   Hey, thanks for suggesting this! What are your thoughts on using OpenRouter as a means to integrate with a user's model of choosing? I understand that this approach requires a completely separate api key (OPENROUTER_API_KEY) compared to a user's existing ANTHROPIC_API_KEY or similar...

   I suppose the question is do we want to prioritise minimal maintenance overhead over optimal user convenience?

   @aplikethewatch I think adding direct Claude implementation will be the easiest way using anthropics/anthropic-sdk-go.

   However, for open-webui, which I am using, I had to use the pipeline functionality with a sidecar container and Python code to use the Claude API key. This whole pipeline/Python part simulated the OpenAI API. This could be a second option, but it would be more complex.

   I think I'll leave the answer on you 🙏🏻
