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.

{
  "providers": {
    "ailoot": {
      "baseUrl": "https://api.ailoot.ai/v1",
      "api": "openai-completions",
      "apiKey": "$AILOOT_API_KEY",
      "models": [
        {
          "id": "claude-sonnet-5-5",
          "input": [
            "text",
            "image"
          ]
        },
        {
          "id": "deepseek-v4-pro"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

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: claude-sonnet-5-5. 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 — the API origin. The example above does not show the full setup for this format; consult the client’s documentation for the path to use in the relevant field. The API route prefix is /v1.
• For the Gemini format, the URL is https://api.ailoot.ai — the API origin. The example above does not show the full setup for this format; consult the client’s documentation for the path to use in the relevant field. The API route prefix is /v1beta.
• 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.
