Why Yielding Bear

One key	Drop-in OpenAI-compatible base URL — GPT, Claude, Gemini, Llama, and more
Smart routing	yieldingbear/grizzly-1.0g picks cost vs capability per request
Real savings	Up to ~60–80% vs retail (illustrative) — right model every call
Honest free	True $0 upstream free models only — no fake “free” paid rows
Agents-first	Free key → usage; Grizzly Pro $99 when you scale (25M tokens)
Dashboard	Keys, spend, models — developers

Why this skill

1-command install	Hermes, OpenClaw, or shell — keys mode 600, never in git
Doctor CLI	yb.sh doctor / models / smoke — prove the wire before you ship
Live catalog	Free tags from live API — not a stale hardcoded list
Updatable	clawhub update yieldingbear — no fork rot

Security (hard rules)

• Never commit real yb_live_sk_*, OpenRouter, Supabase service role, LiteLLM, or ClawHub tokens.
• Customer keys live only in ~/.hermes|openclaw|config/yieldingbear/secrets/ (mode 600).
• Free path = true free upstream only. Paid models require balance.
