AI Stupid Level Smart Router — OpenAI-compatible; routing modes such as auto-tooling send each request to the model currently scoring best on continuously re-run benchmarks, called with your own provider keys.

## Good to know before installing

Sends your prompts, tool definitions, tool results and ASL_ROUTER_KEY to aistupidlevel.info (S.C. Studio Platforms S.R.L.), which forwards each request to the AI provider it routes to using the provider keys you store on your AI Stupid Level account; model usage is billed to your provider accounts, and prompts are logged only if you enable logging for a key.

From the plugin's catalog listing.

## How to install

1. Install it. Hermes asks for any API keys it needs (this one needs `ASL_ROUTER_KEY`), then asks whether to turn it on.

```bash
hermes plugins install aistupidlevel
```

2. Said no? Turn it on later:

```bash
hermes plugins enable aistupidlevel
```

3. Restart Hermes so it loads the plugin.

Some plugins also need a sign-in or settings: see the official page. Memory plugins ask whether to become your memory provider instead. Steps follow the official plugins guide: https://hermes-agent.nousresearch.com/docs/user-guide/features/plugins
