Match the model to the work type
Models are attached at the context profile level, so you can attach the model's personality to the type of work at hand.
Context Profiles
Every kind of work deserves its own way of thinking.
Context Profiles bring the right sources, standards, skills, and review posture into each Thread, giving the workforce the focus each domain requires.
Model Agnostic
Any provider, any model,
any time.
Switch instantly
Switch out models instantly between providers any time at the context profile level.
Instant adversarial reviews from any model inside threads
Ask for the reviewing model to come from a different provider than the one that wrote the code, so the work is not checked by the same intelligence that produced it.
Your organization sets which models are allowed
The approved list is an organization decision, and a project can narrow it further but never widen it. A profile naming a model outside that list does not get it.
The Brief
Give every agent a real identity and distinct purpose.
Sources are chosen, not swept up
The profile names the repos, docs, and knowledge a thread reads for this kind of work, which also means naming everything it should leave alone.
Skills come attached to the job
The capabilities this kind of work needs travel with the brief instead of being rediscovered, or missed, on every pass.
Posture matches the stakes
Every company has the same models available. What differs is the reasoning depth and the route this kind of work runs under, set once for everyone doing it inside the policy your organization already set.
Nothing arrives by accident
What Lead Dev and your specialists know is a decision your team made and can read back, not a side effect of who happened to be at the keyboard.
Quality Standards
Work comes back only after it passes the standards on its profile.

# Why the system is the way it is.
Lives in your repo
Versioned with code
Knowledge far beyond code
Consumable by agents
Lead Dev interviews you about your goals and business metrics at onboarding
From day zero, Lead Dev reads the codebase and asks your team where the business is going, then turns both into knowledge every agent inherits. Lead Dev then continues to hone and craft this knowledge with you over time, delivering more valuable decisions for the business every day.
Stop re-explaining your business and architectural reasoning
If it isn't in a format your agents can read, knowledge can't be used by your AI workforce. Codespeed centralizes your company's brain in a format Lead Dev and your specialist team can use from day zero to build value.
Leverage business knowledge that extends far beyond code and tech
Every piece of knowledge is valuable to an agent, from business context to design thinking, brand guidelines, tone of voice, analytics, customer experience strategy, and everything in between. Give your agents the knowledge they need to understand who the customer is and what the business is trying to move.
Taste and quality are teachable and enforced far beyond classic agentic skills
Agentic skills were the early-stage solution to teaching agents. Codespeed's Knowledge Protocol extends far beyond these reusable primitives into highly specialized intelligence, carefully crafted and honed by your team of agents over time.
Specialization
Every specialist is a domain expert with context profiles.
Just like your top engineering experts, Codespeed specialists focus on a precise domain deeply. Context profiles give those specialists the domain knowledge and skills they need to deliver their best work.

Model routing
Optimize token spend for frontier model capability only where you truly need it.
Routing isn't just a single decision at the start of a thread. It's intelligent adaptation during planning, execution, and review, within model boundaries your organization and context profile set.
Eliminate frontier prices for work that doesn't need it
Don't pay frontier prices for work that can be executed by cheaper models. Let Codespeed both orchestrate the work and intelligently route the right model to the right work, so you pay for what you need and not what you don't.
Codespeed quality runs on deterministic controls
Codespeed knows the difference between a model saying the work is fine and a test proving it. Unmet requirements block the work from coming back, so cheaper routing never quietly becomes lower standards.
Deep orchestration and context routing already built in
Codespeed is built on deep orchestration tools led by Lead Dev alongside context profile routing that keeps agents focused. That foundation ensures our model routing is highly intelligent and precise.
