Which models can I use?

Whatever your model provider resolves. A model provider is any OpenAI-compatible endpoint. The container running your agent sends every model call to it, and the default is OpenRouter.

Your code names a model as a bare id in the creator/model-name form, such as openai/gpt-4o-mini or anthropic/claude-haiku-4.5. The container resolves that id through its provider, so swapping providers changes nothing in your project.

The provider is operator configuration. You set it on the Model provider screen, or with MODEL_PROVIDER_BASE_URL and MODEL_PROVIDER_API_KEY on the container. Point the base URL at a local gateway (Ollama, LM Studio, LiteLLM, vLLM) and the key becomes optional.

To read the live catalogue, call stackbone.ai.models.list(). Every entry carries the model id. Whether it also carries context_length and pricing is up to the provider: OpenRouter reports both, a local gateway usually reports neither.
