+### Cost vs Quality Visual
+
+The raw model (v4 Pro, full thinking) sets the quality baseline. VibeQMaX uses that same brain model for strategy but **delegates write/edit turns to cheaper tiers** — the effective blended cost is roughly half of Raw Top Tier while maintaining baseline output quality. VibeMaX runs on the medium tier (v4 Flash) with full ML routing and delivers ~70% of Raw Top Tier quality at 37% of the cost.

+```
+
+### Branded Modes
+
+**VibeQMaX (Quality Max)** — The highest-assurance configuration. Routes strategic turns through `deepseek/deepseek-v4-pro` with full thinking, strict enforcement, strict flow checks, and quality TDD. Write/edit turns are delegated to cheaper tiers per enforcement rules, yielding an **effective blended cost of ~$0.00029/turn (≈50% of Raw Top Tier)**. Guardrails include: delegation enforcement blocks costly mistakes, flow pattern validation prevents structural issues, TDD skeleton generation ensures test coverage, and context7 optimization reduces context waste. VibeQMaX maps to the system's **quality** mode — brain-tier settings with the full vibeOS control plane active.
+
+**VibeMaX (ML-Optimized)** — The intelligent cost-quality sweet spot. Routes through `deepseek/deepseek-v4-flash` (medium tier) and uses a random forest classifier (29 trees, gini-split, trained on telemetry) to decide each turn whether to apply optimized (full quality) or budget (fast/cheap) treatment. Classifies on 11 derived features: message length, code block density, urgency signals, complexity, instruction density, question ratio, and more. Trained via `trainVibeMaXModelFromTelemetry()` on real session data with bootstrap fallback. PivotCache integration detects return-to-workflow patterns and restores prior context. Benchmarked at **~70% of Raw Top Tier quality at 37% of the cost**.
+
+### Benchmark Details
+
+All tests run with `deepseek/deepseek-v4-pro` (brain), `deepseek/deepseek-v4-flash` (medium), and `deepseek/deepseek-chat` (budget). Quality scores measured against Raw Top Tier (v4 Pro, full thinking, no vibeOS overhead). VibeMaX quality benchmark derived from real session telemetry with bootstrap confidence intervals.
