Overview

AISummary of 1 article

OpenRouter says it reduced the output of its model lookup for agents from about 1 MB, roughly 250k tokens, to 38 KB, a 96% reduction, and that the results are now paginated.

The change targets the amount of text a lookup places into an agent's context window.

OpenRouter also says transcripts now include timestamps and speaker labels in plain text, so any client can read them. The source is a single post from OpenRouter's X account, and no independent measurement of the change is reported.
