ypollak2/llm-router — Universal LLM router for AI coding tools.
Description and use
The **LLM‑Router** is a universal, open‑source routing layer that lets developers plug in multiple large‑language‑model providers—such as Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Gemini CLI, Copilot, and others—into a single, cohesive API for AI‑assisted coding tools. It implements a “free‑first” fallback chain that automatically tries lower‑cost or no‑cost models before resorting to paid services, reducing overall usage expenses by roughly 70–85 %. The project is built for backend and dev‑tool integrations, making it easy to add, prioritize, and manage LLMs across a wide range of AI coding workflows.
Problem
ypollak2/llm-router helps connect AI assistants to real tools and data through a standard protocol.
Outcome
Early or unclear: treat as research material until maintenance, releases, docs, and issue activity are verified.
Workflow
- connect AI agents to tools
- ship Model Context Protocol servers
- standardize integrations
Evidence
Universal LLM router for AI coding tools. Works with Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Gemini CLI, Copilot and more. Free-first fallback chain keeps costs 70–85% lower.
