Routewise
ishan_1811 · App
Routewise is a terminal client for a cost-aware LLM request router. Every query is scored for difficulty and sent to a model tier that fits the score, with web search, semantic caching and cross-provider failover handled automatically. You can ask one-off questions, stream replies or chat, and see per-call routing details, usage, cost and recent request logs. It uses the hosted RouteWise API or your own backend, with an API key saved by its login step.

Why it's useful
It scores each question and picks the model tier for you, and shows the routing decision alongside every answer.
What you could do with it
- Pipe a model answer into another command while the routing details print separately on the error stream.
- Choose a support routing policy so customer-support questions go to a cheap, mid or frontier tier.
- Override a tier with your own provider key so tricky queries go to the model you choose.
Written from its documentation: what it says it can do, not what our checks found.
Maintenance
Not measuredNo release date is on record for this package yet. The nightly publisher check records one as it reaches each npm package, about once every ten nights.
Release activity only: it says nothing about quality or safety, and a finished small package can be fine without releases. How it is measured
- Licence and provenance
- finding
- no LICENCE file at the root (.)
Published because it was found. A finding is information about where the limits are, not a verdict that the software is unsafe.
What this does not cover
- Everything. Treat it as you would software from anywhere else.
Receipt history: every signed receipt for every version of this listing, and what changed between them.
In its maker's words
The cost-aware LLM request router, from your terminal. Auto-routes every query to the cheapest model tier that can handle it.

Static scanned
- What it establishes
- Its published package, or for a hosted server its source repository at a recorded commit, was read file by file, without running it, by every check in our current scan.
- What it does not
- How it behaves when it runs, or anything the scan does not read yet: several rubric checks, the repository's history, and compiled code in folders named dist or build. For a hosted server, that the endpoint runs the code that was read. The ooruby Index sets out exactly what was read.
- Exactly what was read
- Version 0.2.0, the file with digest sha512-YVG8AjP2e2nu3MM6ZXLrIKql51YPRsa56zLUM+E8I6Y6T/VDJlfoAI2JT9p7oIGwhCU6SCKQvWi4USqvFjHcOg==, as the registry publishes it. A published version cannot be replaced, so this names the same bytes for anyone who checks.
- Authentication
- Runs locally. No hosted endpoint is listed for this package. You run it on your own machine, so there is no endpoint of ours to authenticate against.
Adding it
Run it with:
npx -y routewise@0.2.0Pinned to 0.2.0, which is the version the findings above were found in. Drop the version to take whatever is newest, and the report on this page stops describing what you installed.

No build provenance published. The repository above is the one the publisher declared, and nothing links it to the package you would install. That is not a mark against this listing, since most packages are published this way, but it is a check nobody can run.
The badge, if this is your listing
It renders the current rung (static scanned) and links back here, where what that does and does not establish is one click away. It updates itself as the evidence deepens.
