Answers from the documentation; checking which model is on duty
Hi - I answer from the OpenSmartRoute documentation: routing, the API, plans and quotas, self-hosting. Ask away, or open a support ticket if you need a person.
Grounded in the docs - follow a source before acting on it.

Generated from the reference model catalogue (the OpenRouter listing) - regenerated daily as the line-up and prices change. Import it with registry://<slug>@<version> or osr stack apply; every target answers on https://openrouter.ai/api/v1 with your own key.

Use it
Copy one of these into your project. Installing also returns the manifest and these snippets.
Install Perplexity tiers 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.
