Crush

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.

~/.config/crush/crushrc

export AILOOT_API_KEY="sk-..."
provider add ailoot --type openai-compat \
  --base-url "https://api.ailoot.ai/v1" \
  --api-key "$AILOOT_API_KEY"

model add ailoot/deepseek-v4-pro \
  --name "DeepSeek V4 Pro (Ailoot)" \
  --context-window 1000000 \
  --default-max-tokens 32000

# Anthropic format for Claude: URL without /v1
provider add ailoot-claude --type anthropic \
  --base-url "https://api.ailoot.ai" \
  --api-key "$AILOOT_API_KEY"

model add ailoot-claude/claude-sonnet-5-5 \
  --name "Claude Sonnet 5.5 (Ailoot)" \
  --context-window 1000000 \
  --default-max-tokens 64000 \
  --can-reason true --supports-images false

This configuration reads the key from the environment variable AILOOT_API_KEY. Set it before starting the application:

export AILOOT_API_KEY="sk-..."   # add to ~/.zshrc or ~/.bashrc

setx AILOOT_API_KEY "sk-..."   # then restart the terminal

Example model: deepseek-v4-pro. Choose any other model from the catalog — check that it supports the format you need.

• 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.ai without /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.
