Settings

Provider configuration. Keys live in .env and never leave the server — this page only reports whether they exist.

Setup

Create a .env file in the project root (or copy .env.example), then restart the dev server. Everything works without keys in mock mode — add keys to light up live integrations.

• VAST_API_KEY — enables live GPU offers, and real rentals when mock mode is off.
• OPENROUTER_API_KEY — enables real completions via the fallback network.
• HF_TOKEN — optional; needed to load gated models (Llama, Mistral) on real deploys.
• MAX_PRICE_PER_HOUR — safety cap for real rentals (default $3/hr).
• MOCK_MODE=false — ⚠ real provisioning: Deploy rents an actual GPU and bills your compute-provider account.
• Keys are read server-side only and are never stored in localStorage or shipped to the browser. This page only receives configured/not-configured flags.
