Setup guides
Every tool needs the same three things: a base URL, your key and a model ID. Each guide shows exactly where they go.
What every tool needs
- Base URL (OpenAI format)
https://api.6bee.ai/v1- Base URL (Anthropic format)
https://api.6bee.ai- API key
- Created in the console under API keys.
- Model ID
- From the console or
GET /v1/models.
Create an account with a verified email address, add prepaid balance, then create a key on the console's API keys page. Keep the key secret.
Which base URL goes where
Most setup problems are one /v1 too many or too few. This is what each tool expects:
| Tool | Format | What to enter |
|---|---|---|
| Claude Code, Anthropic SDK | Anthropic | https://api.6bee.ai |
| Codex | OpenAI Responses | https://api.6bee.ai/v1 |
| OpenCode, Cline, Roo Code, Kilo Code, Aider, Continue, Zed | OpenAI | https://api.6bee.ai/v1 |
| Chatbox, Open WebUI, SillyTavern, LibreChat | OpenAI | https://api.6bee.ai/v1 |
| Cherry Studio | OpenAI | https://api.6bee.ai (it adds /v1 itself) |
| OpenAI SDK, Vercel AI SDK, LangChain, LiteLLM | OpenAI | https://api.6bee.ai/v1 |
After setup, send one short message and look at the console’s usage log. If the request is listed there, the tool is connected.
Coding agents
- Claude Code Claude Code talks to any server that speaks the Anthropic Messages format. Change three environment variables and it runs on 6bee.ai models.
- Codex Codex speaks the OpenAI Responses format. Add 6bee.ai as a model provider in its config file and it runs on 6bee.ai models.
- OpenCode OpenCode can use any OpenAI-compatible provider. Add 6bee.ai to its config file with the base URL and the model you want.
- Cline and Roo Code Cline and Roo Code are editor agents that accept any OpenAI-compatible provider. Enter the base URL, your key and a model ID.
- Kilo Code Kilo Code is an editor agent that accepts any OpenAI-compatible provider. Enter the base URL, your key and a model ID.
- Aider Aider connects to any OpenAI-compatible API. Set two environment variables and pass the model with an openai/ prefix.
- Continue Continue reads its models from a config file. Add one block with the 6bee.ai base URL, your key and a model ID.
- Zed Zed’s agent accepts OpenAI-compatible providers. Add 6bee.ai in the provider settings, or directly in settings.json.
Chat and role-play
- Cherry Studio Cherry Studio adds 6bee.ai as an OpenAI-type provider. Fill in five fields, or import them from the console in one click.
- Chatbox Chatbox adds 6bee.ai as an “OpenAI API Compatible” provider. Six fields and a connection check.
- Open WebUI Open WebUI talks to any OpenAI-compatible API. Add 6bee.ai as a connection and its models appear in the model menu.
- SillyTavern SillyTavern connects to 6bee.ai as a Custom (OpenAI-compatible) source. The models are uncensored, so role-play does not need a jailbreak prompt.
- LibreChat LibreChat adds OpenAI-compatible services as custom endpoints in librechat.yaml. One block is enough.
SDKs and frameworks
- SDKs and curl If your code already uses the OpenAI or Anthropic SDK, change the base URL and the key. Nothing else needs a new library.
- Vercel AI SDK The AI SDK has a provider for OpenAI-compatible APIs. Create it once with the 6bee.ai base URL and use it like any other model.
- LangChain LangChain’s ChatOpenAI works with any OpenAI-compatible API. Give it the 6bee.ai base URL, your key and a model ID.
- LiteLLM LiteLLM reaches 6bee.ai through its OpenAI-compatible route: prefix the model with openai/ and pass the base URL.
