Logic-Based Routing Engine for Open-Source LLMs

Project Overview

This project implements an intelligent routing system that automatically directs user queries to the most suitable open-source Large Language Model (LLM) based on classified intent. The system prioritizes cost-efficiency, latency, and context relevance while maintaining consistency across different models through carefully tuned system prompts.
