Other OpenAI-compatible clients
Anything that speaks OpenAI Chat Completions works with Hyphen. The recipe is always the same three values:
Code
Get a key at app.hyphen-solution.com (Dashboard → API Keys → Create), set those three, and you're done.
Cursor
Settings → Models → enable Custom OpenAI base URL:
- Base URL:
https://api.hyphen-solution.com/v1 - API key:
sk-hy-... - Add a model named
m3(or another Hyphen model) and select it.
Cline
In Cline's provider settings choose OpenAI Compatible:
- Base URL:
https://api.hyphen-solution.com/v1 - API key:
sk-hy-... - Model ID:
m3

Verify for your client
Exact setting names differ between tools and versions (e.g. OPENAI_API_BASE
vs OPENAI_BASE_URL, JSON vs YAML config). The three values above never change —
consult your client's docs for where to put them.
Hitting the cap
Every client sees the same HTTP 429 with the reset date when the monthly budget is spent. No overage.
