Settings
taskclan.apiBase — base URL for the OpenAI-compat endpoint. Defaults to https://engine.taskclan.com/api/openai/v1. Override for staging.
taskclan.defaultTier — which tier @taskclan uses without a slash command. Defaults to t1-auto (router picks per prompt).
taskclan.maxTokens — cap on output tokens per reply. Higher = longer answers but more credits.
What runs where
T1 Auto (default) — router reads your prompt and picks the tier.
T1 Core — fast + cheap, Haiku-class.
T1 Flow — balanced default, Sonnet-class.
T1 Max — deep reasoning, extended thinking, PDFs, prompt caching.
Every reply shows which tier actually ran, how many credits it cost, and your remaining balance.
Billing
Metered against your Taskclan wallet. Top up at platform.taskclan.com/billing. If you run out mid-session, the reply ends with a top-up link — no surprise overages.
