# Connect your tool

> Point the tool you already use — Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, or any OpenAI/Anthropic SDK — at the AI Reserve gateway.

The fastest way to see the gateway work: point the agent harness you already run at
AI Reserve. Both take your `aireserve_api_…` key with no code changes —
every request they make is metered and billed through your organization's wallet.

Keep your existing code. The gateway speaks the provider-native wire formats directly, so
**stock OpenAI and Anthropic SDKs and framework providers work unmodified**
(and so do the Claude Code and Codex harnesses above) — change the
base URL, use your AI Reserve API key, keep everything else. Cross-provider calls are
bridged for you:
Claude models answer OpenAI-SDK calls and GPT models answer Anthropic-SDK calls, all
metered against the same key. (Teams on AWS Bedrock have an equally seamless path — see
[Migrating from Bedrock](/migrate/from-bedrock) and the
[official AI Reserve SDKs](/getting-started/quickstart).) Runnable versions of every snippet
in these guides live in `examples/gateway/` in the repository.

<Note>
  **The one gotcha — base URL suffix.** OpenAI-flavored clients expect the
  `/v1` suffix on the base URL (they append `/chat/completions`).
  Anthropic-flavored clients expect the **host root without `/v1`**
  (they append `/v1/messages` themselves). Each snippet shows the right form.

Prefer to stay on one dependency? The [official AI Reserve SDKs
(Python & TypeScript) expose these same two wire formats natively](/api-reference/sdk-wire-formats) —
`client.chat.completions.create(...)` and
`client.messages.create(...)` on the AI Reserve client.

## Model discovery

`GET /v1/models` returns the OpenAI-shaped model list, so SDK and framework
discovery calls (`client.models.list()`, LangChain provider probes) work out of
the box. Anthropic-native clients can also call
`POST /v1/messages/count_tokens` for free token counting.
