AI编程：用前沿模型做架构，廉价模型执行任务

Pay attention to the prices and what a combination of models can unlock for you.

You don't need the absolute best model for everything.

I am not that impressed with the Rust SQLite replica. A totally new and improved SQLite (or something more creative and new) could be a more interesting test.

Takeaways:

• Use a frontier model for decomposition, architecture, key design choices, and trade-offs. - Have cheaper, faster workers execute well-defined, narrow implementation tasks. - Do not have planners implement or workers make broad design decisions.

Use a swarm or harness with a recursive task tree: planners break the original spec into subtrees, delegate them, and workers operate at the leaves. Cursor argues this helps mostly because each agent has a constrained context, rather than simply because many agents run in parallel. Pay extra attention to biases and failures that might emerge from poor/inefficient agent coordination.
