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.

Real Developer Refactoring Standard

When resolving linter errors, type-check failures, or bugs, do not use superficial "band-aid" fixes (e.g., casting to any/unknown, using ts-ignore, or mildly altering mutable state). Instead, act as a senior software engineer:

Strict Typing: Always trace and import the exact domain models (interfaces/types) rather than using generic objects or Record types.
Structural Integrity: If a function relies on complex mutable state (let variables reassigned in massive if/else blocks), refactor the logic. Use helper functions, pure functions, or Immediately Invoked Function Expressions (IIFEs) to return const objects.
Declarative over Imperative: Prioritize declarative patterns. If you touch a piece of code to fix a bug, leave the surrounding function cleaner and more robust than you found it.

# after Install: the listing is in your workspace's routing pool - a plan picks it for its slot 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}'

Install .agents 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.
