An agent swarm has spent three days porting code to Rust and Go from sparse sources; the results are still badly broken.

A useful caution that agent-driven ports need strong tests and substantial debugging, even with an exhaustive test suite.

Use a cheap model to route an agent run, then optionally re-route after each tool result via a custom hook.

You can lower agent costs by routing dynamically while keeping a stronger model on the full run.
