Overview

Type: Desktop coding and task agentPrimary Path: OpenAI-compatible Chat CompletionsSupport Confidence: Official custom-model path
WorkBuddy provides a visual custom-model editor for OpenAI-compatible APIs. You do not need to edit its local model file manually.

​
Configure AI Sonar

  1. Open Settings → Model.
  2. Add a model and select Custom as the provider.
  3. Enter the following values:
Keep Custom Protocol off. In standard mode WorkBuddy validates the base URL and appends /chat/completions. If you turn it on while entering only https://api.aisonar.dev/v1, requests are sent to the wrong path.

​
Advanced model settings

For the kimi-k3 example, use AI Sonar’s current public capability metadata: Click Save, then select kimi-k3 from WorkBuddy’s model picker.

​
Verify

Start with a small task that exercises both text generation and a safe tool read:

​
Troubleshooting

Confirm the endpoint is https://api.aisonar.dev/v1 and Custom Protocol is off. Do not paste /chat/completions when standard mode is selected.
Use kimi-k3, not kimi/kimi-k3. AI Sonar exposes model IDs without a provider prefix.
Enable Tool calling and make sure the selected AI Sonar model advertises tool-use support.
Screenshots of the model dialog can reveal endpoints or API keys. Mask credentials before sharing them and rotate any exposed key.
