Troubleshooting
"Invalid API key" or auth errors
: Double-check your API key and make sure the base URL includes /v1 at the end.
Model not found : Use the exact model ID from Available Models. Cline does not auto-complete model names for custom providers.
Slow responses : Increase the timeout in Cline's settings. Complex tasks may need more time, especially with larger models.
