# Model providers
|
||
|
||
This page covers **LLM/model providers** (not chat channels like WhatsApp/Telegram).
|
||
For model selection rules, see [/concepts/models](/concepts/models).
|
||
|
||
## Quick rules
|
||
|
||
- Model refs use `provider/model` (example: `opencode/claude-opus-4-5`).
|
||
- If you set `agents.defaults.models`, it becomes the allowlist.
|
||
- CLI helpers: `clawdbot onboard`, `clawdbot models list`, `clawdbot models set <provider/model>`.
|
||
|
||
## Built-in providers (pi-ai catalog)
|
||
|
||
Clawdbot ships with the pi‑ai catalog. These providers require **no**
|
||
`models.providers` config; just set auth + pick a model.
|
||
|
||
### OpenAI
|
||
|
||
- Provider: `openai`
|
||
- Auth: `OPENAI_API_KEY`
|
||
- Example model: `openai/gpt-5.2`
|
||
- CLI: `clawdbot onboard --auth-choice openai-api-key`
|
||
|
||
```json5
|
||
{
|
||
agents: { defaults: { model: { primary: "openai/gpt-5.2" } } }
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||

## Providers via `models.providers` (custom/base URL)
|

|
||
Use `models.providers` (or `models.json`) to add **custom** providers or
|
||
OpenAI/Anthropic‑compatible proxies.
|
||
|
||
### Moonshot AI (Kimi)
|
||
|
||
Moonshot uses OpenAI-compatible endpoints, so configure it as a custom provider:
|
||
|
||
- Provider: `moonshot`
|
||
- Auth: `MOONSHOT_API_KEY`
|
||
- Example model: `moonshot/kimi-k2-0905-preview`
|
||
- Kimi K2 model IDs:
|
||
{/* moonshot-kimi-k2-model-refs:start */}
|
||
- `moonshot/kimi-k2-0905-preview`
|
||
- `moonshot/kimi-k2-turbo-preview`
|
||
- `moonshot/kimi-k2-thinking`
|
||
- `moonshot/kimi-k2-thinking-turbo`
|
||
{/* moonshot-kimi-k2-model-refs:end */}
|
||
```json5
|
||
{
|
||
agents: {
|
||
defaults: { model: { primary: "moonshot/kimi-k2-0905-preview" } }
|
||
},
|
||
models: {
|
||
mode: "merge",
|
||
providers: {
|
||
moonshot: {
|
||
baseUrl: "https://api.moonshot.ai/v1",
|
||
apiKey: "${MOONSHOT_API_KEY}",
|
||
api: "openai-completions",
|
||
models: [{ id: "kimi-k2-0905-preview", name: "Kimi K2 0905 Preview" }]
|
||
}
|
||
}
|
||
}
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Kimi Code
|
||
|
||
Kimi Code uses a dedicated endpoint and key (separate from Moonshot):
|
||
|
||
- Provider: `kimi-code`
|
||
- Auth: `KIMICODE_API_KEY`
|
||
- Example model: `kimi-code/kimi-for-coding`
|
||
|
||
```json5
|
||
{
|
||
env: { KIMICODE_API_KEY: "sk-..." },
|
||
agents: {
|
||
defaults: { model: { primary: "kimi-code/kimi-for-coding" } }
|
||
},
|
||
models: {
|
||
mode: "merge",
|
||
providers: {
|
||
"kimi-code": {
|
||
baseUrl: "https://api.kimi.com/coding/v1",
|
||
apiKey: "${KIMICODE_API_KEY}",
|
||
api: "openai-completions",
|
||
models: [{ id: "kimi-for-coding", name: "Kimi For Coding" }]
|
||
}
|
||
}
|
||
}
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Qwen OAuth (free tier)
|
||
|
||
Qwen provides OAuth access to Qwen Coder + Vision via a device-code flow.
|
||
Enable the bundled plugin, then log in:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
clawdbot plugins enable qwen-portal-auth
|
||
clawdbot models auth login --provider qwen-portal --set-default
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Model refs:
|
||
- `qwen-portal/coder-model`
|
||
- `qwen-portal/vision-model`
|
||
|
||
See [/providers/qwen](/providers/qwen) for setup details and notes.
|
||
|
||
### Synthetic
|
||
|
||
Synthetic provides Anthropic-compatible models behind the `synthetic` provider:
|
||
|
||
- Provider: `synthetic`
|
||
- Auth: `SYNTHETIC_API_KEY`
|
||
- Example model: `synthetic/hf:MiniMaxAI/MiniMax-M2.1`
|
||
- CLI: `clawdbot onboard --auth-choice synthetic-api-key`
|
||
|
||
```json5
|
||
{
|
||
agents: {
|
||
defaults: { model: { primary: "synthetic/hf:MiniMaxAI/MiniMax-M2.1" } }
|
||
},
|
||
models: {
|
||
mode: "merge",
|
||
providers: {
|
||
synthetic: {
|
||
baseUrl: "https://api.synthetic.new/anthropic",
|
||
apiKey: "${SYNTHETIC_API_KEY}",
|
||
api: "anthropic-messages",
|
||
models: [{ id: "hf:MiniMaxAI/MiniMax-M2.1", name: "MiniMax M2.1" }]
|
||
}
|
||
}
|
||
}
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### MiniMax
|
||
|
||
MiniMax is configured via `models.providers` because it uses custom endpoints:
|
||
|
||
- MiniMax (Anthropic‑compatible): `--auth-choice minimax-api`
|
||
- Auth: `MINIMAX_API_KEY`
|
||
|
||
See [/providers/minimax](/providers/minimax) for setup details, model options, and config snippets.
|
||
|
||
### Local proxies (LM Studio, vLLM, LiteLLM, etc.)
|
||
|
||
Example (OpenAI‑compatible):
|
||
|
||
```json5
|
||
{
|
||
agents: {
|
||
defaults: {
|
||
model: { primary: "lmstudio/minimax-m2.1-gs32" },
|
||
models: { "lmstudio/minimax-m2.1-gs32": { alias: "Minimax" } }
|
||
}
|
||
},
|
||
models: {
|
||
providers: {
|
||
lmstudio: {
|
||
baseUrl: "http://localhost:1234/v1",
|
||
apiKey: "LMSTUDIO_KEY",
|
||
api: "openai-completions",
|
||
models: [
|
||
{
|
||
id: "minimax-m2.1-gs32",
|
||
name: "MiniMax M2.1",
|
||
reasoning: false,
|
||
input: ["text"],
|
||
cost: { input: 0, output: 0, cacheRead: 0, cacheWrite: 0 },
|
||
contextWindow: 200000,
|
||
maxTokens: 8192
|
||
}
|
||
]
|
||
}
|
||
}
|
||
}
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## CLI examples
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
clawdbot onboard --auth-choice opencode-zen
|
||
clawdbot models set opencode/claude-opus-4-5
|
||
clawdbot models list
|
||
```
|
||
|
