AI Tool Setup
Cursor
Use Felo API Platform in Cursor through custom OpenAI-compatible settings where available.
Use this guide when your Cursor setup supports custom OpenAI-compatible endpoints or external provider overrides.
Before You Start
You need one Felo API Platform key. The same key works across model protocols, agent clients, Search, Web Fetch, PPT, Mindmap, LiveDocs, X Search, YouTube Subtitling, Landing Page, and SuperAgent APIs.
export FELO_API_KEY="YOUR_API_KEY"Recommended Setup
| Item | Value |
|---|---|
| Best for | AI coding inside an editor, repo questions, and code generation |
| Protocol | OpenAI-compatible Chat Completions |
| Base URL | https://openapi.felo.ai/api/v1 |
| Model example | claude-sonnet-4-6 |
| API key | Your FELO_API_KEY |
Configure Cursor
Set the environment variables first:
export FELO_API_KEY="YOUR_API_KEY"
export OPENAI_API_KEY="$FELO_API_KEY"
export OPENAI_BASE_URL="https://openapi.felo.ai/api/v1"Client fields
| Field | Value |
|---|---|
| Provider type | OpenAI-compatible custom provider |
| API key | Your FELO_API_KEY |
| Base URL | https://openapi.felo.ai/api/v1 |
| Model | claude-sonnet-4-6 |
If your Cursor version does not expose custom base URL settings, use Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode, or another client that supports custom providers.
Verify the Setup
Run a small task after saving the configuration:
Open Cursor and run a small chat or code edit after saving the provider settings.If the tool starts and answers with the selected model, the provider setup is ready.
Troubleshooting
| Issue | What to check |
|---|---|
| Authentication fails | Confirm the key is copied correctly and exported as FELO_API_KEY |
| Tool calls the wrong provider | Check that the Felo provider is selected for the current workspace or session |
| Base URL error | Use https://openapi.felo.ai/api/v1 for OpenAI-compatible clients and https://openapi.felo.ai/api for Anthropic-compatible clients |
| Model not found | Choose a model that appears in your Felo model list |
| The tool ignores local config | Move provider settings to the user-level config if the client requires it |
