| Format | Where to set it up |
|---|---|
| OpenAI Chat, Anthropic Messages | Cline panel → gear icon (Settings) → API Provider = “OpenAI Compatible” → Base URL, API Key, Model ID fields. Another option: API Provider = “Anthropic” → check “Use custom base URL”. |
Setup
Copy the configuration and replace sk-... with your key from the Ailoot Dashboard. Prefer storing the key in the environment variable AILOOT_API_KEY, if the application supports it.
Before starting, request GET /v1/models with your Ailoot key. Choose an exact model ID whose methods include POST /v1/chat/completions, POST /v1/messages, then use that ID in the configuration. For agents, also check tool support and the features required by your client version.
OpenAI Compatible (recommended):
API Provider: OpenAI Compatible
Base URL: https://api.ailoot.ai/v1
API Key: sk-...
Model ID: claude-sonnet-5-5 (or gpt-6.1-sol, deepseek-v4-pro, qwen3.8-max)
Model Configuration: Context Window and Max Output Tokens — match the model; Image Support — only for models that can process images.
Anthropic (Messages):
API Provider: Anthropic
Anthropic API Key: sk-...
[x] Use custom base URL → https://api.ailoot.aiExample model: claude-sonnet-5-5. Choose any other model from the catalog — check that it supports the format you need.
Good to know
Test
- For the OpenAI format, the URL is
https://api.ailoot.ai/v1(or the full path if the application asks for a full URL). - For the Anthropic format, the URL is
https://api.ailoot.aiwithout/v1. - Ask a short question. If you get an error, check the code and Request ID, then consult Errors and limits.
- 404 immediately after setup almost always means the URL is wrong: an extra or missing
/v1. - 402 — insufficient balance for the reserve. Agents reserve more than chat: why.
