Run this after saving. A reply confirms the base URL, key, and model together.
# bash / zsh: enter the full key at the hidden prompt

Calling from code instead? The base URL stays the same.
import OpenAI from "openai";
const client = new OpenAI({
apiKey: process.env.MINIROUTER_KEY,
baseURL: "https://api.minirouter.sh/v1",
});
const result = await client.chat.completions.create({
model: "meta/llama-3.3-70b",
messages: [{ role: "user", content: "ping" }],
});
console.log(result.choices[0]?.message.content);Models and errors
Model IDs are author/name from the model catalog. Failed requests are explained in the error reference.
