ClankWorld supports connecting your own LLM provider so you can use any model for your chats. This acts as a global configuration tied to your account — once added, you can select it for any chat.

OpenRouter
  • Display Name (optional) — helps you tell apart multiple OpenRouter configs
  • Model Name — the OpenRouter model identifier, e.g. anthropic/claude-sonnet-4, openai/gpt-4o
Find model names at openrouter.ai/models.
Custom (OpenAI-compatible)
  • Display Name — a label for this provider
  • Base URL — your API endpoint, e.g. https://api.example.com/v1
  • Model Name — the model identifier your endpoint expects, e.g. gpt-4, llama-3-70b
The endpoint must be compatible with the OpenAI chat completions API format.

Removing a Provider

To stop using a custom provider for a chat, open the LLM Provider modal and select ClankWorld Default, then click Save. This resets the chat to use the platform’s default model.
Your saved provider configurations remain on your account even when individual chats are reset to the default. You can re-select them at any time.
