# OpenClaw LLM Router 🧠

**Unified LLM Gateway for autonomous agents. Powered by AIsa.**

One API key. 70+ models. OpenAI-compatible.

Replace 100+ API keys with one. Access GPT-4, Claude-3, Gemini, Qwen, Deepseek, Grok, and more through a unified, OpenAI-compatible API.

## 🔥 What Can You Do?

### Multi-Model Chat
```
"Chat with GPT-4 for reasoning, switch to Claude for creative writing"
```

### Model Comparison
```
"Compare responses from GPT-4, Claude, and Gemini for the same question"
```

### Vision Analysis
```
"Analyze this image with GPT-4o - what objects are in it?"
```

### Cost Optimization
```
"Route simple queries to fast/cheap models, complex queries to GPT-4"
```

### Fallback Strategy
```
"If GPT-4 fails, automatically try Claude, then Gemini"
```

### Python SDK Usage

```python
from llm_router_client import LLMRouterClient

client = LLMRouterClient()  # Uses AISA_API_KEY env var

# Simple chat
response = client.chat(
    model="gpt-4.1",
    messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Hello!"}]
)
print(response["choices"][0]["message"]["content"])

# With options
response = client.chat(
    model="claude-3-sonnet",
    messages=[
        {"role": "system", "content": "You are a helpful assistant."},
        {"role": "user", "content": "Explain relativity."}
