# Openrouter Caching Strategy

## Overview

This skill covers caching strategies from simple LRU caches to semantic similarity caching for intelligent response reuse.

## Prerequisites

- OpenRouter integration
- Caching infrastructure (Redis recommended for production)

## Instructions

Follow these steps to implement this skill:

1. **Verify Prerequisites**: Ensure all prerequisites listed above are met
2. **Review the Implementation**: Study the code examples and patterns below
3. **Adapt to Your Environment**: Modify configuration values for your setup
4. **Test the Integration**: Run the verification steps to confirm functionality
5. **Monitor in Production**: Set up appropriate logging and monitoring

## Output

Successful execution produces:
- Working OpenRouter integration
- Verified API connectivity
- Example responses demonstrating functionality

## Error Handling
