PROVIDERS

PROVIDERS is a single Chat engine over the model aggregators, in Chat — /chat?engine=providers.

PROVIDERS — Erebros

What it does

Section titled “What it does”

Wraps three aggregators — FreeInference, OpenRouter and TokenRouter — behind one engine, exposing hundreds of models including free tiers. Any single aggregator key turns the engine on. It also joins the fleet as a global-model family: a pick is addressed as providers::<aggregator>::<model>, so an aggregator model can be set as the global model in the top bar.

Key actions

Section titled “Key actions”
  • Pick an aggregator and model — from the combined catalog of hundreds of models.
  • Use free tiers — many models are available at no cost.
  • Set as global model — any aggregator model can drive the default-engine apps (Loop, Pipeline).

Setup

Section titled “Setup”

Set at least one aggregator key in .env.local, then restart the server:

  • FREEINFERENCE_API_KEY (FreeInference also serves /v1/models keyless)
  • OPENROUTER_API_KEY
  • TOKENROUTER_API_KEY (plus TOKENROUTER_URL)

Any one key is enough to enable the engine; add more to widen the catalog.

Tips

Section titled “Tips”
  • FreeInference exposes its model list without a key, so the catalog can be browsed before you commit a key.
