Openrouter Picker

One install: the Desktop model picker and the OR Picker composer provider. Checking a model here is what the composer lists.

Good to know before installing

The optional OpenRouter management key is stored in plaintext in Desktop localStorage; the plugin reads OPENROUTER_API_KEY from your environment, Hermes secret store or HERMES_HOME/.env and sends it only to openrouter.ai (credits, usage, and the Test-model button, which spends credits).

From the plugin's catalog listing.

How to install

  1. Install it. Hermes asks for any API keys it needs (this one needs OPENROUTER_API_KEY), then asks whether to turn it on.
    hermes plugins install openrouter-picker
  2. Said no? Turn it on later:
    hermes plugins enable openrouter-picker
  3. Restart Hermes so it loads the plugin.

Some plugins also need a sign-in or settings: see Full setup & settings. Memory plugins ask whether to become your memory provider instead. Steps follow the official plugins guide (opens in a new tab).
