OpenRouter Ori Brings Grok Build Anywhere

Ori turns Grok Build from an xAI-specific CLI into a provider-agnostic coding surface, making it easier to compare harnesses without reconfiguring authentication.

• –Custom-endpoint mode passes an OpenRouter key only for the active run, leaving Grok configuration untouched
• –OpenRouter’s model catalog and private endpoints become available directly inside Grok Build
• –Existing Grok flags, including model selection and reasoning effort, continue to work unchanged
• –Disabling xAI telemetry, error reporting, and trace uploads improves privacy for OpenRouter-based workflows
• –The install-and-pipe shell flow is convenient, but developers should review the installer and consider the security implications of handing a third-party harness repository access
