Openrouter Trending Models

This fetches the current top 9 trending programming models from OpenRouter's weekly rankings and gives you structured JSON with model IDs, context windows, pricing, and token usage stats. Use it when you need to dynamically select models for multi-model reviews instead of hardcoding them, or when you want data-driven recommendations based on what's actually popular. The output is clean and parseable, so you can pipe it through jq to filter by price or context size. Runs in 2-5 seconds via a Bun script. Honestly most useful if you're building agents or workflows that need to stay current with the AI model landscape without manual updates every time the rankings shift.
