Admin-AI Model Pricing & Selection Guide (Jul 10, 2026)
Available Non-OpenRouter Models (direct through admin-ai LiteLLM)
These models are accessible via https://admin-ai.itpropartner.com/v1 with the admin-ai virtual key. All 37 models in Postgres route through individual provider API keys (Anthropic, DeepSeek, Google, OpenAI, xAI, Groq) — only the single openrouter/* entry routes through OpenRouter.

Virtual Key Config (current as of Jul 10)
The entire model chain now uses a virtual key (sk-mTvC...) with $50/mo budget and model restrictions, not the master key. Key management via https://admin-ai.itpropartner.com/ui.
Model Name Format (CRITICAL)
Use the EXACT name admin-ai exposes — hyphens, no OpenRouter prefix:
claude-opus-4-8— direct through admin-aiopenrouter/anthropic/claude-opus-4.8— routes through OpenRouter, hits credit wall
Gateway Restart Required
After changing model config, gateway must restart. No hot-reload for delegation model config.
