OpenRouter
The tenant's own OpenRouter key - one key that reaches hundreds of models, including open-weight ones no vendor sells directly. This is the only provider SHAI reaches through a first-party AI SDK provider package rather than an OpenAI-compatible base URL.

How SHAI connects to it
SHAI talks to it directly, with the key you paste. It is one of the tools SHAI has written up — what it costs, why it matters, what breaks without it — as `openrouter-api-key` in the tool guide.
What it needs
a key you paste, in Setup or on /connections
Nothing else. It is connectable on this deployment as it stands.

Whatever a run does with this tool goes through one door and one approval row: reading is allowed by default, anything that writes, sends or spends stops and asks first, and you can set that per tool on Connections. Plain text for this page: /integrations/openrouter/index.md.
