Introduction

The simplest walkthrough: what Zukko is, where to send requests, and how not to get lost.

In one sentence

Zukko is a single “outlet” for AI. You connect api.zukko.pro once with a fetch_... key, then call Claude, GPT, and other models as if they were one provider.

Three things to know

  1. API key — a secret like fetch_xxxxx from the dashboard → API keys. Never share it.
  2. API hosthttps://api.zukko.pro. That is Zukko’s server, not Anthropic/OpenAI directly.
  3. Model — a string like claude-sonnet-5 or gpt-4o in the request model field.

Which URL to use

ToolBase URL
Cursor / OpenAI SDK / most IDEshttps://api.zukko.pro/v1
Claude Code / Anthropic SDKhttps://api.zukko.pro

Both hit the same Zukko gateway. Only the request shape differs (OpenAI-style vs Anthropic-style).

First request without pain

  1. Sign up at zukko.pro.
  2. Top up balance (otherwise requests fail).
  3. Create a fetch_... key.
  4. Paste the key and base URL into your IDE or curl.
  5. Send a short prompt — if you get a reply, you’re good.

Minimal curl (Anthropic-style):

bash
curl https://api.zukko.pro/v1/messages \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer fetch_YOUR_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "anthropic-version: 2023-06-01" \
  -d '{"model":"claude-sonnet-5","max_tokens":256,"messages":[{"role":"user","content":"Hello"}]}'

Common mistakes

  • 401 / unauthorized — bad or missing key. Check Bearer fetch_....
  • 402 / insufficient funds — top up in the dashboard.
  • 404 / model not found — typo in the model name. See the models list in the docs.
  • Still pointing at the provider URL — the IDE must use api.zukko.pro, not api.anthropic.com or api.openai.com.

Download API for AI

This is a knowledge base for the full Zukko API: URLs, keys, models, request examples, integrations.

Download one file and drop it into ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, or any other AI — it will know the full API and can write code / configs correctly.

MD — best for AIs (recommended). TXT, DOC, and PDF are also available.
