Install
Install Kilo Code from the VS Code Extensions marketplace.
Reload VS Code after the install finishes.
Open Kilo Code settings and add a new profile.
Pick OpenAI compatible as the provider.
Use these values:
- Base URL:
https://app.firmware.ai/api/v1
- API key: your Firmware API key
- Model: any model from the models list
If a model isn’t in the dropdown, type it in manually.
A good first check is gpt-4o.
Pick a model
Pick a model ID from the models list.
If you want a safe default, start with gpt-4o.
Run
Open the Kilo Code chat panel and start a prompt.
Switch profiles if you want different default models.
Troubleshoot
A 401 usually means the API key is missing or incorrect.
A “model not found” error means the model ID doesn’t match the list.
