Zero-Token Routing: Measuring How Much LLM Cost a Learned Skill-vs-Model Router Saves at Fixed Task Quality
TL;DR — A closed-form economic model of three-arm agent routing - a zero-token deterministic skill arm, a small self-hosted model, and a frontier API model - under a fixed task-quality constraint shows that the cost-minimizing policy saturates the skill arm on every supported task, that a coverage threshold kappa* (about 73% at a 10% quality tolerance under assumed… See the full description on the dataset page: https://huggingface.co/datasets/thaki-AI/daily-paper-2026-08-28-zero-token-router-cost-quality.flan2022-zeroshot-task-token-inpt-outp-50000-16-taskszero-token-soul
Has Your Agent Ever Gone Silent?
API balance ran out. DeepSeek hit rate limit. OpenAI went down. Your agent was 80% done — then silence.
Your users don't understand infrastructure. They just know "it broke again." Three strikes and they're gone.
What Zero Token Does
Not a "backup plan." Not a "degraded fallback." It's invisible takeover.
The second your main model dies, 13 free LLMs are already running. Same agent personality. Same decisions. Same voice. Your users won't… See the full description on the dataset page: https://huggingface.co/datasets/ilanguage/zero-token-soul.flan2022-zeroshot-task-token-inpt-outp-100000flan2022-zeroshot-task-token-inpt-outp-100000-16-tasksflan2022-zeroshot-task-token-inpt-outp-400000
