Models

Gluon’s built-in catalog: facts about each model, not configuration. The Id is what the intake agent proposes and --launch --model takes; the connection columns are the id each connection’s API or plan uses (— : not served there). Which of these the intake agent may propose is decided per machine by a check (gluon doctor); how it decides is in Connections.

Anthropic’s own harness. Strongest general coding agent; best for multi-file features, debugging and refactors.

  • Binary: claude (Anthropic)
  • Connections: Claude plan (subscription), Anthropic, Amazon Bedrock, OpenRouter
  • Modes besides build: explore: supported; plan: supported

Sonnet 5.5 sonnet sonnet claude-sonnet-5-5 global.anthropic.claude-sonnet-5-5 anthropic/claude-sonnet-5.5 low, medium, high, xhigh, max high strong and mid-priced; default for most everyday tasks
Opus 5.5 opus opus claude-opus-5-5 global.anthropic.claude-opus-5-5 anthropic/claude-opus-5.5 low, medium, high, xhigh, max medium most capable, expensive; hard debugging, design, large changes

Moonshot AI’s harness on Kimi K3 and K2.7 Code, on a Moonshot or OpenRouter API key, or the Kimi Code plan. Good for long agentic coding tasks at a modest price.

  • Binary: kimi (Moonshot AI)
  • Connections: Kimi Code plan (subscription), Moonshot AI, OpenRouter
  • Modes besides build: explore: unavailable (its interactive mode ignores an agent file, so no flag can take its writing and shell tools away; use plan mode, or build); plan: supported
