Quick start / OpenAI-compatible API

Three changes. One request.

Keep your SDK. Set the GorgeousGPT key, point it at our base URL, and request the model you actually want.

Base URL
https://gorgeousgpt.com/v1
Wire API
OpenAI Responses
Origin
One hostname for landing, account, and API

01 / Setup

Nothing proprietary to learn.

Change the base URL

Replace the default OpenAI endpoint with https://gorgeousgpt.com/v1.

Name the model

Pass an explicit model ID from the current API reference. Do not use an automatic model selector.

02 / Examples

Use the client you already have.

cURL / Responses API
Terminal
curl https://gorgeousgpt.com/v1/responses \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $GORGEOUSGPT_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "model": "gpt-5.5",
    "input": "Reply with one clear sentence."
  }'
Python / OpenAI SDK
Python
from openai import OpenAI

client = OpenAI(
    api_key="YOUR_API_KEY",
    base_url="https://gorgeousgpt.com/v1",
)

response = client.responses.create(
    model="gpt-5.5",
    input="Reply with one clear sentence.",
)

print(response.output_text)
JavaScript / OpenAI SDK
JavaScript
import OpenAI from "openai";

const client = new OpenAI({
  apiKey: process.env.GORGEOUSGPT_API_KEY,
  baseURL: "https://gorgeousgpt.com/v1",
});

const response = await client.responses.create({
  model: "gpt-5.5",
  input: "Reply with one clear sentence.",
});

console.log(response.output_text);
Codex CLI / Provider profile

Add an explicit provider to ~/.codex/config.toml. The Responses wire API avoids depending on a client’s default transport.

~/.codex/config.toml
[model_providers.gorgeousgpt]
name = "GorgeousGPT"
base_url = "https://gorgeousgpt.com/v1"
env_key = "GORGEOUSGPT_API_KEY"
wire_api = "responses"
Terminal
GORGEOUSGPT_API_KEY="token" \
  codex -c model_provider=gorgeousgpt
Other OpenAI-compatible clients

For Roo Code, OpenCode, OpenClaw, Go, Java, C#, and other compatible clients, set the same three values:

Configuration
provider = "OpenAI compatible"
base_url = "https://gorgeousgpt.com/v1"
api_key = "YOUR_API_KEY"
model = "gpt-5.5"

03 / Contract

Explicit in. Explicit out.

Model selection
Send an explicit model ID with every request.
Compatibility
OpenAI-compatible request and response shapes; protocol conversion may occur where an upstream wire format requires it.
Failures
A model error must be visible to the client—not disguised as a successful response from a cheaper model.
Content retention
Request content is not a conversation-history feature. See the exact operational and legal boundaries in the Privacy Policy.
Billing
Usage is charged against your prepaid balance and shown in the account application.

04 / Send

Your first request should be boring.

If it is not, keep the request ID and contact support without including your API token or prompt content.
