Hyphen Gateway API
Hyphen Gateway API
One key, every frontier model, one base URL.
The Hyphen gateway is an OpenAI-compatible LLM proxy. A single Hyphen
key — sk-hy-… — authenticates every endpoint below. Create one at
app.hyphen-solution.com
(Dashboard → API Keys → Create).
Authentication
All requests use HTTP Bearer auth:
Code
Models
The gateway serves four models. Pick one by tier:
| Model | Use for |
|---|---|
m2.5 | Fast, cheap, high-volume calls |
m2.7 | Balanced default for most agent work |
m3 | Strongest reasoning / large refactors |
text | Plain text completion |
Three stable aliases also map onto these — hyphen-fast = m2.5,
hyphen-sonnet = m2.7, hyphen-opus = m3 — and keep working as the
mapping is upgraded.
Budgets & caps
Every key carries a monthly USD budget. When the budget is exhausted the
gateway returns HTTP 429 with the reset date — there is no surprise
overage. Credits can extend a key past its cap. See the 429 responses
documented on each endpoint.
