LLM configuration ​

Map a model provider to a default model and a vault key, so agents and the Playground know which key to use for that provider.

Important, saved in this browser. LLM configurations are currently stored in your browser only. They are not shared with colleagues and do not follow you to another computer or browser. Each person sets up their own. Agents themselves always name their key in their Credentials step, which is saved with the agent.


1. What it is and why it matters ​

When you build an agent you choose a provider, a model and a key. A configuration remembers "for OpenAI, use GPT-4.1 mini with openai_key", so that choice is filled in for you. Keys stay in the Vault, this page stores only which secret each provider should use.


2. Add a configuration ​

  1. Open LLM Config and click New configuration.
  2. Choose the AI Provider: AWS Bedrock, Anthropic, OpenAI, Azure OpenAI, Google Gemini, LiteLLM, Mistral, Ollama (local), llama.cpp (local), Llama API, Amazon SageMaker or Writer.
  3. Choose the Model. Where the provider has no preset list, type the model's identifier.
  4. Choose the API Key (from Vault), or Create new to add one.
  5. Click Save configuration.

One configuration per provider: saving another for the same provider replaces it. Remove one with the bin icon on its row.
