How a new model joins the CompareLLM catalog
OpenRouter discovery, preview hold, second-source promote, then the compare matrix grows automatically.
Discovery is automatic. Indexing is not
Daily ingest reads the OpenRouter models API. A brand-new id becomes a preview row: not in the sitemap, not in C(n,2) compare pages. That stops one marketplace listing from creating dozens of thin URLs overnight.
The row becomes indexable when a second public source (Arena, LiveBench, or official SWE-bench JSON) matches an alias — or when an admin promotes it and attaches the missing names.
What you do in /admin
Run ingest now if you do not want to wait for 06:00 UTC. Attach unmatched names as aliases. Promote a preview once you have enough dated cells. Draft /news with Grok, edit the draft, then publish. Public login still cannot do any of this.
