TrustedRouter exposes an OpenAI-compatible API at https://api.trustedrouter.com/v1. You can use it from Kilo Code with the built-in TrustedRouter provider.

Getting an API Key

1. Sign in to the TrustedRouter console.
2. Open API keys.
3. Create a key and copy it.

Configuration in Kilo Code

VSCode

Open Settings (gear icon), go to the Providers tab, choose TrustedRouter, and enter your API key.

Then select a TrustedRouter model such as trustedrouter/auto, trustedrouter/zdr, or trustedrouter/e2e.

CLI

Method 1 — /connect (recommended)

Run kilo, then use the /connect command, select TrustedRouter, and paste your API key when prompted:

kilo
# then, inside Kilo, run:
/connect

Method 2 — config file

Set the API key as an environment variable:

export TRUSTEDROUTER_API_KEY="your-api-key"

Then configure the built-in TrustedRouter provider in your kilo.json file:

{
  "provider": {
    "trustedrouter": {
      "env": ["TRUSTEDROUTER_API_KEY"],
      "models": {
        "auto": {
          "name": "TrustedRouter Auto"
        },
        "zdr": {
          "name": "TrustedRouter ZDR"
        },
        "e2e": {
          "name": "TrustedRouter E2E"
        }
      }
    }
  },
  "model": "trustedrouter/auto"
}

Common Models

• trustedrouter/auto routes across healthy supported providers.
• trustedrouter/zdr prefers zero-data-retention routes.
• trustedrouter/e2e uses end-to-end encrypted routes where available.

Tips and Notes

• TrustedRouter uses the OpenAI-compatible chat completions API.
• You can verify the hosted gateway and attestation story at https://trust.trustedrouter.com/.
• To use a specific model instead of a router alias, add it under provider.trustedrouter.models and select it in Kilo Code.
