APIClaw

Qoder

Connect Qoder CLI to APIClaw with a custom OpenAI model entry in settings.json.

Prerequisites

  1. Create an API key in the API Keys dashboard.
  2. Copy a full model ID from the model hub.

What Qoder supports today

Qoder adds custom models through a wizard, not through hand-edited settings: its own documentation says not to configure BYOK manually in settings.json. In the CLI run /model, open the Custom tab, and follow the prompts. The IDE's Models panel works the same way (+ Add, then pick a provider).

The catch is that the wizard offers a fixed provider list rather than a free-form base URL field, so an arbitrary OpenAI-compatible gateway is not guaranteed to be selectable. Check the Custom tab in your build before planning around it.

If you are building on the Qoder SDK

The SDK's custom-model object does take a base URL:

json
{
  "provider": "apiclaw",
  "model": "YOUR_MODEL_ID",
  "api_key": "sk-your-apiclaw-key",
  "url": "https://apiclaw.biz/v1"
}

If Qoder does not work for you

Any of Cline, Kilo Code, OpenCode or Cursor accept an arbitrary base URL today.
