/install spendex-ai-router
Description
Smart AI router — automatically picks the best & cheapest LLM for every prompt. BYOK, tracks costs, enforces budgets. Supports 25+ providers.
Usage Guidance
This skill will send any user prompt you give it to Spendex's APIs — you must trust Spendex with the plaintext of prompts (including any sensitive content). Before installing: confirm the Spendex domain (spendex.ai / app.spendexai.com), review their privacy/security policy and how they store/rotate your provider keys, only set SPENDEX_API_KEY in a secure environment, avoid sending secrets in prompts, and consider whether you want a third party to see your prompts or host your provider keys in their dashboard.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: spendex-ai-router
Version: 1.0.0
The skill is a legitimate integration for the Spendex AI routing service (spendexai.com), designed to optimize LLM costs and track usage. It uses standard curl and jq commands to interact with API endpoints for chat completions, budget management, and usage analytics, with all behaviors aligning strictly with its stated purpose as an AI cost-management tool.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name/description (LLM router, cost-tracking, BYOK) matches the instructions: all examples call Spendex endpoints and the README tells users to add provider keys in the Spendex dashboard. Required binaries (curl, jq) and required env var (SPENDEX_API_KEY) are appropriate for an HTTP-based router.
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md explicitly instructs the agent to POST prompts to Spendex API endpoints and to query Spendex for balances/usage. It does not attempt to read unrelated files, other env vars, or system config. Note: routing prompts to a third party means user-provided prompts (which may contain sensitive data) will be sent to Spendex — this is expected behavior but an important privacy consideration.
Install Mechanism
Instruction-only skill with no install spec or downloaded code. This is low-risk: nothing is written to disk or installed by the skill itself.
Credentials
Only SPENDEX_API_KEY is required. The SKILL.md does not request provider API keys directly (it tells users to configure them in Spendex dashboard), so environment/credential requests are minimal and proportional.
Persistence & Privilege
always is false and the skill does not request persistent system-level configuration or other skills' credentials. Normal autonomous invocation is allowed (disable-model-invocation=false) but that is the platform default and not by itself a red flag.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install spendex-ai-router - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/spendex-ai-router - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
