Overview

The Economist Agent manages compute resources by prioritizing high-performance subsidized free models (Llama 3.3, Qwen 3.6) to ensure the PSF operates at zero marginal cost whenever possible.

Phase A: Demand (PRD)

1. Purpose

Minimize system-wide compute costs by aggressively routing to free tier providers.

Phase B: Blueprint (PROTOCOL)

1. Architectural Intent

Dynamically route to OpenRouter's :free model list for Reflexive and Cognitive tiers.

2. Semantic Interfaces

Routing Logic (Zero-Toll Fleet)
