What is Sideren

Sideren serves its model catalog through a single gateway that is compatible with the OpenAI Chat Completions API, the OpenAI Responses API, and the Anthropic Messages API. Swap your base URL and key; keep the rest of your stack exactly as it is. Every model has one public id: closed-weight models are called by their plain name (gpt-6.1-sol), open-weight models are called @sdn/<name> (@sdn/glm-5.3). The older spellings (sdn-glm-5.3, glm-5.3) keep resolving to the same model. What you get on the other side of that swap:
  • The whole catalog, one key — from fast, near-free small models to premium reasoning and vision. Each plan includes a set of models and higher plans add more; pay as you go reaches all of them. See Models and Plans & limits.
  • The protocols agents speak — Chat Completions, Responses and Messages, plus legacy Completions, embeddings, token counting and batches. Streaming on every chat dialect. Claude Code, Codex and the OpenAI and Anthropic SDKs work unmodified.
  • Sessions that keep moving — if a model can’t answer, the engine keeps your session moving instead of failing the turn. See Reliability.
  • Predictable plans — monthly credits, with published rate limits. See Plans & limits.

Base URL

The gateway lives at a single origin. Every endpoint is served under /v1.
API keys are created in the dashboard and start with sdn_. The Anthropic-style endpoints accept the key as x-api-key; the OpenAI-style endpoints accept it as a bearer token. See Authentication for the details.
