Pareto Code Router

openrouter/pareto-code

Released Apr 21, 2026200,000 contextPricing varied

The Pareto Router maintains a tiered shortlist of strong coding models, ranked by Artificial Analysis(opens in new tab) coding percentiles. Set min_coding_score between 0 and 1 on the pareto-router plugin(opens in new tab) to control how strong a coder you need; higher scores select stronger (and typically more expensive) models. If you omit min_coding_score, the router defaults to the High tier.

Today scores map into three bands — Low, Medium, and High. More granular bands will be added over time, so the precise score you pick now lets you opt into finer control as the shortlist grows.

Selecting Nitro from the variant dropdown ranks the models in your tier by measured throughput and routes each request to the fastest one, so you trade some model variety for lower latency.

Read the Pareto Router docs(opens in new tab) for the full selection logic, fallback behavior, and how to customize routing.
