Prompt for your current agent

Paste this into your current coding agent and let it make the Pi config changes.

Configure this machine's Pi agent to use Yolo-Auto.

Requirements:
- Ask me for my Yolo-Auto API key if I have not provided it, and do not print the full key back to me.
- Preserve all existing Pi providers, models, auth, comments/format as much as possible.
- Update or create ~/.pi/agent/models.json and merge in this provider block under providers.Yolo-Auto:
{
  "providers": {
    "Yolo-Auto": {
      "baseUrl": "https://yolo-auto.com/v1",
      "api": "openai-completions",

  }
}
- If Pi has a default model/provider setting, set the default model to qwen3.6-35b-a3b for Yolo-Auto only when that setting exists and can be changed safely.
- Validate the JSON after editing.
- Report the exact files changed and a one-command way for me to test it.

OpenClaw

Claude Code

Bridge through LiteLLM's Anthropic-compatible endpoint.

Claude Code expects Anthropic Messages API. Use LiteLLM as a local bridge to Yolo-Auto's OpenAI-compatible endpoint.

1. Save this as litellm-yolo-auto.yaml

model_list:
  - model_name: qwen3.6-35b-a3b
    litellm_params:
      model: openai/qwen3.6-35b-a3b
      api_key: os.environ/YOLO_AUTO_API_KEY
      api_base: https://yolo-auto.com/v1

litellm_settings:
  master_key: os.environ/LITELLM_MASTER_KEY

2. Start the bridge and launch Claude Code

# Install LiteLLM proxy support
uv tool install 'litellm[proxy]'

# Set secrets locally. Use your real yolo_ key and generate your own proxy key.
export YOLO_AUTO_API_KEY="YOUR_yolo_API_KEY_HERE"
export LITELLM_MASTER_KEY="sk-local-proxy-key-change-me"

# Start the Anthropic-compatible bridge. Save the YAML above as litellm-yolo-auto.yaml first.
litellm --config ./litellm-yolo-auto.yaml --host 127.0.0.1 --port 4000

# In another shell, point Claude Code at LiteLLM's Anthropic Messages API bridge.
export ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL="http://127.0.0.1:4000"
export ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN="$LITELLM_MASTER_KEY"
export CLAUDE_CODE_ENABLE_GATEWAY_MODEL_DISCOVERY=1
claude --model qwen3.6-35b-a3b

Prompt for your current agent

Paste this into your current coding agent and let it set up the LiteLLM bridge.

Configure Claude Code to use Yolo-Auto through a local LiteLLM bridge.

Context:
- Claude Code expects an Anthropic Messages API endpoint.
- Yolo-Auto is OpenAI-compatible, so LiteLLM should bridge Claude Code -> LiteLLM /v1/messages -> Yolo-Auto /v1/chat/completions.

Requirements:
- Ask me for my Yolo-Auto API key if I have not provided it, and do not print the full key back to me.
- Install LiteLLM proxy support only if needed and after confirming the package manager/uv availability.
- Create or update a local litellm-yolo-auto.yaml with:
model_list:
  - model_name: qwen3.6-35b-a3b
    litellm_params:
      model: openai/qwen3.6-35b-a3b
      api_key: os.environ/YOLO_AUTO_API_KEY
      api_base: https://yolo-auto.com/v1

litellm_settings:
  master_key: os.environ/LITELLM_MASTER_KEY
- Set local environment variables without committing secrets:
  YOLO_AUTO_API_KEY=<my yolo_ key>
  LITELLM_MASTER_KEY=<a generated local proxy key>
  ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL=http://127.0.0.1:4000
  ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN=$LITELLM_MASTER_KEY
  CLAUDE_CODE_ENABLE_GATEWAY_MODEL_DISCOVERY=1
- Show me the command to start LiteLLM and the command to launch Claude Code with qwen3.6-35b-a3b.
- Report the exact files changed and keep all secrets redacted.
