## What it does

Reach for this skill when your code pulls `callModel`, the `tool()` factory or stop conditions such as `stepCountIs` and `hasToolCall` out of `@openrouter/sdk`. Agent features now ship in a separate package, `@openrouter/agent`, and the skill maps the move.

It carries import mapping tables: the client and `callModel`, tool creation, stop conditions, format converters, types and type guards. A before-and-after example makes the scope clear — only the import lines change, the call itself stays as it was. The `OpenRouter` client class now lives in the new package, so agent-only projects can drop the old one.

Keep `@openrouter/sdk` around if you also call the models list, chat completions, credits, OAuth or API key endpoints. Uninstalling it breaks those calls. The standalone `callModel` function needs an `OpenRouterCore` instance from `@openrouter/sdk/core`; without one that path fails.

## When to use it
- move agent imports onto the new package
- swap the old `OpenRouter` client import
- fix paths for stop conditions and format converters
- decide when both packages stay in dependencies
- update tool types and type guards

## Example prompts
- Migrate my agent code from `@openrouter/sdk` to `@openrouter/agent`
- Where do `tool()` and `stepCountIs` come from now?
- Show me the import changes for `callModel`
