Kilo Code supports v0, Vercel's AI model provider that offers an OpenAI-compatible API. This allows you to use v0's models with Kilo Code through the familiar OpenAI API interface.

## Prerequisites

To use v0 with Kilo Code, you'll need:

- A team account with Vercel v0
- A v0 API key

## Configuration

**VSCode**

Open **Settings** (gear icon) and go to the **Providers** tab to add a **Custom provider**. Select **OpenAI Compatible** under **Provider API**, set the base URL to `https://api.v0.dev/v1`, and enter your v0 API key.

The extension stores this in your `kilo.json` config file. You can also edit the config file directly — see the **CLI** tab for the file format.

**CLI**

v0 uses the OpenAI-compatible provider. Set the API key and base URL in your config:

**Environment variable:**

```bash
export OPENAI_API_KEY="your-v0-api-key"
```

**Config file** (`~/.config/kilo/kilo.json` or `./kilo.json`):

```jsonc
{
  "provider": {
    "openai-compatible": {
      "env": ["OPENAI_API_KEY"],
      "baseURL": "https://api.v0.dev/v1",
    },
  },
}
```

Then set your default model:

```jsonc
{
  "model": "openai-compatible/v0-1.0-md",
}
```

## Troubleshooting

- **"Invalid API Key":** Double-check that you've entered the API key correctly.
- **"Model Not Found":** Make sure you're using the correct model ID (`v0-1.0-md`).
- **Connection Errors:** Verify the Base URL is correct (`https://api.v0.dev/v1`).
- **Access Issues:** Confirm that your Vercel v0 team account is active and properly set up.
