Some housekeeping you gotta do to protect yourselves today:
1. Update Node version to v22.23.4, v24.2.1 or v26.12.1
https://nodejs.org/en/blog/vulnerability/october-2026-security-releases
2. Update Bun to v1.4.4
https://bun.com/blog/bun-v1.4.4
3. Update ca-certificates in your host machine

We use Bun for routstrd, it's important to update it to protect yourselves from man in the middle attacks.

Even if you are building with Routstr Core, since we cap it to always use <1.102, you should be fine.

Wild times right now. We should all be using sandboxes to at least be more secure. (CVEs in sandboxes were found recently as well)

LiteLLM was compromised again, your Routstr node is not affected.

A malicious build of litellm 1.107.0 shipped last week with a credential stealer and remote-code loader in all seven wheels. It's the second litellm hijack this year.

Routstr is unaffected. We pin litellm >=1.101.2,<1.102 with an exact lockfile, so 1.107.0 can't resolve in a Routstr deployment, and we found none of the published indicators in our environments.

If you are running your own venv as a developer, check "pip show litellm". If it says 1.107.0, remove cook.pth, cook.py, and sitecustomize.py from site-packages before running pip again, startup re-triggers the payload, then treat every secret on that host as compromised and rebuild.

We're removing litellm. We only use it as a translation layer, and two hijacks in one year is not a good sign.

quoting
nevent1q…9m70
routstrd writes every request and every failure to its own log file (~/.routstrd/logs/YYYY-MM-DD.log). That file is the only record a failed request leaves: the daemon stdout carries nothing but [routstrd:start] startup progress, and the usage database is appended only after a completed response, so "why did that fail?" had no answer anywhere the app could show.

DaemonLogTail reads a bounded tail of that directory (newest file last, each file named, the partial first line dropped, an explicit omission marker) and showLogDialog renders it under its own DAEMON LOG header. The directory is inside the app sandbox: the runtime binding maps /root/.routstrd to files/routstr-home, and AttestationWatcher already tails the same file. coco-logs (the far more verbose wallet-engine diagnostics) is deliberately not rendered. The dialog Clear button still only clears the activity log and the saved crash reports; the header says where the daemon logs are cleared instead.

Note for review: the copied log can now include wallet amounts, mint URLs and Lightning invoices that the daemon records at info level. The seed is not among them (routstrd logs a mnemonic fingerprint, never the mnemonic), but if Copy should stay wallet-free this section needs the same redaction the daemon stdout gets.

Verification:
- 25 new assertions in android/tests; the currency marker moves 1191 -> 1218 and android/check-currency.sh passes
- android/run-tests.sh: 1246 passed, 1 failed (the pre-existing JDK-17-only BlossomServersTest URL-host case: JDK 20+ rejects a space in a URL host, JDK 17 parses it leniently; CI pins JDK 21, and main shows the same single failure on this JDK)
- the whole app source compiles clean against android.jar (API 36) with JDK 17
- scripts/guard.sh --tree passes

New routstrd release!

Update with 'routstrd update'. Latest version: 0.4.17

With this version, you can use both "rout" or "routstrd" as your cli command. We agree, routstrd is hard to type 🥲

The AI space moves at lightning ⚡️ speed. Harnesses change how they work, and inference providers keep changing their caching behaviour and API formats. So stay current with the latest releases :).

What's new:
1. Mismatched model IDs are handled for you. If a node misconfigures one, the client handles it transparently via Nostr events (38426).

Nodes will inevitably advertise models under IDs nobody agreed on. Instead of those models missing your ranking algorithm, the client fetches mapping events from Nostr and takes care of it. So you get more upstreams and better prices.

2. TUI time filters and charts. The TUI now shows data filtered by time period, with charts.
3. Sandbox label for unverified nodes. Try nodes we haven't verified with 'routstrd providers enable sandbox'. Be careful though.
4. Vendor-specific APIs for Pi and OpenCode. Far better cache hit rates and more upstream coverage.
5. Better Lightning mint/melt recovery, with more wallet cleanup and recovery buttons and commands. Ask your agent to explore the wallet commands if you hit issues.
6. NWC refills are rock solid now. We lean on them more and more internally.
7. Reminder: cache hits are shown in the Recent tab. Found a bad upstream? Tag us and let us know :).
8. Per-model cooldowns. 'routstrd cooldowns' lists what's cooling down; 'routstrd cooldowns --reset' clears it.
9. Model bootstrap is 10x faster now, 150s (in some cases) to 10-15s.
10. Update notifications. While you're doing routine things — receive, balance, and friends routstrd will now tell you, for example:
`A new routstrd version is available (v0.4.16 → v0.4.17). Run 'routstrd update' to update.`

Release: https://github.com/Routstr/routstrd/releases/tag/v0.4.17

We don't route anyone through questionable providers. The code that routes user request is public, everything is on Nostr. I'm just one of the reviewers of Routstr nodes, you can review them yourself. Users fetch these reviews from Nostr and only route through those nodes. :)

I don't see us as competitors. PPQ should be a Routstr node as well. I just created a dummy event to give you an idea, I'd be great if you create an event like this and sign it from your npub:

quoting nevent1q…8rx2

{"name":"PPQ","about":"Community signed event for PPQ"}

Routstr node runners in our web of trust are not malicious. I hope you don't burn bridges with the node runners, Matt. They're people in our web of trust who want to offer cheap and easy access to cypherpunks building on Nostr and Bitcoin.

I don't think its any different from someone donating to HRF or OpenSats. Here, they're simply giving discounts to builders on Nostr. Its a form of donation.

Lastly, Routstr nodes are high quality nodes, Venice is a reputable provider like PPQ. And Juraj is routing to them.

As a community we should appreciate that PPQ sells inference for sats.

