Roo Code
OpenAI Compatible provider
Roo Code (a Cline fork) uses the same OpenAI Compatible provider path. Its modes each carry their own model setting, so a practical setup is a cheap model for the Ask and Architect modes and a stronger one for Code.
Code
Provider: OpenAI Compatible
Base URL: https://starseaapi.com
Model ID: glm-5.3-flash (per-mode)
Quickstart
- Create an API key — Sign up, then create a token in the console. A key works across the whole catalogue; scope and quota can be restricted per key.
- Point your client at the endpoint — Set base_url to https://starseaapi.com/v1 and use the key. Any OpenAI-compatible SDK, IDE or desktop client works.
- Pick a model — Start with a low-cost tier for prototyping. Every id in the catalogue can be swapped without touching code.
- Watch cost, not just quality — Output tokens are usually priced at a multiple of input, and reasoning models emit thinking tokens. Keep stable prompt prefixes first so caching applies.
