# Openrouter Fallback Config
## Overview
This skill demonstrates how to configure and implement model fallback chains that automatically switch to backup models on failure.
## Prerequisites
- OpenRouter integration
- Multiple suitable models identified
- Understanding of your latency/cost requirements
## Instructions
Follow these steps to implement this skill:
1. **Verify Prerequisites**: Ensure all prerequisites listed above are met
2. **Review the Implementation**: Study the code examples and patterns below
3. **Adapt to Your Environment**: Modify configuration values for your setup
4. **Test the Integration**: Run the verification steps to confirm functionality
5. **Monitor in Production**: Set up appropriate logging and monitoring
## Output
Successful execution produces:
- Working OpenRouter integration
- Verified API connectivity
- Example responses demonstrating functionality
