VS Code

VS Code does not natively support adding custom models. To use FloTorch, install one of the OpenAI‑compatible extensions below. Each extension allows you to configure the Base URL, API Key, and Model.

Prerequisites

Before configuring VS Code, complete these steps in the FloTorch Console:

1. Register or log in to FloTorch

   • Go to the FloTorch Console and create an account or sign in.

2. Create a custom model

   • In the Console, go to Gateway → Model Registry → Models and create a model with your preferred configuration.
   • Note the model name (e.g. flotorch/<model-name>).

3. Create an API key

   • Go to Workspace → Settings → API Keys and create an API key.
   • Copy and store the key securely; you will need it when configuring the extension.

Summary

FloTorch integrates with OpenAI-compatible CLIs and editors. In VS Code, use any of the extensions above (Kilo, Continue.dev, Roo Code) with the same Flotorch gateway URL, API key, and model name. Other OpenAI-compatible tools—such as Cline, vscode-openai, and similar extensions that let you set a custom base URL, API key, and model also work.
