Getting started

Quickstart

Sign up, install one CLI, run any tool through Omnizen. No env vars to copy, no config files to edit.

1. Sign up

Create an account with email, Google, or GitHub. You'll get 30 free credits to start — enough to try every model we route to.

2. Install the Omnizen CLI

One command, every platform (macOS, Linux, Windows):

bash
npm install -g omnizen-cli

3. Log in

bash
omnizen login

It opens your browser, you confirm, done. Your key is stored locally — you don't have to copy or paste it anywhere.

4. Launch any supported tool

The CLI spawns your favourite coding agent already wired up to Omnizen — your default claude or opencode setup stays untouched.

bash
omnizen launch claude       # Anthropic's Claude Code, routed through Omnizen
omnizen launch opencode    # SST OpenCode, OpenAI-shape, routed through Omnizen

That's the whole quickstart. The rest of this page is the manual path for tools we don't wrap yet, and the API shapes if you're integrating directly.

5. Pick your tool

Manual setup (if you can't use the CLI)

Omnizen speaks two API shapes natively. Set whichever your tool already uses — no code changes:

Anthropic-shape (Claude Code, etc.):

bash
export ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL="https://api.omnizen.ai"
export ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN="sk-omni-…"

OpenAI-shape (Cursor, OpenCode, Aider, Continue):

bash
export OPENAI_BASE_URL="https://api.omnizen.ai/v1"
export OPENAI_API_KEY="sk-omni-…"

Get your sk-omni-… key from dashboard.

Send a raw request (sanity check)

bash
curl https://api.omnizen.ai/v1/messages \
  -H "x-api-key: $ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN" \
  -H "anthropic-version: 2023-06-01" \
  -H "content-type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "model": "kimi-k2.6",
    "max_tokens": 256,
    "messages": [{ "role": "user", "content": "Hello" }]
  }'

Smart routing, manual selection

By default, Omnizen routes your request to the cheapest credible frontier model for the task. Pass an explicit model and we route to that one. Switch routing modes (Smart Quick, Smart Expert, or Manual) any time from the dashboard.
