Meaning anchors
Anchor | Summary | Operator note |
|---|---|---|
Models are boundary choices | A model row matters because it defines where company context is sent, not only what it costs. | That is the abstraction security needs first. |
Concentration is meaning | When one model lane dominates spend and significant work, that concentration should be obvious immediately. | The raw pricing table can come later. |
Model detail should connect policy and usage | The right page tells security what this lane usually carries and what makes one workload different. | That is more valuable than context-window trivia alone. |
Priority queue
Story | Summary | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
claude-sonnet-4-6 | Dominant model lane for meaningful sessions, spend, and boundary traffic. | This is the external provider story the dashboard keeps returning to. |
Haiku automation lane | High volume but low consequence baseline. | Useful contrast against the dominant developer model lane. |
Legacy model use | Compatibility and drift story. | Follow-up after the dominant model lane is understood. |
