175      <h1>About HolySheep AI</h1>
176      <p class="lead">HolySheep AI is an independent multi-model API access service. 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>
