Openrouter Hello World

Overview

This skill provides a minimal working example to verify your OpenRouter integration is functioning and introduces the basic request/response pattern.

Prerequisites

OpenRouter API key configured
Python 3.8+ or Node.js 18+
OpenAI SDK installed

Instructions

Set your API key: Export OPENROUTER_API_KEY as an environment variable or add it to your .env file
Send a test completion: Make a POST request to https://openrouter.ai/api/v1/chat/completions with a simple prompt using model: "openai/gpt-3.5-turbo"
Verify the response: Confirm the response contains choices[0].message.content and usage token counts
Try a different model: Swap the model to anthropic/claude-3-haiku or google/gemma-2-9b-it:free to confirm multi-model routing works

Output

A JSON response with id, model, choices, and usage fields
Token usage breakdown (prompt_tokens, completion_tokens, total_tokens)
Confirmation that your API key and network configuration are correct

Error Handling

Error	Cause	Fix
401 Unauthorized	Invalid or missing API key	Verify key starts with `sk-or-` and is exported correctly
404 Not Found	Wrong base URL	Use `https://openrouter.ai/api/v1` (not v2)
400 Bad Request	Malformed JSON body	Check `messages` array has `role` and `content` fields
