 # Model capabilities — September 2026 snapshot
 
-External records are dated per section. The 2026-09-05 decision below is the
-current basis for `routing.yaml`; the earlier 2026-09-02 v4.1.1-era snapshot is
-kept as historical evidence rather than relabelled as v4.2.
+External records are dated per section. The 2026-09-22 decision below is the
+current basis for `routing.yaml`. The 2026-09-05 v4.2 decision and the
+2026-09-02 v4.1.1-era snapshot are kept as historical evidence; their scores
+are on other scales and are not comparable with the v4.3.2 figures.
+
+## Current routing decision — 2026-09-22 (AA v4.3.2)
+
+`routing.yaml` was rewritten on this date, not amended. Each lane names the
+measurements that match its kind of work, and its candidates are listed
+best-first on them. Because a caller may only dispatch to a target scoring at or
+below its own ceiling, each chain also steps down through the score range, so
+that whatever a controller's ceiling, the first candidate it can reach is the
+best one it can reach. The `score` column below is the registry's ceiling value.
+
+Sources. Registry scores: `docs/reports/aa-v4.3.2-extract-2026-09-22.json`.
+Lane measurements: `docs/reports/aa-v4.3.2-lane-metrics-2026-09-22.json`, a second
+capture of the same AA page the same day; every index value in the two files is
+identical. The page served at that capture carried no hallucination-rate field,
+so that one field comes from a capture about an hour earlier, as the file's
+`supplement` block records. The tables are generated, not typed:
+`scripts/aa_rebaseline.py lanes --extract docs/reports/aa-v4.3.2-lane-metrics-2026-09-22.json`.
+
+What the measurements are. AA's own v4.3 note says Terminal-Bench moved to 4.0 and
+AutomationBench joined the index. Terminal-Bench 2.1 is kept for reference only:
+the frontier sits between 0.87 and 0.91 on it, so it no longer separates anyone,
+while 4.0 spreads the same models from 0.2 to 0.6. Briefcase is AA's expert
+grading of finished business documents, with separate Elo scores for analytical
+quality and for presentation. `mlcrOverall` is carried in AA's page data without
+a caption; it is read here as a harder long-context benchmark because it sits
+beside AA-LCR and spreads the models that AA-LCR cannot separate. That reading is
+unverified.

+
+Why each lane is ordered this way:
+
+- **hardest-coding** follows Terminal-Bench 4.0. Astra xhigh leads it and has the
+  lowest hallucination rate among the top rows. Fable xhigh leads the saturated
+  2.1 benchmark and SciCode, and beats Fable max on 4.0 (0.551 against 0.520) at
+  about two thirds of max's run cost, so max is in no chain. Astra loses far less
+  than any other family as effort drops (low still scores 0.419, where Opus is
+  down to 0.343 by medium and Sol high sits at 0.207), which is why it supplies
+  most of the rungs.
+- **bulk-mechanical** wants routine coding per minute and per dollar. Astra low
+  costs what Sol high costs and is ahead on both coding benchmarks, in under half
+  the time, with roughly half the hallucination rate. Sol high remains for
+  callers whose ceiling is below Astra low.
+- **triage** is bought by the run. Luna high's run cost is a small fraction of any
+  other row that still reads code. Sonnet low outscores Haiku for similar money.
+- **hard-judgment** follows HLE and CritPt for reasoning and Briefcase analytical
+  Elo for written analysis; hallucination rate decides the second opinion. Fable
+  xhigh leads both reasoning measures. Astra xhigh is the independent family and
+  the least likely of the top rows to assert something false. Opus keeps its
+  analytical Elo down the effort ladder (1855 at high) where Astra does not
+  (1703). Grok 4.7's analytical Elo equals Opus max's, but its reasoning scores
+  are among the lowest in the chain, so it stays below the Opus rows.
+- **taste-final** has no benchmark, and nothing here measures Chinese phrasing.
+  The nearest evidence is Briefcase. Opus max is level with Fable overall and
+  clearly ahead on presentation. Grok 4.7 is graded above every Astra row overall,
+  so it precedes Astra. Final prose still needs human review.
+- **ui-draft** follows MMMU-Pro first and Terminal-Bench 4.0 second. Fable has no
+  published MMMU-Pro result and is left out rather than assumed.
+- **long-context** follows `mlcrOverall`, where Opus leads every other family by
+  a wide margin and keeps that lead down to low effort; AA-LCR is shown to make
+  the saturation visible. Fable max scores higher still (0.711) but at three
+  times Opus high's run cost, and it is the only Fable row with a published value.
+- **fast-agentic** follows AutomationBench and time per task. Astra low is the
+  fastest row that still scores near the top. Flash medium scores as high and is
+  the cross-vendor row; Flash low falls to 0.365. Haiku scores 0.032 and is gone.
+- **live-search**: Grok is the only native X source, and both releases hallucinate
+  less than either fallback. Opus medium replaces Sonnet because Sonnet's effort
+  rows have a negative omniscience score, more false assertions than true ones.
+- **coding-overflow** has no Codex row by design. Grok 4.7 edges 4.6 on
+  Terminal-Bench 4.0 and SciCode.
+- **consult** lists each vendor's strongest generally reachable configuration.
+
+The capability boundaries listed under 2026-09-05 still hold.

-# Claude Fable 5.1 is in the taste and hardest-coding defaults because it leads
-# Opus 5 on every Artificial Analysis axis at the same effort. It is not in
-# bulk or triage: it prices at twice Opus 5 per token and consumes the most
-# subscription quota per turn. Fable leads hard-judgment; Opus remains
-# explicitly selectable via --vendor claude --model claude-opus-5.
-# Astra defaults to xhigh; use --vendor codex --effort max when explicitly needed.
+# Fable max and Astra max are in no chain: on the measurements used above, max is never
+# more than marginally ahead of the same model's xhigh row and on hard terminal coding it
+# is behind, while xhigh takes markedly less time and money.
+# Both remain selectable with --vendor … --effort max.
 # No automatic risk escalation or failure-triggered effort upgrade is added.
