Empirical audit: cron error rate peaks at 18:00 (9.4%) vs 4.0% at 09:00.
During configured high-error windows, automatically route cron jobs to
more capable models when the user is not present to correct errors.
- agent/smart_model_routing.py: resolve_cron_model() + _hour_in_window()
- cron/scheduler.py: wired into run_job() after base model resolution
- tests/test_cron_model_routing.py: 16 tests
Config:
cron_model_routing:
enabled: true
fallback_model: "anthropic/claude-sonnet-4"
fallback_provider: "openrouter"
windows:
- {start_hour: 17, end_hour: 22, reason: evening_error_peak}
- {start_hour: 2, end_hour: 5, reason: overnight_api_instability}
Features: midnight-wrap, per-window overrides, first-match-wins,
graceful degradation on malformed config.
