What

Adds two live-verified models to the opencode lane table in skills/which-model/references/routing.md:

  • openrouter/meta/muse-spark-1.3 → frontier-synthesis lane + long-context heuristic (1M ctx, $1.25/$4.25, $0.15 cached input, AA Intelligence Index 62, verified against the live OpenRouter models API 2026-09-12)
  • openrouter/deepseek/deepseek-v4.1-flash → cheap-code lane, first position ($0.15/$0.60, 1M ctx, $0.003 cached)

The frontier-reservation guardrail gains Muse Spark's two operational caveats: mandatory reasoning bills hidden CoT at the output rate, and the Contributor SKU (-contributor-free, $0.10/$0.20) trains on prompts — never route customer data or proprietary source there.

Companion config change (outside the repo)

~/.config/opencode/opencode.jsonc: small_modelopenrouter/deepseek/deepseek-v4.1-flash (2× cheaper than qwen3.7-plus it replaces). Primary stays glm-5.3-flash. Muse Spark deliberately not a default — mid-tier pricing, escalation-lane only.

Verification

  • Availability: both ids present in opencode models and the OpenRouter API response (2026-09-12)
  • python3 -m unittest discover -s skills/which-model/tests — OK

Verified 2026-09-12 against the live OpenRouter models API and the
running opencode catalog: openrouter/meta/muse-spark-1.3 ($1.25/$4.25,
1M ctx, $0.15 cached input, AA index 62) joins frontier synthesis and
the long-context heuristic; openrouter/deepseek/deepseek-v4.1-flash
($0.15/$0.60, 1M ctx, $0.003 cached) leads the cheap-code lane. The
frontier-reservation rule gains the Muse Spark caveats: mandatory
reasoning bills hidden CoT at the output rate, and the Contributor SKU
trains on prompts, so it must never carry customer data.

Companion to PR #40's routing change: deepseek-v4.1-flash
($0.15/$0.60 per MTok, 1M ctx, $0.003 cached input) undercuts
qwen3.7-plus ($0.32/$1.28) on every axis. Primary model stays
glm-5.3-flash. Availability verified against opencode models and the
live OpenRouter API 2026-09-12.
