What works

Supported in Cline.

Cline's OpenAI-compatible provider unlocks the full agent loop against ubc now:

Plan & Act

Cline plans a change, then edits files — all calls go to ubc now.

Terminal commands

Command suggestions are generated by your chosen ubc now model.

Multi-file edits

Larger refactors stream from the same endpoint and budget.

Setup

Connect in a few steps.

Mint a ubc now key

Verify with Self and mint a key at /api-keys. Agentic tools burn tokens quickly, so keep an eye on your daily budget.

Open Cline's API settings

In VS Code, open the Cline panel → settings (gear). For “API Provider”, choose “OpenAI Compatible”.

Fill in the connection

Set the Base URL and API Key, then enter a Model ID from /v1/models.

Cline · OpenAI Compatible

Base URL   https://ubcnow.ai/v1
API Key    ubc_sk_…
Model ID   <model-id>

Start a task

Type a task in the Cline input and let it plan. Watch the request count against your budget in the ubc now usage page.

Examples

Copy, paste, run.

Pick a capable model id

Agentic work benefits from a strong model. List options and choose one for the Model ID field.

List the models ubc now serves

curl https://ubcnow.ai/v1/models \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer ubc_sk_…"

Troubleshooting

If something's off.

Cline stops mid-task with a budget error

Agents make many calls. If you hit a 402, your daily budget is spent — it resets at 00:00 UTC. Earn credits via quests on the usage page to extend a session.

401 Unauthorized

Your key must be an active ubc now key (it starts with ubc_sk_). Mint or re-mint one at /api-keys, and make sure it is sent as a Bearer token, not pasted into a username field.

402 / budget exhausted

You have spent your daily token allowance. It resets at 00:00 UTC. Image and chat usage both draw from the same daily pool.

Model not found

Use an exact model id from https://ubcnow.ai/v1/models — copy it verbatim. ubc now does not alias OpenAI model names like "gpt-4o"; pick one of the models it actually serves.

Give your agent a free brain.

Mint a key, pick the OpenAI Compatible provider, and let Cline build.
