+#### OpenAI Integration (`openai` group)
+
+```bash
+pip install -e ".[openai]"
+```
+
+Includes:
+
+- `openai>=1.0.0,<3.0.0` - OpenAI API client (supports 2.x versions)
+- `tiktoken>=0.5.0,<1.0.0` - Token counting for OpenAI models
+

+
+```bash
+pip install -e ".[dev]"
+```
+
+Includes testing, linting, and development tools.
+
+### Automatic Optional Dependencies
+
+These are installed automatically when needed:
 
 - `sentence-transformers` - For sentence transformer embeddings
-- `openai` - For OpenAI API integration
 
 ### Development Dependencies
