cd claude-code-openai
```
2. **Install UV**:
2. **Install dependencies**:
```bash
curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh
pip install -r requirements.txt
```
*(Ensure `requirements.txt` includes FastAPI, Uvicorn, LiteLLM, python-dotenv, httpx)*
3. **Configure your API keys**:
Create a `.env` file with:
```
OPENAI_API_KEY=your-openai-key
# Optional: customize which models are used
# For OpenAI models (default)
# BIG_MODEL=gpt-4o
# SMALL_MODEL=gpt-4o-mini
# For Gemini models
# BIG_MODEL=gemini-2.5-pro-preview-03-25
# SMALL_MODEL=gemini-2.0-flash
```
4. **Start the proxy server**:
3. **Configure Environment Variables**:
Copy the example environment file:
```bash
uv run uvicorn server:app --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8082
cp .env.example .env
```
Edit `.env` and fill in your API keys and model configurations:
* `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY`: (Optional) Needed only if proxying *to* Anthropic models.
* `OPENAI_API_KEY`: Your OpenAI API key (Required if using OpenAI models as fallback or primary).
* `GEMINI_API_KEY`: Your Google AI Studio (Gemini) API key (Required if using the default Gemini preference).
* `PREFERRED_PROVIDER` (Optional): Set to `google` (default) or `openai`. This determines the primary backend for mapping `haiku`/`sonnet`.
* `BIG_MODEL` (Optional): The model to map `sonnet` requests to. Defaults to `gemini-1.5-pro-latest` (if `PREFERRED_PROVIDER=google` and model is known) or `gpt-4o`.
* `SMALL_MODEL` (Optional): The model to map `haiku` requests to. Defaults to `gemini-1.5-flash-latest` (if `PREFERRED_PROVIDER=google` and model is known) or `gpt-4o-mini`.
**Mapping Logic:**
- If `PREFERRED_PROVIDER=google` (default), `haiku`/`sonnet` map to `SMALL_MODEL`/`BIG_MODEL` prefixed with `gemini/` *if* those models are in the server's known `GEMINI_MODELS` list.
- Otherwise (if `PREFERRED_PROVIDER=openai` or the specified Google model isn't known), they map to `SMALL_MODEL`/`BIG_MODEL` prefixed with `openai/`.
4. **Run the server**:
```bash
uvicorn server:app --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8082 --reload
```
