pi-jev-router at a glance
pi-jev-router is an open-source, MIT-licensed extension for the pi tool that automatically classifies a task and routes it to the most suitable OpenRouter AI model based on quality, cost, and latency.
Good for
- Developers who want coding, planning, and writing tasks automatically sent to different AI models based on the task type
- Teams who want to cap or track how much is spent on model calls during a session
- Users who want to test model routing in a shadow (recommend-only) mode before letting it actually switch models
Questions people ask
What does pi-jev-router actually do?
It classifies each task using Jev (run through OpenRouter) and then routes the task to an OpenRouter model, balancing quality, cost, and latency according to a role policy for planning, code, and writing tasks.
Does it automatically switch models, or just suggest them?
By default it runs in 'shadow' mode, meaning it only records what it would pick without switching; you can run '/router auto' or '/router auto --dry-run N' to let it actually switch models.
Can I control spending or force a specific model?
Yes, there are commands to pin a specific model ('/router pin'), set a session spending cap ('/router budget'), or turn routing off entirely ('/router off').
Is pi-jev-router free to use?
It is an open-source project released under the MIT license, hosted publicly on GitHub.

Legit.Show scored pi-jev-router 85/100 on 2026-11-03, measured across 3 of 7 frames from its public surface. legit.show/s/gh-pi-jev-router/2026-11-03
Is pi-jev-router production-ready?
Legit.Show scores pi-jev-router 85 out of 100 — the simple average of its 3 measured frames. Legit.Show ran its deterministic 7-Frame production-readiness benchmark on pi-jev-router (github assessment), measured from the public surface with no LLM in the scoring path. Its strongest frame is Standards; its weakest is Discoverability. 3 of the seven frames returned a score; Performance, Accessibility, Privacy and Reliability were not measurable on this service and are recorded as null — not as zero. Maintenance is an additional frame from the open-source teardown, scored separately from the seven. Every frame it averages is published with its evidence on the Legit.Show listing.
The 7 Frames
- Performance — not measurable on this service (null — not scored as 0)
- Accessibility — not measurable on this service (null — not scored as 0)
- Security — 90/100How this compares across the catalogue: The Web Security Baseline
