# Migrating from @openrouter/sdk to @openrouter/agent

Agent functionality (`callModel`, `tool()`, stop conditions, format converters, streaming helpers) has moved from `@openrouter/sdk` to the standalone `@openrouter/agent` package. The `@openrouter/agent` package includes its own `OpenRouter` client class, so you do not need `@openrouter/sdk` for agent use cases.

---

## When This Applies

Migrate if your code imports any of these from `@openrouter/sdk`:

- `callModel` or uses `client.callModel()`
- `tool()` factory function
- Stop conditions: `stepCountIs`, `hasToolCall`, `maxCost`, `maxTokensUsed`, `finishReasonIs`
- Format converters: `fromClawdMessages`, `toClawdMessage`, `fromChatMessages`, `toChatMessage`
- Types: `Tool`, `ToolWithExecute`, `ToolWithGenerator`, `ManualTool`, `CallModelInput`, `ModelResult`

---

## Quick Migration

### Step 1: Install

```bash
npm install @openrouter/agent
```

If you only use agent features, you can remove `@openrouter/sdk`:

```bash
npm uninstall @openrouter/sdk
npm install @openrouter/agent
```

If you also use non-agent SDK features (models list, chat completions, credits, OAuth, API keys), keep both packages installed.

### Step 2: Update Imports

The `OpenRouter` client class and `client.callModel()` pattern work identically. Only the import source changes:

```diff
- import OpenRouter from '@openrouter/sdk';
+ import { OpenRouter } from '@openrouter/agent';
```

The rest of your code stays the same:

```typescript
const client = new OpenRouter({ apiKey: process.env.OPENROUTER_API_KEY });

const result = client.callModel({
  model: 'openai/gpt-5-nano',
  input: 'Hello!',
});

const text = await result.getText();
```

## Complete Import Mapping

### Client & callModel

| Old | New |
|-----|-----|
| `import OpenRouter from '@openrouter/sdk'` | `import { OpenRouter } from '@openrouter/agent'` |
| `import OpenRouter, { tool, stepCountIs } from '@openrouter/sdk'` | `import { OpenRouter } from '@openrouter/agent'`<br>`import { tool } from '@openrouter/agent/tool'`<br>`import { stepCountIs } from '@openrouter/agent/stop-conditions'` |

A standalone `callModel` function is also available for advanced use cases where a pre-existing `OpenRouterCore` instance is available:

```typescript
import { callModel } from '@openrouter/agent/call-model';

// Requires an OpenRouterCore instance (from @openrouter/sdk/core)
const result = callModel(coreInstance, { model: 'openai/gpt-5-nano', input: 'Hello' });
```

For most use cases, prefer the `client.callModel()` method shown above.

### Tool Creation

| Old | New |
|-----|-----|
| `import { tool } from '@openrouter/sdk'` | `import { tool } from '@openrouter/agent/tool'` |

### Stop Conditions

| Old | New |
|-----|-----|
| `import { stepCountIs, hasToolCall, maxCost } from '@openrouter/sdk'` | `import { stepCountIs, hasToolCall, maxCost } from '@openrouter/agent/stop-conditions'` |
| `import { maxTokensUsed, finishReasonIs } from '@openrouter/sdk'` | `import { maxTokensUsed, finishReasonIs } from '@openrouter/agent/stop-conditions'` |

### Types

| Old | New |
|-----|-----|
| `import type { Tool, ToolWithExecute, ToolWithGenerator, ManualTool } from '@openrouter/sdk/lib/tool-types'` | `import type { Tool, ToolWithExecute, ToolWithGenerator, ManualTool } from '@openrouter/agent/tool-types'` |
| `import type { CallModelInput } from '@openrouter/sdk/lib/async-params'` | `import type { CallModelInput } from '@openrouter/agent/async-params'` |
| `import { ModelResult } from '@openrouter/sdk/lib/model-result'` | `import { ModelResult } from '@openrouter/agent/model-result'` |

### Format Converters

| Old | New |
|-----|-----|
| `import { fromClawdMessages, toClawdMessage } from '@openrouter/sdk'` | `import { fromClawdMessages, toClawdMessage } from '@openrouter/agent'` |
| `import { fromChatMessages, toChatMessage } from '@openrouter/sdk'` | `import { fromChatMessages, toChatMessage } from '@openrouter/agent'` |

### Type Guards

| Old | New |
|-----|-----|
| `import { hasExecuteFunction, isGeneratorTool, isRegularExecuteTool } from '@openrouter/sdk'` | `import { hasExecuteFunction, isGeneratorTool, isRegularExecuteTool } from '@openrouter/agent/tool-types'` |
