   How do you handle provider variance on OpenRouter for the opensource models? Or do you use your own hosted version to mitigate this?

   And for both opensource and closed source, does the router account for provider quality, or catch it when a provider degrades?

      For our hosted version we carefully select which providers we use (we don't use OpenRouter). For the self-hosted version though, OpenRouter does make it much easier to get started (at the cost of that variance potentially affecting quality).

      Yes for both! We have some logic to put providers on cooldowns and/or deprioritize them.
