# Roo Code

> Use MaxAPI in Roo Code's Code, Architect, Ask, and Debug modes.

[Roo Code](https://github.com/RooVetGit/Roo-Code) supports custom OpenAI-compatible model providers.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Install and open settings">
    Install Roo Code, then open its model or provider settings.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Add MaxAPI">
    | Field    | Value                      |
    | -------- | -------------------------- |
    | Provider | `OpenAI Compatible`        |
    | Base URL | `https://api.maxapi.ai/v1` |
    | API Key  | `YOUR_API_KEY`             |
    | Model    | `YOUR_MODEL_ID`            |
  </Step>

  <Step title="Verify">
    Save the configuration, run the built-in connection test when available, then start a new chat.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Warning>
  Store API keys only on trusted devices. Never commit a real key to Git or share it with others.
</Warning>

<Note>
  Some clients restrict agent mode or autocomplete when using third-party endpoints. These restrictions come from the client, not MaxAPI.
