# OpenRouter Context Optimization
## Overview
OpenRouter models have varying context windows (4K to 1M+ tokens). Since pricing is per-token, stuffing unnecessary context wastes money and can degrade output quality. This skill covers context window lookup, token estimation, conversation trimming, chunking strategies, and Anthropic prompt caching for large contexts.
## Prerequisites
- An OpenRouter API key (`sk-or-v1-...`) exported as `OPENROUTER_API_KEY` — see the `openrouter-install-auth` skill for setup
- Python 3.8+ with the OpenAI SDK and `requests` for model-metadata lookup; `tiktoken` for exact token counting per the references
- `curl` and `jq` to query context windows and pricing from `/api/v1/models`
- Node.js 18+ if you use the TypeScript context-budget calculator in the references
