Kilo Code

Kilo Code's custom provider setting lets you supply any OpenAI-compatible base URL. Point it at Tempr Gateway and one provider entry gives you every model on your allowlist — Claude, GPT, Gemini, whatever you've configured — instead of switching providers per model.

  1. Create a virtual key

    In the Portal, create a Gateway virtual key. Keys are prefixed tvk_ and shown once at creation.

  2. Add a provider key

    Gateway is BYOK: add a key for at least one provider from the supported list.

  3. Add a custom provider

    Open Kilo Code's settings (gear icon) → Providers tab → Custom provider. Set Base URL to https://api.temprhq.io/v1 and paste your virtual key as the API key (no Bearer prefix — Kilo Code adds that automatically).

  4. Pick a model

    Kilo Code fetches the available model list automatically from GET /v1/models; choose one from your allowlist.
