Models

BDL IDE supports model routing for different workflows.

Fast model usage

Use fast models for:

  • simple edits
  • quick summaries
  • short refactors

Deep model usage

Use stronger reasoning models for:

  • architecture planning
  • multi-file refactors
  • debugging complex flows

Selection strategy

Start fast, then escalate only when needed. This keeps latency low while preserving quality.
