Agent skills
Teach your coding agent the Concentrate API with the open skills library.
https://api.concentrate.ai/v1, use an API key that starts with sk-cn-v1-, and pick a model in provider/model-id format. See the Quickstart for a from-scratch setup.
What every integration has in common
Regardless of which tool you connect, the setup comes down to the same values.Anthropic-native clients append
/v1 to the base URL themselves, so leave it off. Setting ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL to the /v1 value produces /v1/v1/... paths and 404s. They also send the x-api-key header rather than Authorization: Bearer; Concentrate accepts both, prioritizing Bearer when both are present.What you get
- One key for every model. Access 150+ models from 20+ authors across 20+ providers through a single API key, with no per-provider accounts to manage. See the models for the current catalog.
- Built-in observability. Usage, spend, latency, providers, models, and cache hits across your whole org, with no third-party integration.
- Team-scale spend management. Budgets at the organization, team, developer, and key level.
- Strategy-driven auto routing. Use
model: "auto"with explicit optimization for cost, latency, or performance. See Auto Routing.
