Use TeamoRouter with elizaOS

elizaOS picks its model provider through plugins. To run an agent on TeamoRouter, point the OpenAI plugin (for GPT models) or the Anthropic plugin (for Claude) at TeamoRouter and use your TeamoRouter API key. One key and one balance cover both.

Checked on 2026-11-06 against the current npm releases: @elizaos/cli 1.7.2, @elizaos/plugin-openai 1.6.0 and @elizaos/plugin-anthropic 1.5.12.

1. Before you start

1. Create an API key in the TeamoRouter console.
2. Have an elizaOS project. If you don't have one yet:

bun i -g @elizaos/cli
elizaos create my-agent
cd my-agent

Environment variables go in the project's .env file (or elizaos env edit-local).

2. GPT models: @elizaos/plugin-openai

elizaos plugins add @elizaos/plugin-openai

.env:

OPENAI_API_KEY=sk-teamo-xxxxxx
OPENAI_BASE_URL=https://api.teamorouter.com/v1
OPENAI_SMALL_MODEL=gpt-6-luna
OPENAI_LARGE_MODEL=gpt-6.1-sol

• Keep /v1 at the end of OPENAI_BASE_URL.
• Use GPT model IDs here. plugin-openai 1.6.0 sends text requests to the OpenAI Responses API (/v1/responses), and on TeamoRouter that endpoint serves GPT models only. For Claude, use the Anthropic plugin in section 3.

3. Claude models: @elizaos/plugin-anthropic

elizaos plugins add @elizaos/plugin-anthropic

.env:

ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=sk-teamo-xxxxxx
ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL=https://api.teamorouter.com/v1
ANTHROPIC_SMALL_MODEL=claude-haiku-5-5
ANTHROPIC_LARGE_MODEL=claude-sonnet-5-5

• ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL isn't listed in the plugin's README, but the plugin reads it (default https://api.anthropic.com/v1). Keep /v1 at the end; requests go to TeamoRouter's /v1/messages.
• List the Anthropic plugin first in your character's plugins, so text generation goes to Claude:

{
  "plugins": ["@elizaos/plugin-anthropic", "@elizaos/plugin-openai"]
}

4. Embeddings

elizaOS needs an embedding model for its memory. TeamoRouter doesn't offer embedding models, so send embeddings somewhere else. The simplest option is a local Ollama model through plugin-openai's separate embedding settings:

ollama pull nomic-embed-text

.env:

OPENAI_EMBEDDING_URL=http://localhost:11434/v1
OPENAI_EMBEDDING_API_KEY=ollama
OPENAI_EMBEDDING_MODEL=nomic-embed-text
OPENAI_EMBEDDING_DIMENSIONS=768

Text still goes to TeamoRouter. Start the agent with elizaos start and open http://localhost:3000. If you skip this step, elizaOS fails with "No model found for type EMBEDDING", or the embedding requests sent to TeamoRouter fail.

5. Which model for which job

These are the vendors' official list prices. TeamoRouter's current prices are on the pricing page and the model list.

6. Common errors

Pay with USDT or USDC

No credit card needed. In the top-up dialog, click Pay with crypto, pick USDT, USDC or ETH and a network, and send from an exchange app (Binance, OKX and others) or any wallet. The minimum is $5 (USDT on BEP20). Steps and networks: Pay with crypto.
