Custom apiBase for OpenAI-compatible providers

Good fit for coding-assistant experiments

Keep keys outside shared config files

Test before changing daily workflow

Use a small prompt and a low-risk file context first. Confirm the selected model responds as expected before using it on private repos or long-running agent tasks.

Setup checklist

1. Create or copy a TKEN key

Store the key as TKEN_API_KEY locally. Avoid pasting production keys into screenshots, issues or team chat.

2. Add a TKEN model entry

Configure Continue with provider openai, a TKEN model name and apiBase set to https://www.tken.shop/v1.

3. Verify behavior with a small task

Test response quality, latency, tool behavior and cost before assigning large codebase tasks.

Disclosure: TKEN is an independent third-party API gateway. It is not affiliated with Continue or with the upstream model providers referenced on this page.

Add TKEN to Continue

Use the same OpenAI-compatible endpoint in Continue, SDK tests and proxy tools so your team has one repeatable configuration.