I run a PPQ mirror to ensure we have enough supply in the permissionless marketplace.

Yes, the prices are higher now, in the last week or so. That's because the demand is higher than supply. And Juraj (nprofile…4dda) 's node wasn't reachable by older routstrd clients due to model ID mismatch.

Prices are usually much lower than that. Hopefully soon people notice the demand here and spin up new nodes to fill that demand. That's just how markets work :)

"Avoid" on thefux is purely because Nostr relays deleted newer replaceable events. Its the most used node. It was updated day before yesterday.

Pi Agent is restrcted from the ngit key which is Amber signing only. Sll ngit actions taken in the project page are requests sent to Amber. This means Pi agent has local git but not ngit actions in the app. That keeps you in the loop and manually approving. On the project page there is: ngit command run which allows you to run any ngit command there as well.

For now, Web of Trust.

Your routstrd (client) doesn't automatically pick up any Routstr node from Nostr. They are essentially "enabled" by me right now. You are trusting that a node isn't lying to you, you are trusting that they aren't logging your requests and that they are not doing prompt injection.

You can choose to enable or disable nodes.

But the thing is, even on OpenRouter, there is no guarantee that Kimi K3 is actually Kimi K3 and not Deepseek v4.1.

Hell, even on Anthropic, there is no guarantee that it's actually Fable and not Opus or Sonnet. You can only tell based on people complaining on social media! Like Nostr!

So, what if your client could automatically read from Nostr and choose the providers for you? That's the end goal. That's the only way. Verifying which models are being run inside a GPU is not solved right now (idk if it'll ever be solved). It's all based on trust.

Jev jev jev jev jev, I'm sure you've heard of this by now, it's a new model architecture that is super fast and super cheap and works as classifier for anything you need.
Look here for more inspiration: https://github.com/cobanov/awesome-jev

You can finally jevelop (sorry 😂) using jev using nothing but a couple of sats!

Update your routstrd if you want to use it through it. Or you can use it through our sdk as well. (pnpm install @routstr/sdk)

I understand your concern. I'm also learning this as we go.

Just to note:
routstrd: routstr daemon that you run locally. it's a client that communicates with Routstr nodes
Routstr nodes (they run routstr-core): providers who offer AI models for sats.

routstrd uses our sdk which in turn uses tinfoil's SDK (https://github.com/Routstr/routstr-sdk/blob/main/client/TinfoilSecure.ts) to encrypt the message body on the client side to Tinfoil's servers where decryption happens. They have TEE-terminated TLS so you can be sure that the decryption happens inside their TEE. (source: https://confidentialinference.net/providers/tinfoil).

So Routstr nodes, Private Provider (npub1fet…jzfa) in this case, cannot read any of your messages, you can verify this by running a node yourself. If there is a way to read your messages it has to be on the Tinfoil side, that is if their system is not well set up. Let's look at Tinfoil:

Here we are attesting that their TEEs run their released binary on Github. Yes, we are essentially trusting that new Github binaries don't contain any backdoors. These are the guarantees we have:
1. The enclave is real AMD SEV-SNP hardware. SEV-SNP report verified against AMD VCEK.
2. The code inside is the auditable open-source release. Sigstore bundle for tinfoilsh/confidential-model-router.
3. The measured code is what's actually running. Enclave measurement == signed release measurement
4. The request body can only be read by that enclave. EHBP encrypts to attested HPKE public key
5. A third party can't pretend to be Tinfoil. Certificate SANs bind HPKE key + attestation hash to *.tinfoil.sh

Auditing everything is very hard for us. Happy to hear any feedback here and improve our setup and/or support better TEE inference providers if any.

To all routstrd users, I’m really sorry about the infrastructure has been sub par this last week or two. We are not actively being attacked by anyone.

It is simply because this stuff is hard (combining Nostr, Bitcoin+Lightning+Cashu and LLMs) and we made a mistake of pushing a change to Routstr Core that should’ve been in the next release.

We are responsible for the disruptions in your workflow. I’m really sorry about it. We’re working on making it a lot more stable with the upcoming release of routstrd.

_________________________

Once you topup to PPQ you cannot switch identities without losing all the funds. Whereas Routstr nodes allow refunding your balance with them. So easier to switch identities.

On the other hand, if you’re using TEE models there are no downsides only upsides. But if you’re using normal models, the Routstr node COULD also be logging your requests (along with potentially PPQ and OpenRouter). But I trust that the big Routstr nodes (in my WoT) are not logging.

New Release! Routstr Core v0.4.4: Reliable Billing & Robust Streaming

Major Changes:

- **More Accurate Cache Pricing:** Cached input tokens are now billed at their real, per-vendor rates across direct upstreams (OpenAI, Anthropic, DeepSeek, and more) instead of a flat guess. Cache prices are configurable, so operators can tune them per model.

- **Reliable Mint Swaps:** Foreign-mint swaps now retry using the fees the mint actually charges instead of trusting a stale `fee_reserve`, and the NUT-02 input fee is deducted when crediting trusted-mint top-ups.

- **Robust Streaming for All Providers:** A new buffer-based SSE parser handles streamed responses for every supported provider

- **Lightning Invoice Top-ups (RIP-08):** You can now create and top up API keys directly with a Lightning invoice.

- **Hardened Child Keys:** Child key balance deduction.

Plus better rate-limit forwarding, smarter OpenRouter defaults (routes to a tool-use-capable provider), harder-to-abuse admin endpoints, and many smaller fixes.

Huge thanks to everyone who shipped this release - with a special welcome to our first-time contributors.

Please upgrade your nodes by pulling from the release tag here: https://github.com/Routstr/routstr-core/releases/tag/0.4.4

and run docker compose up --build -d.
