Symbiont
A self-sustaining AI orchestrator that manages its own compute costs through intelligent LLM routing.
Architecture
- Router: Classifies tasks and dispatches to the cheapest capable model
- Dispatcher: Executes tasks via Claude Code CLI (Pro account) with fallback tiers
- Ledger: Tracks every inference call, cost, and associated revenue
- Scheduler: Handles rate-limit backoff and self-waking timers
Model Tiers
| Tier | Model | Use Case |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Haiku | Classification, extraction, simple formatting |
| 2 | Sonnet | Content writing, code gen, analysis |
| 3 | Opus | Strategic decisions, complex reasoning, QA |
Setup
- Authenticate Claude Code CLI:
