-  model: 'gpt-4o-mini',
-  messages: [{ role: 'user', content: 'Hello!' }],
-  // Add optional metadata for better analytics
-  usageMetadata: {
-    subscriber: { id: 'user-123' },
-    organizationId: 'my-company',
-    taskType: 'chat',
-  },
-});
-```
-
-**✅ That's it!** Your existing OpenAI code now automatically tracks usage to Revenium.
-
-## 📊 What Gets Tracked
-
-The middleware automatically captures comprehensive usage data:
-
-### **🔢 Usage Metrics**
-
-- **Token Counts** - Input tokens, output tokens, total tokens
-- **Model Information** - Model name, provider (OpenAI/Azure), API version
-- **Request Timing** - Request duration, response time
-- **Cost Calculation** - Estimated costs based on current pricing
-
-### **🏷️ Business Context (Optional)**
-
-- **User Tracking** - Subscriber ID, email, credentials
-- **Organization Data** - Organization ID, subscription ID, product ID
-- **Task Classification** - Task type, agent identifier, trace ID
-- **Quality Metrics** - Response quality scores, custom metadata
-
-### **🔧 Technical Details**
-
-- **API Endpoints** - Chat completions, embeddings, responses API
-- **Request Types** - Streaming vs non-streaming
-- **Error Tracking** - Failed requests, error types, retry attempts
-- **Environment Info** - Development vs production usage
-
-## OpenAI Responses API Support
-
-This middleware includes **full support** for OpenAI's new Responses API, which is designed to replace the traditional Chat Completions API with enhanced capabilities for agent-like applications.
-
-### What is the Responses API?
-
-The Responses API is OpenAI's new stateful API that:
-
-- Uses `input` instead of `messages` parameter for simplified interaction
-- Provides unified experience combining chat completions and assistants capabilities
-- Supports advanced features like background tasks, function calling, and code interpreter
-- Offers better streaming and real-time response generation
-- Works with GPT-5 and other advanced models
-
-### API Comparison
-
-**Traditional Chat Completions:**
-
-```javascript
-const response = await openai.chat.completions.create({
-  model: 'gpt-4o',
-  messages: [{ role: 'user', content: 'Hello' }],
-});
-```
-
-**New Responses API:**
-
-```javascript
-const response = await openai.responses.create({
-  model: 'gpt-5',
-  input: 'Hello', // Simplified input parameter
-});
-```
-
-### Key Differences
-

-### Responses API Examples
-
-The middleware includes comprehensive examples for the new Responses API:
-
-**Basic Usage:**
-
-```typescript
-import { initializeReveniumFromEnv, patchOpenAIInstance } from '@revenium/openai';
-import OpenAI from 'openai';
-
-// Initialize and patch OpenAI instance
-initializeReveniumFromEnv();
-const openai = patchOpenAIInstance(new OpenAI());
-
-// Simple string input
-const response = await openai.responses.create({
-  model: 'gpt-5',
-  input: 'What is the capital of France?',
-  max_output_tokens: 150,
-  usageMetadata: {
-    subscriber: { id: 'user-123', email: 'user@example.com' },
-    organizationId: 'org-456',
-    productId: 'quantum-explainer',
-    taskType: 'educational-content',
-  },
-});
-
-console.log(response.output_text); // "Paris."
-```
-
-**Streaming Example:**
-
-```typescript
-const stream = await openai.responses.create({
-  model: 'gpt-5',
-  input: 'Write a short story about AI',
-  stream: true,
-  max_output_tokens: 500,
-  usageMetadata: {
-    subscriber: { id: 'user-123', email: 'user@example.com' },
-    organizationId: 'org-456',
-  },
-});
-
-for await (const chunk of stream) {
-  process.stdout.write(chunk.delta?.content || '');
-}
-```
-
-### Adding Custom Metadata
-
-Track users, organizations, and custom data with seamless TypeScript integration:
-
-```typescript
-import { initializeReveniumFromEnv, patchOpenAIInstance } from '@revenium/openai';
-import OpenAI from 'openai';
-
-// Initialize and patch OpenAI instance
-initializeReveniumFromEnv();
-const openai = patchOpenAIInstance(new OpenAI());
-
-const response = await openai.chat.completions.create({
-  model: 'gpt-4',
-  messages: [{ role: 'user', content: 'Summarize this document' }],
-  // Add custom tracking metadata - all fields optional, no type casting needed!
-  usageMetadata: {
-    subscriber: {
-      id: 'user-12345',
-      email: 'john@acme-corp.com',
-    },
-    organizationId: 'acme-corp',
-    productId: 'document-ai',
-    taskType: 'document-summary',
-    agent: 'doc-summarizer-v2',
-    traceId: 'session-abc123',
-  },
-});
-
-// Same metadata works with Responses API
-const responsesResult = await openai.responses.create({
-  model: 'gpt-5',
-  input: 'Summarize this document',
-  // Same metadata structure - seamless compatibility!
-  usageMetadata: {
-    subscriber: {
-      id: 'user-12345',
-      email: 'john@acme-corp.com',
-    },
-    organizationId: 'acme-corp',
-    productId: 'document-ai',
-    taskType: 'document-summary',
-    agent: 'doc-summarizer-v2',
-    traceId: 'session-abc123',
-  },
-});
-```
-
-### Streaming Support
-
-The middleware automatically handles streaming requests with seamless metadata:
-
-```typescript
-import { initializeReveniumFromEnv, patchOpenAIInstance } from 'revenium-middleware-openai-node';
-import OpenAI from 'openai';
-
-// Initialize and patch OpenAI instance
-initializeReveniumFromEnv();
-const openai = patchOpenAIInstance(new OpenAI());
-
-const stream = await openai.chat.completions.create({
-  model: 'gpt-4',
-  messages: [{ role: 'user', content: 'Tell me a story' }],
-  stream: true,
-  // Metadata works seamlessly with streaming - all fields optional!
-  usageMetadata: {
-    organizationId: 'story-app',
-    taskType: 'creative-writing',
-  },
-});
-
-for await (const chunk of stream) {
-  process.stdout.write(chunk.choices[0]?.delta?.content || '');
-}
-// Usage tracking happens automatically when stream completes
-```
-
-### Temporarily Disabling Tracking
-
-If you need to disable Revenium tracking temporarily, you can unpatch the OpenAI client:
-
-```javascript
-import { unpatchOpenAI, patchOpenAI } from '@revenium/openai-middleware';
-
-// Disable tracking
-unpatchOpenAI();
-
-// Your OpenAI calls now bypass Revenium tracking
-await openai.chat.completions.create({...});
-
-// Re-enable tracking
-patchOpenAI();
-```
-
-**Common use cases:**
-
-- **Debugging**: Isolate whether issues are caused by the middleware
-- **Testing**: Compare behavior with/without tracking
-- **Conditional tracking**: Enable/disable based on environment
-- **Troubleshooting**: Temporary bypass during incident response
-
-**Note**: This affects all OpenAI instances globally since we patch the prototype methods.
-
-## Azure OpenAI Integration

-
-### Azure Model Name Resolution
-
-The middleware automatically maps Azure deployment names to standard model names for accurate pricing:
-
-```typescript
-// Azure deployment names → Standard model names for pricing
-"gpt-4o-2024-11-20"     → "gpt-4o"
-"gpt4o-prod"            → "gpt-4o"
-"o4-mini"               → "gpt-4o-mini"
-"gpt-35-turbo-dev"      → "gpt-3.5-turbo"
-"text-embedding-3-large" → "text-embedding-3-large"  // Direct match
-"embedding-3-large"     → "text-embedding-3-large"
-```
-
-## 🔧 Advanced Usage
-
-### Streaming with Metadata
-
-The middleware seamlessly handles streaming requests with full metadata support:
-
-```typescript
-import { initializeReveniumFromEnv, patchOpenAIInstance } from '@revenium/openai';
-import OpenAI from 'openai';
-
-initializeReveniumFromEnv();
-const openai = patchOpenAIInstance(new OpenAI());
-
-// Chat Completions API streaming
-const stream = await openai.chat.completions.create({
-  model: 'gpt-4o-mini',
-  messages: [{ role: 'user', content: 'Tell me a story' }],
-  stream: true,
-  usageMetadata: {
-    subscriber: { id: 'user-123', email: 'user@example.com' },
-    organizationId: 'story-app',
-    taskType: 'creative-writing',
-    traceId: 'session-' + Date.now(),
-  },
-});
-
-for await (const chunk of stream) {
-  process.stdout.write(chunk.choices[0]?.delta?.content || '');
-}
-// Usage tracking happens automatically when stream completes
-```
-
-### Responses API with Metadata
-
-Full support for OpenAI's new Responses API:
-
-```typescript
-// Simple string input with metadata
-const response = await openai.responses.create({
-  model: 'gpt-5',
-  input: 'What is the capital of France?',
-  max_output_tokens: 150,
-  usageMetadata: {
-    subscriber: { id: 'user-123', email: 'user@example.com' },
-    organizationId: 'org-456',
-    productId: 'geography-tutor',
-    taskType: 'educational-query',
-  },
-});
-
-console.log(response.output_text); // "Paris."
-```
-
-### Azure OpenAI Integration
-
-Automatic Azure OpenAI detection with seamless metadata:
-
-```typescript
-import { AzureOpenAI } from 'openai';
-
-// Create and patch Azure OpenAI client
-const azure = patchOpenAIInstance(
-  new AzureOpenAI({
-    endpoint: process.env.AZURE_OPENAI_ENDPOINT,
-    apiKey: process.env.AZURE_OPENAI_API_KEY,
-    apiVersion: process.env.AZURE_OPENAI_API_VERSION,
-  })
-);
-
-// Your existing Azure OpenAI code works with seamless metadata
-const response = await azure.chat.completions.create({
-  model: 'gpt-4o', // Uses your deployment name
-  messages: [{ role: 'user', content: 'Hello from Azure!' }],
-  usageMetadata: {
-    organizationId: 'my-company',
-    taskType: 'azure-chat',
-    agent: 'azure-assistant',
-  },
-});
-```
-
-### Embeddings with Metadata

-  reveniumBaseUrl: 'https://api.revenium.io/meter',
-  apiTimeout: 5000,
-  failSilent: true,
-  maxRetries: 3,
-});
-```
-
-## 🛠️ Configuration Options
-
-### Environment Variables
-
-| Variable                       | Required | Default                         | Description                                    |
-| ------------------------------ | -------- | ------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------- |
-| `REVENIUM_METERING_API_KEY`    | ✅       | -                               | Your Revenium API key (starts with `hak_`)     |
-| `OPENAI_API_KEY`               | ✅       | -                               | Your OpenAI API key (starts with `sk-`)        |
-| `REVENIUM_METERING_BASE_URL`   | ❌       | `https://api.revenium.io/meter` | Revenium metering API base URL                 |
-| `REVENIUM_DEBUG`               | ❌       | `false`                         | Enable debug logging (`true`/`false`)          |
-| `AZURE_OPENAI_ENDPOINT`        | ❌       | -                               | Azure OpenAI endpoint URL (for Azure testing)  |
-| `AZURE_OPENAI_API_KEY`         | ❌       | -                               | Azure OpenAI API key (for Azure testing)       |
-| `AZURE_OPENAI_DEPLOYMENT`      | ❌       | -                               | Azure OpenAI deployment name (for Azure)       |
-| `AZURE_OPENAI_API_VERSION`     | ❌       | `2024-12-01-preview`            | Azure OpenAI API version (for Azure)           |
-
-**⚠️ Important Note about `REVENIUM_METERING_BASE_URL`:**
-
-- This variable is **optional** and defaults to the production URL (`https://api.revenium.io/meter`)
-- If you don't set it explicitly, the middleware will use the default production endpoint
-- However, you may see console warnings or errors if the middleware cannot determine the correct environment
-- **Best practice:** Always set this variable explicitly to match your environment:
-
-  ```bash
-  # For Production
-  REVENIUM_METERING_BASE_URL=https://api.revenium.io/meter
-
-  # For QA/Testing
-  REVENIUM_METERING_BASE_URL=https://api.qa.hcapp.io/meter
-  ```
-
-- **Remember:** Your `REVENIUM_METERING_API_KEY` must match the environment of your base URL
-
-### Usage Metadata Options
-
-All metadata fields are optional and help provide better analytics:
-
-```typescript
-interface UsageMetadata {
-  traceId?: string; // Session or conversation ID
-  taskType?: string; // Type of AI task (e.g., "chat", "summary")
-  subscriber?: {
-    // User information (nested structure)
-    id?: string; // User ID from your system
-    email?: string; // User's email address
-    credential?: {
-      // User credentials
-      name?: string; // Credential name
-      value?: string; // Credential value
-    };
-  };
-  organizationId?: string; // Organization/company ID
-  subscriptionId?: string; // Billing plan ID
-  productId?: string; // Your product/feature ID
-  agent?: string; // AI agent identifier
-  responseQualityScore?: number; // Quality score (0-1)
-}
-```
-
-## How It Works
-
-1. **Automatic Patching**: When imported, the middleware patches OpenAI's methods:
-   - `chat.completions.create` (Chat Completions API)
-   - `responses.create` (Responses API - when available)
-   - `embeddings.create` (Embeddings API)
-2. **Request Interception**: All OpenAI requests are intercepted to extract metadata
-3. **Usage Extraction**: Token counts, model info, and timing data are captured
-4. **Async Tracking**: Usage data is sent to Revenium in the background (fire-and-forget)
-5. **Transparent Response**: Original OpenAI responses are returned unchanged
-
-The middleware never blocks your application - if Revenium tracking fails, your OpenAI requests continue normally.
-
-## 🔍 Troubleshooting
-
-### Common Issues
-
-#### 1. **No tracking data in dashboard**
-
-**Symptoms**: OpenAI calls work but no data appears in Revenium dashboard
-
-**Solution**: Enable debug logging to check middleware status:
-
-```bash
-export REVENIUM_DEBUG=true
-```
-
-**Expected output for successful tracking**:
-
-```bash
-[Revenium Debug] OpenAI chat.completions.create intercepted
-[Revenium Debug] Revenium tracking successful
-
-# For Responses API:
-[Revenium Debug] OpenAI responses.create intercepted
-[Revenium Debug] Revenium tracking successful
-```
-
-#### 2. **Environment mismatch errors**
-
-**Symptoms**: Authentication errors or 401/403 responses
-
-**Solution**: Ensure your API key matches your base URL environment:
-
-```bash
-# ✅ Correct - Production key with production URL
-REVENIUM_METERING_API_KEY=hak_prod_key_here
-REVENIUM_METERING_BASE_URL=https://api.revenium.io/meter
-
-# ✅ Correct - QA key with QA URL
-REVENIUM_METERING_API_KEY=hak_qa_key_here
-REVENIUM_METERING_BASE_URL=https://api.qa.hcapp.io/meter
-
-# ❌ Wrong - Production key with QA URL
-REVENIUM_METERING_API_KEY=hak_prod_key_here
-REVENIUM_METERING_BASE_URL=https://api.qa.hcapp.io/meter
-```
-
-#### 3. **TypeScript type errors**
-
-**Symptoms**: TypeScript errors about `usageMetadata` property
-
-**Solution**: Ensure you're importing the middleware before OpenAI:
-
-```typescript
-// ✅ Correct order
-import { initializeReveniumFromEnv, patchOpenAIInstance } from '@revenium/openai';
-import OpenAI from 'openai';
-
-// ❌ Wrong order
-import OpenAI from 'openai';
-import { initializeReveniumFromEnv, patchOpenAIInstance } from '@revenium/openai';
-```
-
-#### 4. **Azure OpenAI not working**
-
-**Symptoms**: Azure OpenAI calls not being tracked
-
-**Solution**: Ensure you're using `patchOpenAIInstance()` with your Azure client:
-
-```typescript
-import { AzureOpenAI } from 'openai';
-import { patchOpenAIInstance } from '@revenium/openai';
-
-// ✅ Correct
-const azure = patchOpenAIInstance(new AzureOpenAI({...}));
-
-// ❌ Wrong - not patched
-const azure = new AzureOpenAI({...});
-```
-
-#### 5. **Responses API not available**
-
-**Symptoms**: `openai.responses.create` is undefined
-
-**Solution**: Upgrade to OpenAI SDK 5.8+ for Responses API support:
-
-```bash
-npm install openai@^5.8.0
-```
-
-### Debug Mode
-
-Enable comprehensive debug logging:
-
-```bash
-export REVENIUM_DEBUG=true
-```
-
-This will show:
-
-- ✅ Middleware initialization status
-- ✅ Request interception confirmations
-- ✅ Metadata extraction details
-- ✅ Tracking success/failure messages
-- ✅ Error details and stack traces
-
-### Getting Help
-
-If you're still experiencing issues:
-
-1. **Check the logs** with `REVENIUM_DEBUG=true`
-2. **Verify environment variables** are set correctly
-3. **Test with minimal example** from our documentation
-4. **Contact support** with debug logs and error details

+## Package Migration
+
+This package has been renamed from `revenium-middleware-openai-node` to `@revenium/openai` for better organization and simpler naming.
+
+### Migration Steps
+
+If you're upgrading from the old package:
+
+```bash
+# Uninstall the old package
+npm uninstall revenium-middleware-openai-node
+
+# Install the new package
+npm install @revenium/openai
+```
+
+**Update your imports:**
+
+```typescript
+// Old import
+import { patchOpenAIInstance } from "revenium-middleware-openai-node";
+
+// New import
+import { patchOpenAIInstance } from "@revenium/openai";
+```
+
+All functionality remains exactly the same - only the package name has changed.
+
+## Getting Started
+
+Choose your preferred approach to get started quickly:
+
+### Option 1: Create Project from Scratch
+
+Perfect for new projects. We'll guide you step-by-step from `mkdir` to running tests.
+[Go to Step-by-Step Guide](#option-1-create-project-from-scratch)
+
+### Option 2: Clone Our Repository
+
+Clone and run the repository with working examples.
+[Go to Repository Guide](#option-2-clone-our-repository)
+
+### Option 3: Add to Existing Project
+
+Already have a project? Just install and replace imports.
+[Go to Integration Guide](#option-3-existing-project-integration)
+
+---
+
+## Option 1: Create Project from Scratch
+
+### Step 1: Create Project Directory
+
+```bash
+# Create and navigate to your project
+mkdir my-openai-project
+cd my-openai-project
+
+# Initialize npm project
+npm init -y
+```
+
+### Step 2: Install Dependencies
+
+```bash
+# Install the middleware and OpenAI SDK
+npm install @revenium/openai openai@^5.8.0 dotenv
+
+# For TypeScript projects (optional)
+npm install -D typescript tsx @types/node
+```
+
+### Step 3: Setup Environment Variables
+
+Create a `.env` file in your project root:
+
+```bash
+# Create .env file
+echo. > .env  # On Windows (CMD)
+touch .env  # On Mac/Linux
+# OR PowerShell
+New-Item -Path .env -ItemType File
+```
+
+Copy and paste the following into `.env`:
+
+```env
+# Revenium OpenAI Middleware Configuration
+# Copy this file to .env and fill in your actual values
+
+# Required: Your Revenium API key (starts with hak_)
+REVENIUM_METERING_API_KEY=hak_your_revenium_api_key_here
+REVENIUM_METERING_BASE_URL=https://api.revenium.io/meter
+
+# Required: Your OpenAI API key (starts with sk-)
+OPENAI_API_KEY=sk_your_openai_api_key_here
+
+# Optional: Your Azure OpenAI configuration (for Azure testing)
+AZURE_OPENAI_ENDPOINT=https://your-resource-name.openai.azure.com/
+AZURE_OPENAI_API_KEY=your-azure-openai-api-key-here
+AZURE_OPENAI_DEPLOYMENT=your-deployment-name-here
+AZURE_OPENAI_API_VERSION=2024-12-01-preview
+
+# Optional: Enable debug logging
+REVENIUM_DEBUG=false
+```
+
+**NOTE**: Replace each `your_..._here` with your actual values.
+
+**IMPORTANT**: Ensure your `REVENIUM_METERING_API_KEY` matches your `REVENIUM_METERING_BASE_URL` environment. Mismatched credentials will cause authentication failures.
+
+### Step 4: Protect Your API Keys
+
+**CRITICAL SECURITY**: Never commit your `.env` file to version control!
+
+Your `.env` file contains sensitive API keys that must be kept secret:
+
+```bash
+# Verify .env is in your .gitignore
+git check-ignore .env
+```
+
+If the command returns nothing, add `.env` to your `.gitignore`:
+
+```gitignore
+# Environment variables
+.env
+.env.*
+!.env.example
+```
+
+**Best Practice**: Use GitHub's standard Node.gitignore as a starting point:

+
+### Step 5: Create Your First Test
+
+#### TypeScript Test
+
+Create `test-openai.ts`:
+
+```typescript
+import 'dotenv/config';
+import { initializeReveniumFromEnv, patchOpenAIInstance } from '@revenium/openai';
+import OpenAI from 'openai';
+
+async function testOpenAI() {
+  try {
+    // Initialize Revenium middleware
+    const initResult = initializeReveniumFromEnv();
+    if (!initResult.success) {
+      console.error(' Failed to initialize Revenium:', initResult.message);
+      process.exit(1);
+    }
+
+    // Create and patch OpenAI instance
+    const openai = patchOpenAIInstance(new OpenAI());
+
+    const response = await openai.chat.completions.create({
+      model: 'gpt-4o-mini',
+      max_tokens: 100,
+      messages: [{ role: 'user', content: 'What is artificial intelligence?' }],
+      usageMetadata: {
+        subscriber: {
+          id: 'user-456',
+          email: 'user@demo-org.com',
+          credential: {
+            name: 'demo-api-key',
+            value: 'demo-key-123',
+          },
+        },
+        organizationId: 'demo-org-123',
+        productId: 'ai-assistant-v2',
+        taskType: 'educational-query',
+        agent: 'openai-basic-demo',
+        traceId: 'session-' + Date.now(),
+      },
+    });
+
+    const text = response.choices[0]?.message?.content || 'No response';
+    console.log('Response:', text);
+  } catch (error) {
+    console.error('Error:', error);
+  }
+}
+
+testOpenAI();
+```
+
+#### JavaScript Test
+
+Create `test-openai.js`:
+
+```javascript
+require('dotenv').config();
+const {
+  initializeReveniumFromEnv,
+  patchOpenAIInstance,
+} = require('@revenium/openai');
+const OpenAI = require('openai');
+
+async function testOpenAI() {
+  try {
+    // Initialize Revenium middleware
+    const initResult = initializeReveniumFromEnv();
+    if (!initResult.success) {
+      console.error(' Failed to initialize Revenium:', initResult.message);
+      process.exit(1);
+    }
+
+    // Create and patch OpenAI instance
+    const openai = patchOpenAIInstance(new OpenAI());
+
+    const response = await openai.chat.completions.create({
+      model: 'gpt-4o-mini',
+      max_tokens: 100,
+      messages: [{ role: 'user', content: 'What is artificial intelligence?' }],
+      usageMetadata: {
+        subscriber: {
+          id: 'user-456',
+          email: 'user@demo-org.com',
+        },
+        organizationId: 'demo-org-123',
+        taskType: 'educational-query',
+      },
+    });
+
+    const text = response.choices[0]?.message?.content || 'No response';
+    console.log('Response:', text);
+  } catch (error) {
+    // Handle error appropriately
+  }
+}
+
+testOpenAI();
+```
+
+### Step 6: Add Package Scripts
+
+Update your `package.json`:
+
+```json
+{
+  "name": "my-openai-project",
+  "version": "1.0.0",
+  "type": "commonjs",
+  "scripts": {
+    "test-ts": "npx tsx test-openai.ts",
+    "test-js": "node test-openai.js"
+  },
+  "dependencies": {
+    "@revenium/openai": "^1.0.11",
+    "openai": "^5.8.0",
+    "dotenv": "^16.5.0"
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### Step 7: Run Your Tests
+
+```bash
+# Test TypeScript version
+npm run test-ts
+
+# Test JavaScript version
+npm run test-js
+```
+
+### Step 8: Project Structure
+
+Your project should now look like this:
+
+```
+my-openai-project/
+├── .env                   # Environment variables
+├── .gitignore             # Git ignore file
+├── package.json           # Project configuration
+├── test-openai.ts         # TypeScript test
+└── test-openai.js         # JavaScript test
+```
+
+## Option 2: Clone Our Repository
+
+### Step 1: Clone the Repository
+
+```bash
+# Clone the repository
+git clone git@github.com:revenium/revenium-middleware-openai-node.git
+cd revenium-middleware-openai-node
+```
+
+### Step 2: Install Dependencies
+
+```bash
+# Install all dependencies
+npm install
+npm install @revenium/openai
+```
+
+### Step 3: Setup Environment Variables
+
+Create a `.env` file in the project root:
+
+```bash
+# Create .env file
+cp .env.example .env  # If available, or create manually
+```
+
+Copy and paste the following into `.env`:
+
+```bash
+# Revenium OpenAI Middleware Configuration
+# Copy this file to .env and fill in your actual values
+
+# Required: Your Revenium API key (starts with hak_)
+REVENIUM_METERING_API_KEY=hak_your_revenium_api_key_here
+REVENIUM_METERING_BASE_URL=https://api.revenium.io/meter
+
+# Required: Your OpenAI API key (starts with sk-)
+OPENAI_API_KEY=sk_your_openai_api_key_here
+
+# Optional: Your Azure OpenAI configuration (for Azure testing)
+AZURE_OPENAI_ENDPOINT=https://your-resource-name.openai.azure.com/
+AZURE_OPENAI_API_KEY=your-azure-openai-api-key-here
+AZURE_OPENAI_DEPLOYMENT=your-deployment-name-here
+AZURE_OPENAI_API_VERSION=2024-12-01-preview
+
+# Optional: Enable debug logging
+REVENIUM_DEBUG=false
+```
+
+**IMPORTANT**: Ensure your `REVENIUM_METERING_API_KEY` matches your `REVENIUM_METERING_BASE_URL` environment. Mismatched credentials will cause authentication failures.
+
+### Step 4: Build the Project
+
+```bash
+# Build the middleware
+npm run build
+```
+
+### Step 5: Run the Examples
+
+The repository includes working example files:
+
+```bash
+# Run Chat Completions API examples (using npm scripts)
+npm run example:openai-basic
+npm run example:openai-streaming
+npm run example:azure-basic
+npm run example:azure-streaming
+
+# Run Responses API examples (available with OpenAI SDK 5.8+)
+npm run example:openai-responses-basic
+npm run example:openai-responses-streaming
+npm run example:azure-responses-basic
+npm run example:azure-responses-streaming
+
+# Or run examples directly with tsx
+npx tsx examples/openai-basic.ts
+npx tsx examples/openai-streaming.ts
+npx tsx examples/azure-basic.ts
+npx tsx examples/azure-streaming.ts
+npx tsx examples/openai-responses-basic.ts
+npx tsx examples/openai-responses-streaming.ts
+npx tsx examples/azure-responses-basic.ts
+npx tsx examples/azure-responses-streaming.ts
+```
+
+These examples demonstrate:
+
+- **Chat Completions API** - Traditional OpenAI chat completions and embeddings
+- **Responses API** - New OpenAI Responses API with enhanced capabilities
+- **Azure OpenAI** - Full Azure OpenAI integration with automatic detection
+- **Streaming Support** - Real-time response streaming with metadata tracking
+- **Optional Metadata** - Rich business context and user tracking
+- **Error Handling** - Robust error handling and debugging
+
+## Option 3: Existing Project Integration
+
+Already have a project? Just install and replace imports:
+
+### Step 1: Install the Package
+
+```bash
+npm install @revenium/openai
+```
+
+### Step 2: Update Your Imports
+
+**Before:**
+
+```typescript
+import OpenAI from 'openai';
+
+const openai = new OpenAI();
+```
+
+**After:**
+
+```typescript
+import { initializeReveniumFromEnv, patchOpenAIInstance } from '@revenium/openai';
+import OpenAI from 'openai';
+
+// Initialize Revenium middleware
+initializeReveniumFromEnv();
+
+// Patch your OpenAI instance
+const openai = patchOpenAIInstance(new OpenAI());
+```
+
+### Step 3: Add Environment Variables
+
+Add to your `.env` file:
+
+```env
+# Revenium OpenAI Middleware Configuration
+
+# Required: Your Revenium API key (starts with hak_)
+REVENIUM_METERING_API_KEY=hak_your_revenium_api_key_here
+REVENIUM_METERING_BASE_URL=https://api.revenium.io/meter
+
+# Required: Your OpenAI API key (starts with sk-)
+OPENAI_API_KEY=sk_your_openai_api_key_here
+
+# Optional: Your Azure OpenAI configuration (for Azure testing)
+AZURE_OPENAI_ENDPOINT=https://your-resource-name.openai.azure.com/
+AZURE_OPENAI_API_KEY=your-azure-openai-api-key-here
+AZURE_OPENAI_DEPLOYMENT=your-deployment-name-here
+AZURE_OPENAI_API_VERSION=2024-12-01-preview
+
+# Optional: Enable debug logging
+REVENIUM_DEBUG=false
+```
+
+### Step 4: Optional - Add Metadata
+
+Enhance your existing calls with optional metadata:
+
+```typescript
+// Your existing code works unchanged
+const response = await openai.chat.completions.create({
+  model: 'gpt-4o-mini',
+  messages: [{ role: 'user', content: 'Hello!' }],
+  // Add optional metadata for better analytics
+  usageMetadata: {
+    subscriber: { id: 'user-123' },
+    organizationId: 'my-company',
+    taskType: 'chat',
+  },
+});
+```
+
+** That's it!** Your existing OpenAI code now automatically tracks usage to Revenium.
+
+## What Gets Tracked
+
+The middleware automatically captures comprehensive usage data:
+
+### **Usage Metrics**
+
+- **Token Counts** - Input tokens, output tokens, total tokens
+- **Model Information** - Model name, provider (OpenAI/Azure), API version
+- **Request Timing** - Request duration, response time
+- **Cost Calculation** - Estimated costs based on current pricing
+
+### **Business Context (Optional)**
+
+- **User Tracking** - Subscriber ID, email, credentials
+- **Organization Data** - Organization ID, subscription ID, product ID
+- **Task Classification** - Task type, agent identifier, trace ID
+- **Quality Metrics** - Response quality scores, custom metadata
+
+### **Technical Details**
+
+- **API Endpoints** - Chat completions, embeddings, responses API
+- **Request Types** - Streaming vs non-streaming
+- **Error Tracking** - Failed requests, error types, retry attempts
+- **Environment Info** - Development vs production usage
+
+## OpenAI Responses API Support
+
+This middleware includes **full support** for OpenAI's new Responses API, which is designed to replace the traditional Chat Completions API with enhanced capabilities for agent-like applications.
+
+### What is the Responses API?
+
+The Responses API is OpenAI's new stateful API that:
+
+- Uses `input` instead of `messages` parameter for simplified interaction
+- Provides unified experience combining chat completions and assistants capabilities
+- Supports advanced features like background tasks, function calling, and code interpreter
+- Offers better streaming and real-time response generation
+- Works with GPT-5 and other advanced models
+
+### API Comparison
+
+**Traditional Chat Completions:**
+
+```javascript
+const response = await openai.chat.completions.create({
+  model: 'gpt-4o',
+  messages: [{ role: 'user', content: 'Hello' }],
+});
+```
+
+**New Responses API:**
+
+```javascript
+const response = await openai.responses.create({
+  model: 'gpt-5',
+  input: 'Hello', // Simplified input parameter
+});
+```
+
+### Key Differences
+
+| Feature                | Chat Completions             | Responses API                       |
+| ---------------------- | ---------------------------- | ----------------------------------- |
+| **Input Format**       | `messages: [...]`            | `input: "string"` or `input: [...]` |
+| **Models**             | GPT-4, GPT-4o, etc.          | GPT-5, GPT-4o, etc.                 |
+| **Response Structure** | `choices[0].message.content` | `output_text`                       |
+| **Stateful**           | No                           | Yes (with `store: true`)            |
+| **Advanced Features**  | Limited                      | Built-in tools, reasoning, etc.     |
+| **Temperature**        | Supported                    | Not supported with GPT-5            |

+
+### Responses API Examples
+
+The middleware includes comprehensive examples for the new Responses API:
+
+**Basic Usage:**
+
+```typescript
+import { initializeReveniumFromEnv, patchOpenAIInstance } from '@revenium/openai';
+import OpenAI from 'openai';
+
+// Initialize and patch OpenAI instance
+initializeReveniumFromEnv();
+const openai = patchOpenAIInstance(new OpenAI());
+
+// Simple string input
+const response = await openai.responses.create({
+  model: 'gpt-5',
+  input: 'What is the capital of France?',
+  max_output_tokens: 150,
+  usageMetadata: {
+    subscriber: { id: 'user-123', email: 'user@example.com' },
+    organizationId: 'org-456',
+    productId: 'quantum-explainer',
+    taskType: 'educational-content',
+  },
+});
+
+console.log(response.output_text); // "Paris."
+```
+
+**Streaming Example:**
+
+```typescript
+const stream = await openai.responses.create({
+  model: 'gpt-5',
+  input: 'Write a short story about AI',
+  stream: true,
+  max_output_tokens: 500,
+  usageMetadata: {
+    subscriber: { id: 'user-123', email: 'user@example.com' },
+    organizationId: 'org-456',
+  },
+});
+
+for await (const chunk of stream) {
+  process.stdout.write(chunk.delta?.content || '');
+}
+```
+
+### Adding Custom Metadata
+
+Track users, organizations, and custom data with seamless TypeScript integration:
+
+```typescript
+import { initializeReveniumFromEnv, patchOpenAIInstance } from '@revenium/openai';
+import OpenAI from 'openai';
+
+// Initialize and patch OpenAI instance
+initializeReveniumFromEnv();
+const openai = patchOpenAIInstance(new OpenAI());
+
+const response = await openai.chat.completions.create({
+  model: 'gpt-4',
+  messages: [{ role: 'user', content: 'Summarize this document' }],
+  // Add custom tracking metadata - all fields optional, no type casting needed!
+  usageMetadata: {
+    subscriber: {
+      id: 'user-12345',
+      email: 'john@acme-corp.com',
+    },
+    organizationId: 'acme-corp',
+    productId: 'document-ai',
+    taskType: 'document-summary',
+    agent: 'doc-summarizer-v2',
+    traceId: 'session-abc123',
+  },
+});
+
+// Same metadata works with Responses API
+const responsesResult = await openai.responses.create({
+  model: 'gpt-5',
+  input: 'Summarize this document',
+  // Same metadata structure - seamless compatibility!
+  usageMetadata: {
+    subscriber: {
+      id: 'user-12345',
+      email: 'john@acme-corp.com',
+    },
+    organizationId: 'acme-corp',
+    productId: 'document-ai',
+    taskType: 'document-summary',
+    agent: 'doc-summarizer-v2',
+    traceId: 'session-abc123',
+  },
+});
+```
+
+### Streaming Support
+
+The middleware automatically handles streaming requests with seamless metadata:
+
+```typescript
+import { initializeReveniumFromEnv, patchOpenAIInstance } from '@revenium/openai';
+import OpenAI from 'openai';
+
+// Initialize and patch OpenAI instance
+initializeReveniumFromEnv();
+const openai = patchOpenAIInstance(new OpenAI());
+
+const stream = await openai.chat.completions.create({
+  model: 'gpt-4',
+  messages: [{ role: 'user', content: 'Tell me a story' }],
+  stream: true,
+  // Metadata works seamlessly with streaming - all fields optional!
+  usageMetadata: {
+    organizationId: 'story-app',
+    taskType: 'creative-writing',
+  },
+});
+
+for await (const chunk of stream) {
+  process.stdout.write(chunk.choices[0]?.delta?.content || '');
+}
+// Usage tracking happens automatically when stream completes
+```
+
+### Temporarily Disabling Tracking
+
+If you need to disable Revenium tracking temporarily, you can unpatch the OpenAI client:
+
+```javascript
+import { unpatchOpenAI, patchOpenAI } from '@revenium/openai-middleware';
+
+// Disable tracking
+unpatchOpenAI();
+
+// Your OpenAI calls now bypass Revenium tracking
+await openai.chat.completions.create({...});
+
+// Re-enable tracking
+patchOpenAI();
+```
+
+**Common use cases:**
+
+- **Debugging**: Isolate whether issues are caused by the middleware
+- **Testing**: Compare behavior with/without tracking
+- **Conditional tracking**: Enable/disable based on environment
+- **Troubleshooting**: Temporary bypass during incident response
+
+**Note**: This affects all OpenAI instances globally since we patch the prototype methods.
+
+## Azure OpenAI Integration

+```typescript
+// Simple string input with metadata
+const response = await openai.responses.create({
+  model: 'gpt-5',
+  input: 'What is the capital of France?',
+  max_output_tokens: 150,
+  usageMetadata: {
+    subscriber: { id: 'user-123', email: 'user@example.com' },
+    organizationId: 'org-456',
+    productId: 'geography-tutor',
+    taskType: 'educational-query',
+  },
+});
+
+console.log(response.output_text); // "Paris."
+```
+
+### Azure OpenAI Integration
+
+Automatic Azure OpenAI detection with seamless metadata:
+
+```typescript
+import { AzureOpenAI } from 'openai';
+
+// Create and patch Azure OpenAI client
+const azure = patchOpenAIInstance(
+  new AzureOpenAI({
+    endpoint: process.env.AZURE_OPENAI_ENDPOINT,
+    apiKey: process.env.AZURE_OPENAI_API_KEY,
+    apiVersion: process.env.AZURE_OPENAI_API_VERSION,
+  })
+);
+
+// Your existing Azure OpenAI code works with seamless metadata
+const response = await azure.chat.completions.create({
+  model: 'gpt-4o', // Uses your deployment name
+  messages: [{ role: 'user', content: 'Hello from Azure!' }],
+  usageMetadata: {
+    organizationId: 'my-company',
+    taskType: 'azure-chat',
+    agent: 'azure-assistant',
+  },
+});
+```
+
+### Embeddings with Metadata
+
+Track embeddings usage with optional metadata:
+
+```typescript
+const embedding = await openai.embeddings.create({
+  model: 'text-embedding-3-small',
+  input: 'Advanced text embedding with comprehensive tracking metadata',
+  usageMetadata: {
+    subscriber: { id: 'embedding-user-789', email: 'embeddings@company.com' },
+    organizationId: 'my-company',
+    taskType: 'document-embedding',
+    productId: 'search-engine',
+    traceId: `embed-${Date.now()}`,
+    agent: 'openai-embeddings-node',
+  },
+});
+
+console.log('Model:', embedding.model);
+console.log('Usage:', embedding.usage);
+console.log('Embedding dimensions:', embedding.data[0]?.embedding.length);
+```
+
+### Manual Configuration
+
+For advanced use cases, configure the middleware manually:
+
+```typescript
+import { configure } from '@revenium/openai';
+
+configure({
+  reveniumApiKey: 'hak_your_api_key',
+  reveniumBaseUrl: 'https://api.revenium.io/meter',
+  apiTimeout: 5000,
+  failSilent: true,
+  maxRetries: 3,
+});
+```
+
+## Configuration Options
+
+### Environment Variables
+
+| Variable                       | Required | Default                         | Description                                    |
+| ------------------------------ | -------- | ------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------- |
+| `REVENIUM_METERING_API_KEY`    | true     | -                               | Your Revenium API key (starts with `hak_`)     |
+| `OPENAI_API_KEY`               | true     | -                               | Your OpenAI API key (starts with `sk-`)        |
+| `REVENIUM_METERING_BASE_URL`   | false    | `https://api.revenium.io/meter` | Revenium metering API base URL                 |
+| `REVENIUM_DEBUG`               | false    | `false`                         | Enable debug logging (`true`/`false`)          |
+| `AZURE_OPENAI_ENDPOINT`        | false    | -                               | Azure OpenAI endpoint URL (for Azure testing)  |
+| `AZURE_OPENAI_API_KEY`         | false    | -                               | Azure OpenAI API key (for Azure testing)       |
+| `AZURE_OPENAI_DEPLOYMENT`      | false    | -                               | Azure OpenAI deployment name (for Azure)       |
+| `AZURE_OPENAI_API_VERSION`     | false    | `2024-12-01-preview`            | Azure OpenAI API version (for Azure)           |
+
+**Important Note about `REVENIUM_METERING_BASE_URL`:**
+
+- This variable is **optional** and defaults to the production URL (`https://api.revenium.io/meter`)
+- If you don't set it explicitly, the middleware will use the default production endpoint
+- However, you may see console warnings or errors if the middleware cannot determine the correct environment
+- **Best practice:** Always set this variable explicitly to match your environment:
+
+  ```bash
+  # Default production URL (recommended)
+  REVENIUM_METERING_BASE_URL=https://api.revenium.io/meter
+  ```
+
+- **Remember:** Your `REVENIUM_METERING_API_KEY` must match your base URL environment
+
+### Usage Metadata Options
+
+All metadata fields are optional and help provide better analytics:
+
+```typescript
+interface UsageMetadata {
+  traceId?: string; // Session or conversation ID
+  taskType?: string; // Type of AI task (e.g., "chat", "summary")
+  subscriber?: {
+    // User information (nested structure)
+    id?: string; // User ID from your system
+    email?: string; // User's email address
+    credential?: {
+      // User credentials
+      name?: string; // Credential name
+      value?: string; // Credential value
+    };
+  };
+  organizationId?: string; // Organization/company ID
+  subscriptionId?: string; // Billing plan ID
+  productId?: string; // Your product/feature ID
+  agent?: string; // AI agent identifier
+  responseQualityScore?: number; // Quality score (0-1)
+}
+```
+

+For detailed setup instructions and usage patterns, see [examples/README.md](https://github.com/revenium/revenium-middleware-openai-node/blob/HEAD/examples/README.md).
+
+## How It Works
+
+1. **Automatic Patching**: When imported, the middleware patches OpenAI's methods:
+   - `chat.completions.create` (Chat Completions API)
+   - `responses.create` (Responses API - when available)
+   - `embeddings.create` (Embeddings API)
+2. **Request Interception**: All OpenAI requests are intercepted to extract metadata
+3. **Usage Extraction**: Token counts, model info, and timing data are captured
+4. **Async Tracking**: Usage data is sent to Revenium in the background (fire-and-forget)
+5. **Transparent Response**: Original OpenAI responses are returned unchanged
+
+The middleware never blocks your application - if Revenium tracking fails, your OpenAI requests continue normally.
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Common Issues
+
+#### 1. **No tracking data in dashboard**
+
+**Symptoms**: OpenAI calls work but no data appears in Revenium dashboard
+
+**Solution**: Enable debug logging to check middleware status:
+
+```bash
+export REVENIUM_DEBUG=true
+```
+
+**Expected output for successful tracking**:
+
+```bash
+[Revenium Debug] OpenAI chat.completions.create intercepted
+[Revenium Debug] Revenium tracking successful
+
+# For Responses API:
+[Revenium Debug] OpenAI responses.create intercepted
+[Revenium Debug] Revenium tracking successful
+```
+
+#### 2. **Environment mismatch errors**
+
+**Symptoms**: Authentication errors or 401/403 responses
+
+**Solution**: Ensure your API key matches your base URL environment:
+
+```bash
+#  Correct - Key and URL from same environment
+REVENIUM_METERING_API_KEY=hak_your_api_key_here
+REVENIUM_METERING_BASE_URL=https://api.revenium.io/meter
+
+#  Wrong - Key and URL from different environments
+REVENIUM_METERING_API_KEY=hak_wrong_environment_key
+REVENIUM_METERING_BASE_URL=https://api.revenium.io/meter
+```
+
+#### 3. **TypeScript type errors**
+
+**Symptoms**: TypeScript errors about `usageMetadata` property
+
+**Solution**: Ensure you're importing the middleware before OpenAI:
+
+```typescript
+//  Correct order
+import { initializeReveniumFromEnv, patchOpenAIInstance } from '@revenium/openai';
+import OpenAI from 'openai';
+
+//  Wrong order
+import OpenAI from 'openai';
+import { initializeReveniumFromEnv, patchOpenAIInstance } from '@revenium/openai';
+```
+
+#### 4. **Azure OpenAI not working**
+
+**Symptoms**: Azure OpenAI calls not being tracked
+
+**Solution**: Ensure you're using `patchOpenAIInstance()` with your Azure client:
+
+```typescript
+import { AzureOpenAI } from 'openai';
+import { patchOpenAIInstance } from '@revenium/openai';
+
+//  Correct
+const azure = patchOpenAIInstance(new AzureOpenAI({...}));
+
+//  Wrong - not patched
+const azure = new AzureOpenAI({...});
+```
+
+#### 5. **Responses API not available**
+
+**Symptoms**: `openai.responses.create` is undefined
+
+**Solution**: Upgrade to OpenAI SDK 5.8+ for Responses API support:
+
+```bash
+npm install openai@^5.8.0
+```
+
+### Debug Mode
+
+Enable comprehensive debug logging:
+
+```bash
+export REVENIUM_DEBUG=true
+```
+
+This will show:
+
+-  Middleware initialization status
+-  Request interception confirmations
+-  Metadata extraction details
+-  Tracking success/failure messages
+-  Error details and stack traces
+
+### Getting Help
+
+If you're still experiencing issues:
+
+1. **Check the logs** with `REVENIUM_DEBUG=true`
+2. **Verify environment variables** are set correctly
+3. **Test with minimal example** from our documentation
+4. **Contact support** with debug logs and error details
