Get the key
- Open platform.openai.com and go to API keys.
- Create a new key and copy it once — OpenAI shows it only once.
- Paste it into the vault in the next step.
Add it to the vault
- Open the console and go to Settings → API keys.
- Choose OpenAI and paste the key.
- Save. The key is encrypted with AES-256-GCM.
- The agent now uses it through the proxy — it never reaches your device.
Pick the model
In Settings → Model, choose a default or leave it on auto. Auto routes each task to the cheapest key that fits, so a quick question does not burn your expensive model.
Test it

Notes
⚠
Never paste a key into a prompt or a config file on the device. The whole point of the vault is that the key has no reason to leave the platform.
