Node.js openai SDK with avots

Connect in three fields

The official openai npm package takes a baseURL. Point it at avots and call chat.completions.create.

Setup

import OpenAI from 'openai';
const client = new OpenAI({
  apiKey: 'av_mcp_YOUR_KEY',
  baseURL: 'https://api.avots.ai/openai/v1',
});
const r = await client.chat.completions.create({
  model: 'anthropic/claude-sonnet-4.6',
  messages: [{ role: 'user', content: 'Hello!' }],
});

baseURL must include /v1, the SDK appends only the route. Use chat.completions.create for the broadest compatibility. Keep the key server-side; in the browser you would need dangerouslyAllowBrowser, which is not recommended with a real key.

Example request

curl https://api.avots.ai/openai/v1/chat/completions \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer av_mcp_YOUR_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "model": "anthropic/claude-sonnet-4.6",
    "messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "Hello!"}]
  }'

The same key also unlocks MCP tools

Your av_mcp_ key is not only for chat. avots also runs as an MCP server, so Node.js SDK can call avots creative tools, image, video, music, talking avatars, on the same key and the same balance.

Models and prices

Set the model field to any id below, or a lazy name like claude / gpt / gemini that maps to a sensible default.

* Price in ⚡ per 1,000,000 tokens, input / output (1000⚡ ≈ $1). Free models need a positive balance. Full list via GET /openai/v1/models.
