- 4 Fill API Key with your relay key and API Host with https://api.llmrelay.dev/v1; leave API path empty so it defaults to /v1/chat/completions.

Config
# Chatbox: Settings -> Model Provider -> Add # Name: LLM Relay # API type: OpenAI API compatible # API Key: *** # API Host: https://api.llmrelay.dev/v1 # API path: (leave empty -> defaults to /v1/chat/completions) # Models: gpt-5.6-luna, claude-sonnet-5
Smoke test
Copy, paste, run. If you get JSON back with a message, you're good.
Press the Check button in the provider settings; it should show connection successful. Then start a new conversation on that model.
Gotchas
- !Models added without capability flags are treated as plain-text models, so vision or reasoning features stay off until you tick them.
- !API path defaults to /v1/chat/completions, so a host that already ends in /v1/chat/completions will produce a doubled path.
- !The docs' provider types are protocol families (OpenAI API compatible, Google Gemini compatible); there is no Anthropic Messages type, so Claude models must go through the relay's OpenAI-compatible surface.
