## Introduction

### How to integrate Openrouter MCP with OpenCode
This guide explains how to connect Openrouter MCP to OpenCode using Composio Connect, which simplifies OAuth, API changes, and reliability concerns.
There are two ways to set this up:
- Via [Composio Connect MCP](https://dashboard.composio.dev/)
- Via the [Composio CLI](https://dashboard.composio.dev/)

## TL;DR

### Why use Composio?
Composio provides a single MCP server or CLI tool that exposes a set of meta-tools, allowing you to:
- Connect to 1,000+ apps with on-demand tool loading, so you do not fill your LLM context window with unnecessary tool definitions.
- Use programmatic tool calling through a remote Bash tool, letting LLMs write their own code to handle complex tool chaining. This reduces back-and-forth for frequent tool calls.
- Handle large tool responses outside the LLM context to keep conversations lean.

## Connect Openrouter to OpenCode

### Connect Openrouter with OpenCode
### Option 1: Using Composio CLI
### 1. Install Composio CLI
Install the Composio CLI, authenticate, and initialize your project:

```bash
# Install the Composio CLI
curl -fsSL https://composio.dev/install | bash

# Authenticate with Composio
composio login
```

## What is the Openrouter MCP server, and what's possible with it?

The Openrouter MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Openrouter account. It provides structured and secure access to a wide range of large language models, so your agent can generate completions, manage model access, check credits, and retrieve generation details seamlessly on your behalf.
- Unified model completions: Let your agent generate chat-based or text completions using any model available through Openrouter, perfect for conversation or content creation tasks.
- Model catalog and provider discovery: Ask your agent to list all available AI models and providers, helping you compare capabilities, endpoints, and pricing in real time.
- Credit monitoring and usage tracking: Have your agent fetch your current API credit balance, so you always know your usage limits before starting new tasks.
- Generation result retrieval: Direct your agent to pull detailed metadata for any previous generation, including token counts, costs, and latency for analysis or auditing.
- Endpoint and configuration info: Empower your agent to fetch the latest model endpoints and supported parameters, making it easy to fine-tune routing and optimize performance.

## Supported Tools

| Tool slug | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `OPENROUTER_CREATE_CHAT_COMPLETION` | Create Chat Completion | Tool to generate a chat-style completion. use after assembling messages and selecting a model. supports streaming and function calls. |
| `OPENROUTER_CREATE_COMPLETION` | Create Completion | Tool to generate a text completion for a given prompt or set of messages. use when you need a model-generated response from a specified model. |
| `OPENROUTER_GET_CREDITS` | Get Credits | Tool to get the current api credit balance for the authenticated user. use after authenticating to monitor remaining credits before making further api calls. |
| `OPENROUTER_GET_GENERATION` | Get Generation | Tool to retrieve a generation result by its unique id. use after a generation completes to fetch metadata like token counts, cost, and latency. |
| `OPENROUTER_LIST_AVAILABLE_MODELS` | List Available Models | Tool to list available models via openrouter api. use after confirming authentication to fetch the model catalog. |
| `OPENROUTER_OPENROUTER_LIST_MODEL_ENDPOINTS` | OpenRouter List Model Endpoints | Tool to list endpoints for a specific model. use after specifying model author and slug to get endpoint details including pricing, context length, and supported parameters. |
| `OPENROUTER_OPENROUTER_LIST_PROVIDERS` | OpenRouter List Providers | Tool to list all ai model providers available through the openrouter api. use after authentication to retrieve available provider options for routing configuration. |

## Supported Triggers

None listed.

## Creating MCP Server - Stand-alone vs Composio SDK

Once connected, OpenCode can access the Openrouter MCP server via Composio to run the app actions you authorize, directly from your coding workflow.

## Complete Code

None listed.

## Conclusion

### Way Forward
Now that Openrouter is connected, extend your setup by connecting the other apps you already use every day, so your agent can run true cross-app workflows end to end.
- Connect Calendar to turn threads into scheduled meetings automatically.
- Connect Slack or Teams to post summaries, approvals, and alerts where your team works.
- Connect Notion, Linear, Jira, or Asana to convert requests into tickets, tasks, and docs.
- Connect Drive, Dropbox, or OneDrive to fetch, file, and share attachments without manual steps.
Start with one workflow you do repeatedly, then keep adding apps as you find new handoffs. With everything behind a single MCP endpoint, your agent can coordinate multiple tools safely and reliably in one conversation.

## Frequently Asked Questions

### What are the differences in Tool Router MCP and Openrouter MCP?

With a standalone Openrouter MCP server, the agents and LLMs can only access a fixed set of Openrouter tools tied to that server. However, with the Composio Tool Router, agents can dynamically load tools from Openrouter and many other apps based on the task at hand, all through a single MCP endpoint.

### Can I use Tool Router MCP with OpenCode?

Yes, you can. OpenCode fully supports MCP integration. You get structured tool calling, message history handling, and model orchestration while Tool Router takes care of discovering and serving the right Openrouter tools.

### Can I manage the permissions and scopes for Openrouter while using Tool Router?

Yes, absolutely. You can configure which Openrouter scopes and actions are allowed when connecting your account to Composio. You can also bring your own OAuth credentials or API configuration so you keep full control over what the agent can do.

### How safe is my data with Composio Tool Router?

All sensitive data such as tokens, keys, and configuration is fully encrypted at rest and in transit. Composio is SOC 2 Type 2 compliant and follows strict security practices so your Openrouter data and credentials are handled as safely as possible.
