OK try:

• Change your AI_Service to: Direct Web Connection (URL)
• Change your LLM_URL to: https://openrouter.ai/api/v1/chat/completions
• Your model will be what you put in the Optional_model field. In this case: deepseek/deepseek-r1-0528:free should work.

Detailed instructions here

ahh no my screenshot was wrong. i wanted to post this

groq works so idk why openrouter doesnt

with https://openrouter.ai/api/v1/chat/completions i get

➤ Begin Log for: Advanced Prompt Enhancer, Node #2:
✦ INFO: Open source LLM URL saved to file.
✦ INFO: Server returned response code: 404
✦ INFO: Setting Openai client with URL, no key.
✦ INFO: Using Basic data structure
✦ INFO: Maximum tries set to: 3
✦ ERROR: Server error status: 401: {"error":{"message":"No auth credentials found","code":401}}

i went by those instructions multiple times and can't find what i did wrong

OK you need to hookup the Plush Custom API Key node to the Custom_APIKey input on Advanced Prompt Enhancer. Then enter the name of the Environment Variable that contains your Open Router api key. If you just made that Environment Variable, you may have to reboot first before it will recognize it.

Oh, I see you used LLM_KEY, sorry missed that. That should have worked even without the Custom API Key node. Are you sure your api key is valid? The reboot issue still stands, if you didn't reboot after making the Env Var.

ahhh i guess i should have rebooted (i thought i did already)
thanks alot for helping out

Ahh no worries, I'm glad it worked for you.

Just FYI, you can make a separate workflow and use Load Remote Models and 'Custom API Key' to filter and then bulk load models from OpenRouter. Models loaded this way can be easily refreshed by loading them again to keep up with new models and name changes.
