> What's the best way to use it with Pi, OpenRouter?

I can't claim it's "the best"...

But the Pi.dev and OpenRouter combo is what I'm doing at home, and I love it. Setup was easy, I can use /model to switch between any of the openrouter models and whatever I'm hosting locally via VLLM.

Open router is a 5% tax? If you use it seriously may as well skip it
I don't have an LLM-positive culture at work. I'm on a bit of an island. Or under a rock.

Anyhow, I'm pulling myself up by my own bootstraps.

For me a 5% overhead is fine... if it gives me better visibility of this rapidly moving field.

OpenCode Go is hard to beat, $10/mo ($5 first month) for up to $60 worth of tokens if used regularly. And no, you don't need to use opencode, they allow any software to use it.
I only use local models myself personally. But yeah, OpenRouter would probably be a good option.
