Problem
The getting started guide in
README.mdshowed:OPENROUTER_API_KEY=your_key_hereBut Bub resolves API keys with this priority:
BUB_API_KEY>LLM_API_KEY>OPENROUTER_API_KEYThe current
env.examplealready includesLLM_API_KEYas a placeholder by default. As a result, the default quick start flow (cp env.example .env+ filling onlyOPENROUTER_API_KEY) can fail, because Bub can pick that value instead ofOPENROUTER_API_KEY, causing authentication failures and a confusing first-run experience.Fix
Updated the minimal
.envexample inREADME.mdto use:LLM_API_KEY=your_key_hereinstead of
OPENROUTER_API_KEY=your_key_here.This aligns the quick-start example with Bub’s actual key resolution order and avoids accidental key shadowing during onboarding.
