    Stop the URL at /v1. SillyTavern adds /chat/completions and /models itself. The key comes from the console.

    Click Connect. Available Models then lists every model id the key can call, or type one into Enter a Model ID. Any chat model on the Models page works here.

    Response settings

    • Max Response Length (tokens) caps each reply, and a model that thinks spends part of it thinking. At 300, a GLM-5.3 Abliterated reply stopped mid-sentence; at 1000 it finished.
    • Streaming works on all four models above.
    • Top K at 0 means off, and the API treats it that way. A value above 0 goes to the model.
    • Each reply is billed by its tokens from the prepaid balance. The console's Usage page lists every request with its charge.

    Check it

    Confirm the key before you connect:

    shell
    curl https://api.uplinkswitch.com/v1/models -H "Authorization: Bearer $UPLINKSWITCH_API_KEY"

    A list of model ids means the key works. Then click Connect in SillyTavern.
