Pilotfish: Smart Model Routing for Claude Code

A lightweight config layer that automatically routes Claude Code tasks across model tiers — Fable 5 plans, cheaper models execute — so you pay for heavy intelligence only where it actually matters.

Pilotfish is a one-prompt-install orchestration layer for Claude Code that routes each task to the right Claude model automatically: Fable 5 handles planning and architecture decisions, while Opus, Sonnet, or Haiku carry out the actual implementation. The idea is that you almost never need the most expensive model for the entire session — only at the thinking stage.

Why a vibe-coder should care

If you use Claude Code by the token, this can noticeably reduce your bill without changing how you work — the heavy model fires only when planning is needed, cheaper ones handle the rest. Same output, less spend per session.
