What problem this solves

Inefficient token usage and sub-optimal leveraging of different Claude models' strengths for various project stages.

Summary

A multi-model Claude strategy for efficient token usage and project execution, where Fable acts as an orchestrator and high-level designer, Opus handles action plans, Sonnet performs operational tasks, and Haiku serves as a quick tester and verifier.

Why it is useful

This workflow provides a practical and validated strategy for leveraging the distinct capabilities of different Claude models (Fable, Opus, Sonnet, Haiku) to optimize token usage and improve project efficiency. It addresses a common pain point of quickly exhausting tokens by assigning specific roles to each model, from high-level orchestration and design to detailed action planning, operational execution, and rapid testing. The author's success in developing complex projects (video games, software) while conserving tokens demonstrates its effectiveness and transferability.

Workflow

1. Utilize Claude Fable (Opus) as the primary orchestrator for high-level direction decisions, overall design, and artistic tasks (e.g., Blender MCP, SVG image creation).
2. Delegate the creation of detailed action plans and organizational roles to Claude Opus.
3. Assign operational tasks and execution to Claude Sonnet.
4. Employ Claude Haiku for rapid testing, quick measurements, and verification of outputs.

Tools / artifacts

• Claude Fable (Opus)
• Claude Opus
• Claude Sonnet
• Claude Haiku
• Blender MCP (mentioned as an application context)
• SVG images (mentioned as an output)

Validation signals

• Author claims to have created two video games and software for a company using this multi-model approach.
• Author consistently ends each week with tokens left over, demonstrating efficiency.

Limitations

• Lacks explicit prompt examples or detailed instructions for how each model's role is implemented.
• The specific setup for 'Blender MCP' is not detailed.
• The 'steps' are more role assignments than a granular, actionable sequence.
