is High
- Use Haiku more - For exploration and quick tasks
- Spawn Explore agents - Uses efficient Haiku model
- Background tasks - Don't consume extra tokens
- Be more targeted - Specific queries use less context
If Starting Fresh Week
- Plan major tasks - Allocate Opus for complex work
- Default to Sonnet - Best general-purpose model
- Reserve Haiku - For quick lookups and exploration
Maximizing Efficiency
# Good: Specific query
"Fix the null check on line 45 of auth.ts"
# Bad: Vague query (uses more context/tokens)
"Help me with the auth system"
Tracking by Feature
Use named sessions to track usage per feature:
# Start feature work
/rename billing-feature
# Work on feature...
# Check stats
/stats # See usage for this session
# Compare features
"How many tokens did billing vs auth use?"
Weekly Review Pattern
Every Friday:
1. /stats # Review week's usage
2. /usage # Check budget status
3. Note completions # What features finished?
4. Plan next week # Allocate model usage
Weekly Goals Template
Week Goals:
- [ ] Maintain 5-day streak
- [ ] Complete 3 features
- [ ] Use Opus only for architecture decisions
- [ ] Try Explore agent for research tasks
- [ ] Stay under 80% usage
Integration with Other Skills
With Session Manager
# Track stats per named session
/rename billing-feature
[work on feature]
/stats
# See usage specific to this session
With Context Manager
# Monitor both context and usage
/context # Current context budget
/stats # Overall usage patterns
With Async Runner
# Background tasks don't inflate usage
"Run build in background"
# Build output doesn't use tokens
Gamification Ideas
Streak Challenges
- 5-day streak: Bronze
- 10-day streak: Silver
- 30-day streak: Gold
- Try to never break your streak!
Model Efficiency Challenge
Challenge: Complete task with Haiku
1. Try Haiku first for any task
2. Escalate to Sonnet only if needed
3. Use Opus sparingly for max impact
Weekly Competition (Team)

CircleTel Productivity Patterns
Feature Development Session
Start: /rename feature-customer-billing
/stats # Baseline
Middle: [coding work]
/context # Check context
End: /stats # Compare to baseline
/cost # Session cost
Bug Fix Session
/rename BUG-1234-fix
/stats # Note starting point
[investigation and fix]
/stats # See investigation cost
# Typically: Sonnet for analysis, quick fixes
Architecture Planning
/rename architecture-review
# Use Opus for deep thinking
"Think about the best approach for..."
/stats # Higher usage expected
/cost # Worth it for good architecture
Best Practices
- Check stats daily - Start with
/stats - Match model to task - Don't use Opus for simple fixes
- Track by feature - Use named sessions
- Review weekly - Adjust workflow based on patterns
- Use Haiku for exploration - Spawn Explore agents
- Background for builds - Don't waste tokens on output
- Targeted queries - Specific questions = efficient usage
Troubleshooting
Stats seem wrong
# Check current session specifically
/cost
# Check usage for period
/usage
High usage unexpectedly
- Check for large file reads
- Review if background tasks are actually background
- Consider if queries could be more specific
Streak reset
- Streak requires at least one interaction per day
- Even
/statscounts - Check timezone (UTC-based)
