Use when a task is already judged hard — pick which paid frontier seat takes it, then keep Jev watching the delegated run so it interrupts you only when the run needs a decision.

# Handing hard work to a frontier model, and watching it

Frontier seats are bought for frontier work. Everything else goes to a cheap model, and
that is not a compromise — it is the reason there is quota left when something genuinely
hard arrives.

Two jobs here: pick the seat, then keep an eye on the run.

## 1. Pick the seat

Only for work the router called **hard**, or that reached the `escalate` lane on evidence
(`jev lane step` said escalate: the lane below failed twice, checks keep failing, security
code changed, or Jev was unsure). Never because a stronger model exists. If you are about to
use a frontier seat for a rename, a lookup, a format, or a summary, stop.
