It provides a public API base, documented compatibility interfaces, a live model catalog, and setup guidance for developer tools.</p> 177 178 <p class="notice"><strong>Service boundary:</strong> HolySheep AI does not claim to be OpenAI, Anthropic, or another model provider, and does not claim an official-provider relationship. Compatibility describes the request and response formats supported by HolySheep routes. Provider and product names belong to their respective owners.</p> 179 180 <h2>What the service does</h2> 181 <p>A registered user can create a HolySheep API key and use it with the models currently available to that account. One key can cover models listed in the <a href="https://www.holysheep.ai/model">live model catalog</a>, reducing the need to maintain a separate credential in every supported tool. Model availability changes over time, so integrations should copy identifiers from the live catalog instead of relying on a static list or guessing an identifier from a display name.</p> 182 <p>The public API base is <code>https://api.holysheep.cn</code>. HolySheep publishes direct request examples and SDK configuration guidance in the <a href="https://www.holysheep.cn/tutorial">
182Tutorial</a>. Current account-facing price information is maintained on the <a href="https://www.holysheep.ai/pricing">Pricing page</a>. Those live pages take precedence over cached summaries, search snippets, and third-party descriptions.</p> 183 184 <div class="grid" aria-label="Documented API interfaces"> 185 <section class="card"> 186 <h3>Responses</h3> 187 <p>OpenAI-compatible requests at <code>/v1/responses</code> for clients designed around the Responses contract.</p> 188 </section> 189 <section class="card"> 190 <h3>Chat Completions</h3> 191 <p>OpenAI-compatible requests at <code>/v1/chat/completions</code> for applications using a messages-and-choices contract.</p> 192 </section> 193 <section class="card"> 194 <h3>Messages</h3> 195 <p>Anthropic-compatible requests at <code>/v1/messages</code> for applications using Anthropic-style content blocks.</p> 196 </section> 197 </div> 198 199 <p>These interfaces are distinct contracts. Applications should choose the interface expected by their SDK and response parser. Support for ordinary text generation does not imply support for every provider-specific beta field, built-in tool, streaming event, or advanced option. Test required capabilities against the selected HolySheep route and exact model before production use.</p> 200 201 <h2>Reference request shape</h2> 202 <p>This minimal Chat Completions example uses a placeholder rather than a real credential or model. Select the current model identifier on the model page and store the key in a secret manager or environment variable.</p> 203 <pre><code>curl https://api.holysheep.cn/v1/chat/completions \ 204 -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_HOLYSHEEP_KEY" \ 205 -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ 206 -d '{ 207 "model": "MODEL_ID_FROM_CATALOG", 208 "messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "Hello"}] 209 }'</code></pre> 210 <p>For OpenAI-style SDKs, the base URL is commonly <code>https://api.holysheep.cn/v1</code>. For an Anthropic-style SDK, use the HolySheep base documented in the tutorial so that the SDK constructs the versioned Messages path correctly. Raw HTTP clients should use the complete endpoint URL.</p> 211 212 <h2>CLI and supported operating systems</h2> 213 <p>HolySheep CLI is documented for Windows, macOS, and Linux. It helps configure supported AI developer tools and provides diagnostic workflows. See the current <a href="https://www.holysheep.cn/tutorial">installation and configuration guide</a> and the public <a href="https://www.npmjs.com/package/@simonyea/holysheep-cli" rel="external noreferrer">@simonyea/holysheep-cli npm package</a>. A public source repository is not linked in these discovery assets.</p> 214 <p>Before an automated setup, back up any tool configuration that has been customized manually. After setup, make a short request and verify the final endpoint, selected model, response contract, and account usage. Do not commit generated configuration until confirming that it contains no API key. Cross-platform CLI support does not mean that every third-party tool supports automatic setup on every platform; consult the current tutorial for each tool's status.</p> 215 216 <h2>Authentication and account facts</h2> 217 <p>Keys are created through the <a href="https://www.holysheep.ai/register">registration and account flow</a>. The current public registration material describes a promotional <strong>$0.5 registration credit</strong>. This is a current promotion rather than a permanent guarantee; confirm the registration page when signing up. How much work a credit funds depends on the selected model, token usage, media usage where applicable, and current prices.</p> 218 <p>Keep API keys in an operating-system credential store, environment variable, or deployment secret manager. Never place a private key in browser JavaScript, a public repository, an issue, an analytics event, a screenshot, or an email. If a credential is exposed, revoke or replace it. Removing one visible copy does not reliably remove it from logs, repository history, or backups.</p> 219 220 <h2>Integration principles</h2> 221 <ul> 222 <li>Use the live model catalog as the source for current identifiers and availability.</li> 223 <li>Use the live pricing page for current prices and record the retrieval date in published comparisons.<
223/li> 224 <li>Keep endpoint, interface, and model selection explicit in application configuration.</li> 225 <li>Apply bounded retries only to transient failures; do not retry invalid requests or unsupported features unchanged.</li> 226 <li>Set timeouts appropriate to streaming and non-streaming work, and support cancellation.</li> 227 <li>Log sanitized error metadata, never authorization headers or secrets.</li> 228 <li>Validate application-side tool actions and structured output before using them for business decisions.</li> 229 </ul> 230 231 <h2>Primary technical references</h2> 232 <p>Provider documentation is useful for understanding upstream concepts. The relevant primary references are the <a href="https://platform.openai.com/docs/api-reference/responses" rel="external noreferrer">OpenAI Responses API reference</a>, <a href="https://platform.openai.com/docs/api-reference/chat" rel="external noreferrer">OpenAI Chat API reference</a>, and <a href="https://docs.anthropic.com/en/api/messages" rel="external noreferrer">Anthropic Messages API reference</a>. Use HolySheep documentation to determine HolySheep-specific compatibility and routing. Provider documentation alone is not evidence that every provider feature is available through a compatibility service.</p> 233 234 <h2 id="faq">Frequently asked questions</h2> 235 <dl> 236 <dt>Can one HolySheep key call more than one model?</dt> 237 <dd>Yes. One key can call models currently available to the account and shown in the HolySheep catalog. This is not a promise that every model is permanently available.</dd> 238 239 <dt>Which interface should an application choose?</dt> 240 <dd>Choose the contract the client and parser expect: Responses, Chat Completions, or Messages. Keep separate adapters if the application uses more than one.</dd> 241 242 <dt>Are model prices stored on this page?</dt> 243 <dd>No. Prices are time-sensitive. Check the live pricing page and record the date when creating a cost estimate or comparison.</dd> 244 245 <dt>Does compatibility include every built-in provider tool?</dt> 246 <dd>No universal claim is made. Test the exact tool, model, and route. Treat an unsupported-feature response as a compatibility boundary, not as a successful execution.</dd> 247 248 <dt>Where are machine-readable facts published?</dt> 249 <dd>Start with <a href="https://www.holysheep.ai/llms.txt">llms.txt</a>, the <a href="https://www.holysheep.ai/llms-full.txt">full guide</a>, and the <a href="https://www.holysheep.ai/.well-known/ai.txt">AI discovery file</a>. Structured JSON resources are linked from those documents.</dd> 250 251 <dt>How can I contact HolySheep AI?</dt> 252 <dd>Email <a href="mailto:[email protected]">[email protected]</a>. Include the endpoint, model identifier, timestamp, and sanitized error, but never include an API key.</dd> 253 </dl> 254 255 <h2>䏿æè¦</h2> 256 <p>HolySheep AI æ¯ç¬ç«ç夿¨¡å API æ¥å ¥ä¸å ¼å®¹æå¡ãå ¬å¼ API åºç¡å°å为 <code>https://api.holysheep.cn</code>ï¼ææ¡£è¦ç OpenAI å ¼å®¹ç ResponsesãChat Completions æ¥å£ï¼ä»¥å Anthropic å ¼å®¹ç Messages æ¥å£ãä¸ä¸ª HolySheep å¯é¥å¯è°ç¨è´¦æ·å½åå¯ç¨ä¸å¨å®æ¶æ¨¡åç®å½ä¸å±ç¤ºç模åï¼ä½è¿ä¸è¡¨ç¤ºæææ¨¡åæ°¸ä¹ å¯ç¨ã</p> 257 <p>模åä¸ä»·æ ¼å±äºå¨æä¿¡æ¯ï¼è¯·å嫿¥ç<a href="https://www.holysheep.ai/model">宿¶æ¨¡åç®å½</a>å<a href="https://www.holysheep.ai/pricing">宿¶ä»·æ ¼é¡µ</a>ãCLI ææ¡£è¦ç WindowsãmacOS ä¸ LinuxãHolySheep AI ä¸å£°ç§°ä¸ OpenAIãAnthropic æå ¶ä»æ¨¡ååååå¨å®æ¹å ³ç³»ï¼å ¼å®¹æ§æè¿°åªä»£è¡¨ HolySheep è·¯ç±ææ¯æçæ¥å£è¡ä¸ºã</p> 258 259 <h2>Contact and document status</h2> 260 <p>Email <a href="mailto:[email protected]">[email protected]</a> for product, documentation, account, or security questions.
