# Continue CLI

[Markdown](https://ailoot.ai/docs/en/integrations/continue-cli/index.md)

Terminal agent · OpenAI Chat

| Format | Where to set it up |
| --- | --- |
| OpenAI Chat | Continue YAML configuration (config.yaml), passed to the CLI with --config \<path\> |

## [](https://ailoot.ai/docs/integrations/continue-cli/#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, then use that ID in the configuration. For agents, also check tool support and the features required by your client version.

`ailoot.yaml`

```text
name: Ailoot
version: 0.0.1
schema: v1
models:
  - name: Claude Sonnet 5.5 (Ailoot)
    provider: openai
    model: claude-sonnet-5-5
    apiBase: https://api.ailoot.ai/v1
    apiKey: sk-...

# run:
cn --config ./ailoot.yaml
```

Example model: `claude-sonnet-5-5`. 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/continue-cli/#notes)Good to know

For OpenAI-compatible services, Continue uses provider: openai and an apiBase with /v1. The configuration format is shared by the extension and CLI; pass the file with the --config flag.

## [](https://ailoot.ai/docs/integrations/continue-cli/#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).
- 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/).
