Use Aider with WebikAI

Aider talks to any OpenAI-compatible endpoint through two environment variables and an openai/-prefixed model name.

Setup

  1. Get a beta account and copy your wk_live_... key.
  2. Point Aider's OpenAI client at the WebikAI edge:
bash
export OPENAI_API_BASE=https://api.webik.ai/v1
export OPENAI_API_KEY=wk_live_...
  1. Start Aider with the canonical model ID (the openai/ prefix tells Aider which client to use; the part after it is sent as model):
bash
aider --model openai/kwaipilot/kat-coder-v2.5-dev

Aider streams responses and uses standard usage accounting, so its token report matches the engine-reported usage your wallet settles from.
