openrouter-sdk-patterns

To integrate the OpenRouter API, you initialize a client using the OpenAI SDK in Python or TypeScript, pointing the base URL to OpenRouter. This skill provides the foundational patterns for both environments to handle synchronous, asynchronous, and streaming LLM API calls.

Handling OpenRouter API errors involves implementing robust error management strategies for rate limiting and authentication failures. This skill provides production-ready patterns including specific retry logic to gracefully recover from these common API issues.

Yes, OpenRouter SDK patterns are designed for production applications requiring robust LLM API integration with multiple providers. They supply the necessary client initialization and error handling logic to ensure reliable interactions at scale.

Setting up streaming chat completions with the OpenRouter API in Node.js involves configuring the OpenAI SDK for streaming responses. This skill demonstrates how to initialize the TypeScript client and implement streaming API calls for real-time text generation.

Your OpenRouter API integration fails under high concurrency because it lacks robust retry logic to handle transient API errors. Implementing the error management and retry patterns provided by this skill ensures reliable request handling during rate limiting.

No, you do not need a specific OpenRouter SDK dependency; you utilize the standard OpenAI SDK for API interactions. This skill leverages the OpenAI SDK to establish client initialization and manage requests across both Python and TypeScript environments.
