Shopify's Sidekick assistant uses a frontier model as orchestrator and a post-trained open-source model as its GraphQL sub-agent, according to a post by X user meng shao (@shao__meng) reporting Shopify's description.

The post says the open model's judge score rose from 37.7 to 74.5, against 73 for the frontier model on GraphQL tasks. Median response time is 0.87 seconds, versus 6.50 seconds through the frontier API, and self-hosting cuts cost about 90%. These figures come from the post, and the report does not include Shopify's own published benchmark.
