SDAS L1: Prerequisite Baseline
The foundation research that determines whether your agentic system will cost $200/month or $5,000/month - model allocation, hybrid architectures, and the prerequisite checklist that separates viable SDAS implementations from expensive experiments
The SDAS prerequisite baseline - covering mixed-model allocation strategies (Haiku for orchestration, Sonnet/Opus for expert reasoning), hybrid architecture patterns for cost optimization, quality impact analysis across task types, the three-tier resource allocation framework, local micro-LLM integration points, and the complete environmental prerequisites for launching a Spec-Driven Agentic System.

When GitHub released spec-kit with a four-phase sequential process, SDAS was already running parallel multi-agent networks - this analysis maps exactly where the approaches converge, where they diverge, and how combining them creates something neither achieves alone
The economic analysis that produced the hybrid two-tier system - 'Consultant Killer' mode for high-value parallel execution and 'Daily Driver' mode for routine sequential work, with a decision framework that determines which mode to use based on project value and time savings
