### Description (declared)

# Open Bridge

![OpenRouter API](https://img.shields.io/badge/OpenRouter-API-blue.svg)

A lightweight MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that enables AI coding assistants to interact with OpenRouter API. Works with Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, and other MCP-compatible clients.

## ✨ Features

- **Direct OpenRouter API Integration**: Async HTTP calls using httpx
- **Simple MCP Tools**: Three core functions for queries, file analysis, and batch processing
- **Stateless Operation**: No sessions, caching, or complex state management
- **Production Ready**: Robust error handling with configurable timeouts (default: 90 seconds)
- **Minimal Dependencies**: httpx, python-dotenv, and mcp>=1.0.0
- **Async/Await**: Full async support for concurrent operations
- **Model Flexibility**: Support any OpenRouter-compatible model

## 🚀 Quick Start

### Prerequisites

1. **Get OpenRouter API Key**:
   ```bash
   # Visit https://openrouter.ai/keys
   # Sign up and get your API key
   ```

2. **Set Environment Variable**:
   ```bash
   export OPENROUTER_API_KEY="your-api-key-here"
   ```

### Installation

**Local Development:**
```bash
# Create virtual environment
python3 -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate

# Install dependencies
pip install -e .

# Run directly
python -m src
```

**Using uvx (from local directory):**
```bash
uvx --from /path/to/open-bridge open-bridge
```

## ⚙️ Configuration

### Environment Variables

| Variable | Required | Default | Description |
