Use Auriko with Hermes Agent, OpenClaw, and Kilo Code

Auriko works as a provider in all three. One API key, models from Anthropic, DeepSeek, Google, and others.


Auriko works as a provider in Hermes Agent, OpenClaw, and Kilo Code. One API key gives each tool access to models from Anthropic, DeepSeek, Google, xAI, and others.


Hermes Agent

Hermes Agent is a CLI agent framework from Nous Research. Auriko is available as a plugin. After installing the plugin, add your API key to ~/.hermes/.env:

AURIKO_API_KEY=ak_live_...

Set Auriko as the provider:

hermes config set model.provider auriko
hermes config set model.base_url https://api.auriko.ai/v1

After that, pass model IDs with --model:

hermes chat --model deepseek-v3.2

The Hermes Agent integration guide covers plugin installation, the full provider config, and the model list.


OpenClaw

OpenClaw is a local daemon that manages multiple LLM providers. Auriko works as a custom provider. Export your API key, register it with the daemon, and add the Auriko provider block to ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json:

export AURIKO_API_KEY="ak_live_..."
openclaw config set env.vars.AURIKO_API_KEY "$AURIKO_API_KEY"

After that, switch models in any session with /model auriko/deepseek-v4-flash.

The OpenClaw integration guide walks through the full config block and model registration.


Kilo Code

Kilo Code is a VS Code extension and CLI for working with language models. Add Auriko as a custom provider in the extension settings (Providers > Custom) or through kilo.json. Export your API key and run tasks with any model:

export AURIKO_API_KEY="ak_live_..."
kilo run "Summarize this repo" --model auriko/claude-sonnet-4-6

Set a default model in kilo.json at the project root or globally at ~/.config/kilo/kilo.json.

The Kilo Code integration guide covers VS Code setup, CLI config, and custom model registration.


What Auriko does with the request

Auriko routes each request to the cheapest available provider for that model. Routing decisions use request metadata only (token counts, context length, capability flags like streaming and tool use). We never see, log, or store your prompts, responses, or content. See how Auriko helps your arbitrage cost across providers.
