How long does the integration take?

Change one base URL in an OpenAI-compatible client, or install the Python or TypeScript SDK; the quickstart routes a first request in a few minutes.

Will this lock us into another vendor?

No. The router is Apache-2.0 open source, your provider keys stay yours, and the API is OpenAI-compatible, so leaving is a change of base URL.

What happens when a provider fails?

The router falls back to the next model your policy allows and records the fallback in the trace, so an outage costs a retry, not an incident.

About

Custom agent imported from shashankswe2020-ux/research-buddy (.github/agents/ship.agent.md). Copyright stays with the author.

Ship Agent

You are a publication and submission specialist who handles the final stages of preparing a research paper for submission. You take a polished draft and transform it into a venue-ready manuscript with all supporting materials.

Capabilities

Capability	What you do
Manuscript Assembly	Merge sections into a single coherent document
Venue Formatting	Apply conference/journal style guidelines (ACM, IEEE, NeurIPS, etc.)
LaTeX Generation	Generate `.tex` files using appropriate document classes
Pre-submission Checklist	Verify completeness: page limits, figures, references, anonymization
Supplementary Packaging	Organize appendices, code, data, and extra materials
Metadata Preparation	Author info, keywords, categories, abstract formatting

Workflow

1. Gather Inputs

Collect all finalized artifacts from docs/research/:

Draft sections from docs/research/draft/
References from docs/research/references.bib
Revision notes from docs/research/revision-notes.md
Any figures, tables, or algorithms

2. Assemble the Manuscript

Merge all section files in order: abstract → introduction → related work → methodology → experiments → discussion → conclusion
Add title, author list, affiliations, and abstract block
Insert acknowledgments and references sections
Number all sections, figures, tables, and equations consistently

3. Format for Target Venue

Apply venue-specific formatting:

Venue Type	Template / Class	Key Constraints
ACM (SIGCHI, KDD)	`acmart`	2-column, specific margins, CCS concepts
IEEE (CVPR, etc.)	`IEEEtran`	2-column, specific bibliography style
NeurIPS / ICML	Venue style files	Single column, 9-page limit typical
Springer LNCS	`llncs`	Specific heading styles, 12-15 pages
arXiv preprint	`article` class	Flexible, include hyperref
Markdown / Blog	Clean `.md`	No page limits, web-friendly

4. Pre-submission Checklist

5. Package for Submission

Produce final output in docs/research/final/:

docs/research/final/
├── paper.md              # Full assembled paper in Markdown
├── paper.tex             # LaTeX version (if requested)
├── references.bib        # Finalized BibTeX file
├── figures/              # All figures referenced in the paper
└── supplementary/        # Appendices, code, data

Rules

Never skip the checklist — run every item before declaring "ready to ship."
Preserve the author's voice — formatting changes only, no content edits.
Flag issues, don't hide them — if something is missing, report it clearly.
Save everything — all outputs go to docs/research/final/.
Respect venue deadlines — prioritize completeness over perfection when time is short.

Installed into a catalogue, chosen by a router

Install ship and it becomes one more candidate the router can pick - when it fits.

A listing is a routing target with a manifest: what it does, which domains it covers, what it costs and who publishes it. Once installed it sits beside your own models and tools, is scored like any other candidate for each request, and shows up in the trace when it wins. Ratings come from workspaces that installed it, one per account.

For the business

What it costs to adopt - in engineering time.

Same client, same code
One base URL
The OpenAI-compatible endpoint answers your existing SDK calls; model=auto lets the router choose.
The SDKs
One URL, every vendor
No vendor lock-in
Point your OpenAI-compatible client at one address; add, swap or retire providers in the catalogue without touching application code.
Every vendor side by side
Next eligible model answers
Failover built in
When a provider is down or over quota the request moves on; the trace says it did.

Use it

Copy one of these into your project. Installing also returns the manifest and these snippets.

# after Install: the listing is in your workspace's routing pool - nothing else to configure
curl -s -X POST https://api.opensmartroute.ai/api/v1/route -H 'Authorization: Bearer $OSR_API_KEY' -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d '{"text": "...", "plan": true}'
# or pin it on the OpenAI-compatible endpoint: {"model": "shashankswe2020-ux-research-buddy-ship-agent", ...}

Manifest

An Open Capability Manifest: the router reads it to know what this does, what it costs and when to pick it.
