A local-first agent and CLI that routes each phase of an AI workflow to the most suitable model using deterministic, configurable policies.

Overview

In 2026 most developers no longer use a single model or a single provider. Switching between CLIs, web apps and providers — copying context around and remembering which model to use for each task — is slow and error-prone.

smista.ai keeps one coherent workflow while letting different models handle different phases. Its main differentiator is deterministic multi-model routing: routing never depends on an LLM's judgment, and every decision is explainable through a trace.

It is not a clone of Claude Code or Codex. It provides the core primitives of a modern coding/text agent — prompt templates, plan mode, skills, tool permissions, context management, diff and review, traceability — on top of deterministic routing.
