> Configure a chat model in Continue

## Configure

Add a model to your Continue configuration:

```yaml theme={null}
models:
  - name: Bianxie AI
    provider: openai
    model: your-model
    apiBase: https://api.bianxie.ai/v1
    apiKey: API_KEY
```

Inject the real key through Continue's supported environment-variable or secrets mechanism. Do not commit it to a project configuration file.

Reload VS Code, select **Bianxie AI** in Continue, and send a simple chat request. Chat and Tab Autocomplete can require different model capabilities, so configure autocomplete only with a supported model. If the model is missing, check YAML indentation; for `401`, check secret injection; for `404`, retain `/v1`.
