Terminal agent · OpenAI Chat, Anthropic Messages, Gemini

| Format | Where to set it up |
| --- | --- |
| OpenAI Chat, Anthropic Messages, Gemini | AIChat config.yaml → clients (types openai-compatible, claude, gemini); model: -m \<client\>:\<model\> |

## [](https://ailoot.ai/docs/integrations/aichat/#setup)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, POST /v1beta/models/{model}:generateContent, then use that ID in the configuration. For agents, also check tool support and the features required by your client version.

```yaml
clients:
  - type: openai-compatible
    name: ailoot
    api_base: https://api.ailoot.ai/v1
    api_key: sk-...
    models:
      - name: deepseek-v4-pro
        max_input_tokens: 1000000
        supports_function_calling: true
  - type: claude
    api_base: https://api.ailoot.ai/v1
    api_key: sk-...
  - type: gemini
    api_base: https://api.ailoot.ai/v1beta
    api_key: sk-...
```

```bash
aichat -m ailoot:deepseek-v4-pro 'Hello'
```

Example model: `deepseek-v4-pro`. Choose any other model from the [catalog](https://ailoot.ai/models/en/) — check that it supports the format you need.

## [](https://ailoot.ai/docs/integrations/aichat/#notes)Good to know

In AIChat's example configuration, api\_base for claude includes /v1, while gemini uses /v1beta; use the same paths for Ailoot. The three clients provide access to all three Ailoot formats: OpenAI, Anthropic, and Gemini.

## [](https://ailoot.ai/docs/integrations/aichat/#check)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 SDK, the base URL is `https://api.ailoot.ai` without `/v1`.
- For the Google GenAI SDK, the base URL is `https://api.ailoot.ai` without `/v1beta`.
- Ask a short question. If you get an error, check the code and Request ID, then consult [Errors and limits](https://ailoot.ai/docs/en/errors/).
- 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](https://ailoot.ai/docs/en/billing/reserve/).
