Global AI is compatible with the OpenAI, Claude, and Gemini protocols, so almost every mainstream AI client can connect. This page summarizes the shared parameters and selection guidance you need before you start. See the client-specific pages below for step-by-step configuration.

Before you integrate

Complete these two steps before configuring any client:
1

Add quota

If you already have a redemption code, go to the Redemption code section on globalai.vip/wallet, paste it, and click Redeem. You can also top up online directly on the site.
2

Get an API key

Visit globalai.vip/keys and copy the default system token. If there isn’t one, click Add token to create one. Keys start with sk-. See Token management for details.

Common configuration parameters

Most clients need only these four pieces of information:
When you paste the API URL and key, check for stray whitespace at the start or end. Extra spaces cause connection failures.

A note on Claude model cost

Agent-style tools like Claude Code, Cline, and Roo Code resend the full conversation history and tool call context every round. This is especially heavy for long sessions or large codebases, and actual charges can be much higher than intuition suggests. Before you start:
  • Create a dedicated token for Agent-style tools in Token management so you can track spend separately by token name in the Usage logs.
  • Keep Usage logs open while working. Filter by time and token to inspect each request’s token count and quota deduction.
  • If a single task consumes more than expected, trim the system prompt, shorten CLAUDE.md and AGENTS.md context files, or use a cheaper model such as Claude Haiku for lightweight tasks.
