Freeride

Manages free AI models from OpenRouter for OpenClaw. Automatically ranks models by quality, configures fallbacks for rate-limit handling, and updates openclaw.json. Optional Groq, Gemini and Cerebras free tiers are opt-in. Use when the user mentions free AI, OpenRouter, model switching, rate limits, or wants to reduce AI costs.

# FreeRide - Free AI for OpenClaw

## What This Skill Does

Configures OpenClaw to use **free** AI models from OpenRouter. Sets the best free model as primary, adds ranked fallbacks so rate limits don't interrupt the user, and preserves existing config.

## Rules for the agent

- **Never print, echo, log, or ask the user to paste an API key into chat.** Don't echo key variables, run `env` or `printenv`, or `cat ~/.openclaw/.env`. The user sets keys themselves.
- To check whether a key is set, run `freeride status`. It shows keys masked (for example `sk-or-v1-...abcd`) or `NOT SET`.
- Before running a command with `--setup-auth`, tell the user what it adds (see below) and only pass `--yes` once they agree.
- Don't pass `--providers` or `--allow-training-providers` unless the user asked for those providers. For Gemini, tell the user Google may use free-tier prompts for training before passing `--allow-training-providers`.

## Prerequisites

Before running any FreeRide command, ensure:

1. **OPENROUTER_API_KEY is set.** Check with `freeride status`. If it says `NOT SET`, the user gets a free key at https://openrouter.ai/keys and adds it themselves, in their editor, as a line in `~/.openclaw/.env`:
   ```
   OPENROUTER_API_KEY=<their key>
   ```
   (or exports it in their own shell). Do not type the key on a command line for them.

2. **The `freeride` CLI is installed.** Check with `which freeride`. If not found:
