Hand the extracted package to your coding agent with a concrete install brief instead of figuring it out manually.
I downloaded a skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder and install it by following the included instructions. Tell me what you changed and call out any manual steps you could not complete.
I downloaded an updated skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder, compare it with my current installation, and upgrade it while preserving any custom configuration unless the package docs explicitly say otherwise. Summarize what changed and any follow-up checks I should run.
This skill guides users through configuring OpenRouter as their LLM provider on this AgentBox instance. OpenRouter gives access to models from Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, Meta, and others through a single API key.
Invoke this when the user: Wants to use a model through OpenRouter (e.g., "I want to use Claude Sonnet 4.5") Asks about configuring a different LLM provider Mentions OpenRouter Wants access to models not available through the default blockrun provider
Ask the user if they have an OpenRouter account. If not, guide them: To use OpenRouter, you'll need an account and API key: Go to https://openrouter.ai and sign up (Google/GitHub login works) Go to https://openrouter.ai/keys Click "Create Key" Copy the key (starts with sk-or-) Let me know when you have your API key.
Ask the user to provide their API key. It should start with sk-or-.
If the user already specified a model, use that. Otherwise, recommend: Recommended: Claude Sonnet 4.5 (openrouter/anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-5) - best balance of capability and cost for most tasks. Other popular options: openrouter/anthropic/claude-opus-4-6 - most capable, higher cost openrouter/openai/gpt-4o - OpenAI's flagship openrouter/google/gemini-2.5-pro - Google's best Which model would you like as your default?
Read the current config, modify it, and write it back: # Read current config cat ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json Use jq to update the config. The two fields to set: env.OPENROUTER_API_KEY - the API key agents.defaults.model.primary - the default model jq --arg key "sk-or-USER_KEY_HERE" \ --arg model "openrouter/anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-5" \ '.env.OPENROUTER_API_KEY = $key | .agents.defaults.model.primary = $model' \ ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json > /tmp/openclaw-update.json \ && mv /tmp/openclaw-update.json ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json IMPORTANT: Always read the full config first, then modify. Never write a partial config file.
openclaw gateway restart Wait a few seconds, then verify: openclaw status
Tell the user the setup is complete and their default model is now set to the chosen OpenRouter model. Suggest they send a test message to verify everything works.
OpenRouter models use the format openrouter/<provider>/<model>: openrouter/anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-5 openrouter/anthropic/claude-opus-4-6 openrouter/anthropic/claude-haiku-3-5 openrouter/openai/gpt-4o openrouter/openai/o1 openrouter/google/gemini-2.5-pro openrouter/meta-llama/llama-3.3-70b-instruct Full model list at https://openrouter.ai/models
To change the default model without re-entering the API key: jq --arg model "openrouter/anthropic/claude-opus-4-6" \ '.agents.defaults.model.primary = $model' \ ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json > /tmp/openclaw-update.json \ && mv /tmp/openclaw-update.json ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json openclaw gateway restart
"Invalid API key": Verify the key starts with sk-or- and has credit on https://openrouter.ai/credits Model not responding: Check if the model is available on https://openrouter.ai/models - some models have downtime Config broken after edit: The issue is usually malformed JSON. Read the file with cat ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json | jq . to check syntax Changes not taking effect: Must run openclaw gateway restart after any config change
